I'd be happy with a duck with a scar on his leg where the band fell off.

That would just make me more mad  :chuckle: :bash:

Keeps them from biting you.

I didn't know you were supposed to keep that jewelry stuff on their legs!!! It screwed with my microwave when I cook them so I just toss them all out!

You must be a bio, sancutary or part of DFW?  Can't keep those otherwise.
Cut em!

In SW Washington you have to take them to a check station.  They are making sure your not shooting duskies.  You can only hunt them on specific days from 8-4pm.  The check station marks the birds they check.  If they aren't marked and in route to a check station, they will ticket you.
Cut em!
