what's your favorite part of the hunt?

[shoot4Boone]

Mine is when the first hint of orange sun creeps over the water peeking around the cold well placed dekes floating in the water, fog hovering and the sound of whistling wings landing in front of you.  nothing you can do as it's still too dark to shoot but the shuffle of rubber boots on the floor of the aluminum boat and the smell of coffee in the blind brings back memories every time I think of it.

I have to agree

shooting stuff and killing it...DUUUUHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!

i think seeing my set up work the way i planned it is  the best part.  seeing them cup their wings and hearing them tear through the wind  with their landing gear down is unbeatable.

I would have to say spending time with my dad and friends in the blind takes the #1 spot, but when the ducks are coming in and the landing gear goes down and the wings cup, thats a very close second. And hopefully this year fooling some geese with some homemade dekes.

oh yeah and of course the shooting part is pretty sweet too.

Seeing the dogs work...................got love a creature that will swim for a duck (cold a$$ water) and want nothing more then to do it again.

I LOVE to see the birds fully commit.  Flaps out, Gear down and heading right for the decoys.

I know I did my job right then.

Getting set up before the sunrise, just getting there has been our problem all year.

The best for me is seeing guys hit long shots from birds we miss in our spread.  I just like to see the ducks drop from high, takes skill for long shots.

Don't get me wrong we wait till they commit, but for some reason this year we've missed probably about 20 birds in the spread.  But hit some on their way out, weirdest thing ever.

when you wake up in the morning and open the door to see the wind blowing and the rain coming down in sheets.... oh ya, the shooting part is kind of a biggy too!

[LOVEMYLABXS]

It beats workin anyday  no matter what happens but not in any particular order the shooting the smackdown on ground or water but my number one reason is as was stated earlier to watch a dog go full bore to do what they LOVE to do RETRIEVE BIRDS

Shooting , seeing + result of shooting, seeing dog go out to critter, seeing dog come back with critter, AND then I get to see him do the Joe Namath as he is VERY proud of his bird hunting ability .
