Double Band (UPDATE)
« on: November 30, 2010, 05:27:09 PM »
So here it goes. I was jump shooting on my buddies farm when a small group flew over us. I had the bead right on the drake and boom.... 1/10 of a second too late and my buddy folds it. I shoot one as well and we are happy. I walk up to pick up the birds and by habit I check them both for bands. And guess who's has the band on it..... His. I yell to him that his was banded and I take a second look and there is another $100 reward band on the other leg. SOB. I have shot tons of birds but never a banded one. But I am happy for my buddy... Not really but it sounded good  :chuckle:

looks like the reward band has lost all its color, do you know when it was banded yet? may have been flying around with it for a while.

Your a good buddy.  I think my friend would have handed me the one with no bands and claimed it himself.   :dunno:

They said it would tell him on the certificate they were sending him in a couple weeks. I'll keep you posted.

I would have loved to be the one to shoot that drake but it wouldn't have felt right if I would have lied.  :)

No, his family bought their farm about ten years ago. They own land on the westside, in Royal and S.D. I didnt go there either.
