Guys,

 

I've received alot of questions about my Duck & Hunting Experiences in the states, so I thought I'd share a few photos, and show you all the stuff we do in the States

 

Cant wait for some Pictures and Memories of hunting in the UK for the next 3 years!

 

Hope you guys enjoy, and ask all the ?'s you want

 

You can quickly tell why my wife hates Hunting/Fishing Season so much...never around and almost broke every fall and spring!!!

Too many memories and amazing experiences too count...but here's a few highlights...

 

23 lbs on the Turkey on my shoulder and 18 on the one I'm sitting with...both will be proudly displayed here in my office when my goods make it across the pond.

 

The one where Im sitting is a Meriam's Wild Turkey from New Mexico, and comes with a funny story. I was out in NM for some training during Turkey season, and decided to give it a shot on a huge public national forrest. Had no clue where to go, but just started hiking and calling in the mountains. The area was about 7300 feet elevation, so i was tired as a dog after the first day, getting a bunch to Gobble but none would commit, having hiked about 15 miles that day. However, I was able to find a huge antler from an Elk that you see in the pictures so not all was lost. Best part of the story is, I got **** drunk that night, and woke up late the next morning to go hunt. As I'm out taking a **** outside my Caravan, a Turkey gobbles less than 100 yards from where I'm peeing. Three calls and 10 min later, I shoot him at 52 yards about less than 1/10 of a mile from the caravan. Morale of the Story....Forget working your *** of when turkey hunting...just get **** drunk and they will come to you the next morning!!!

 

 

 

The one of the Deer Skulls are the 3 Bucks takin off our farm in 2009...all very nice deer

 

The Duck pics with the "Rack of Ducks" are from the Club I hunted with in 2010-2011. We had an amazing year, because it was a drought, but our property had enuff water to pump two rice fields full. I believe the count for the 10 members was over 1200 ducks in a 60 day season that year

 

The Duck pics with the log were from my 2011-2012 club. Great spot, and when there was a push of Ducks, its a magical thing to watch ducks break tree branches as they come in through the flooded Timber of Arkansas

Water does freeze and the hunt right before, and right after ICE OUTare on fire

 

Best hunt i've ever had, was actually over a very thin film of ice. We go in and break up the ice by stomping it, or its too thick, drive an ATV over it, and then set our decoys in the hole/ You have to send someone out about every half hour to rebreak the ice, but its worth it.

 

Landed over 200 mallards in about a 30 yard hole, and the edges of the ice.

 

Needless to say, we shot our limit of 6 dux each in about 3 hrs, but 2:45 of that was due to videotaping and just sitting back in awe of the spectical of hundreds of mallard puring into your decoy set

 

With UK limits, we couldve shot 200 birds that day
