anybody ready for duck season?

[r_hammett86]

warm weather, turkey calls and bass boats are clouding my vision.:confused: how much longer do we have to wait to send up some steel and bust some beaks???:shoot:

[mello_collins]

Going to the swamp next week to cut a new trial to my wood duck hole. I can't wait!

[MustangMAtt30]

I've already started counting down to dove season. If I can just make it till then it'll all be gravy till November.

I've got a nice little almost mint condition Ithaca M37 Ultra Featherweight 20 gauge for Christmas that I can't wait to shoot at those little grey ghosts in September.

Was in my storage room looking at my bags of dekes and wishing for cold weather and whistling wings.... Got enough on my plate now trying to get this new dog trained and hopefully I'll be able to do something with her come dove season.

[georgiaboy88]

Can't wait either. It's all I've been thinking about. Been working with my dog a lot lately trying to get him ready for some hunt tests. Dove season can't come fast enough, and then the best season of the year in November.

[Dustin Pate]

and then the best season of the year in November.


...I'll take the end of December through January.

[Hooked On Quack]

Steel shot??? You're supposed to use steel shot??

[ADDICTED2HUNTIN]

i am still in turkey mode, but i know my dog is ready, last year was her 1st season and every morning i get up and put my camo on to go turkey hunting she thinks she is going with me and it breaks my heart to not let her go!!

You don't have to...It's optional...

[Hooked On Quack]

Thank God!! I know a high brass #7 1/2 dove load will blister a woodie.

Man the season just starts then! Never said it was the best time!! haha. Plus I already have my Illinois trip planned for next year. And hopefully I'll be hittin' up Arkansas too.

when does early goose and teal start anyways? But i def can't wait til december when it really starts getting right!

[r_hammett86]

i dunno when early teal and goose starts. i don't think they've poseted the dates for this years opener. this past year i think it was late sept. i may be wrong. i didn't go. to warm. and i hate snakes. did anybody hunt at any of the wma's this past year. we went to wespoint the first few weeks and did really good. except we bout had ahtrow down with every skybuster

Had a hunt ruined by skybusters and really early shooters at Glover's.

I don't know if I have heard a hunt in the last 3 years or so when they don't shoot early over there.

[Medicine Man]
