At this very moment I was killing ducks on the Savannah
River. How can I remember this,
Later that day I married my bride.
She still makes my coffee before I go hunting,

Congrats !!! I worked and lived in Savannah back in the mid 80's. Is the Laurel Hill Wildlife Drive still around ? I've been duck hunting an awful long time, and never in my life have I seen the numbers of Bluewing Teal like there. The last time I actually saw the sun get blocked out by birds. They were everywhere. Also saw the biggest alligator I've ever seen in there. Easy 14 ft/1000 lbs. Really cool place.

That's cool you duck hunted on your wedding day. How many days did yall get for that season and what were the limits?
 
5 wood ducks a day for two weeks. I killed a limit every day i hunted.

I have not met the lady.
But, bless her heart. She is some kind of saint I'm certain.

Congrats Killer! Hope y'all have at least that many more to come.

James, I am sure the marriage is better than the duck hunting is today. Gil :cheers:

Only been a bit over 1 year for me but the morning of my wedding we shot geese. It’s great having a family and father in law that are just as obsessed with hunting as I am!
 
You know what she got for number 37?
A trip to see Alabama and LSU play on 4 November.
I will be in a deer stand.

She's a good'un!
I duck hunted the morning before my wedding, even had a duck cake! We dated 13 years, been married 15.
She even bought me a sweet 16 Belgium browning in the box never fired, at 16 years and it's a safe queen!
Don't know why she's so good to me??:huh:
