Figured I'd give up and see what you experts think..... All I can say is you think for even one minute that we're experts I'd call a psychiatrist immediately :lol: You got way bigger problems than ya realize. As for sky bustin I'm all for it as long as I'm the one doing the deed & not the other...

No early or late seasons. No Spring Snow hunting. Boy have things changed... Changed a lot IMO. Most of it for the better. Much improved clothing & waders helped a bunch. When I remember "the good old days" I remember leakin waders & being wet & cold all day. Crappy steel shot...

One thing I'm sure of-most duck hunters are whiners. Talked to guys last weekend that shot a limit & were still whining. Must be a specia...

Nice article. I learned a little bit about the Hautmans. Thanks for the posting Al.
