Late Season Ducks

Awesome late season duck hunt. These birds actually decoyed and responded quite well to call which I thought was unusual for this time of year. 12 ducks total. 11 mallards and a goldeneye. The weather was perfect but I swear that walk to and from the truck gets longer every season!!!

Jordan shot this big texas pig day after we shot the ducks. 250lbs on foot and a lot of meat. We were worried about the meat tasting bad but the guy that took us hunting said soak it in ice water for three days and it will taste fine. We did, we ate, and it is very tasty. Jordan Shot this thing with a 22-250 and it went down hard so he started walking up to it(mistake) it was not dead it charged him so he shot it from the hip and hit it in the butt, still not dead took out a 9mm pistol and shot it 7 yes 7 times in the head before he died. These are tough animals but fun to hunt. I missed my shot enough said.

Texas Ducks

Jordan and I shot these ducks down in Aransas Pass Texas over Christmas break. Can`t see it real good but there is a nice wigion in there that is going on my wall. 2 pintails, 2 wigions, 4 reds, and a spoone(oops).

Last evening, last 30 minutes, cold and snow….just like last years deer I shot, even from the same spot, and the similarities in rack is amazing, cept this one is a little larger and didn’t have a broken point.
Ryan was hunting with me in my 2 man Tree stand, that made it that much more fun. For what its worth I offered twice for him to shoot it, but, he ethically chose to let me! Fell dead at the shot. It was great.
