cheap and easy face paint
 

Hey guys I was looking on the web and came across a cool little idea for us duck hunters. I want to see if any one else has tryed it and how affective is it ? This older gentleman was taken a wine bottle cork and burning the end. he would use the cork like a marker. when he was done he put it in an old flim container. he said it last for ever. any one ever tryed this. does it work couldnt up load pictures to see how it looked.

I buddies Dad was a paratrooper in WWII. That is what they used. When we were kids he would do that to us when we went hunting.

Lol y paint ur face? Cause u seen it on duck dynasty?

Agree. Went to Brown's Grocery in Hackberry around 10AM Saturday morning. Everyone had face paint. Thanks for the laugh! :rotfl: Make up artist in the marsh!! And grow a long beard...

Instead of make up...Put more detail and attention on grassing your blind. Then when ducks are working, get down in the blind.

And I like watching duck dynasty. It makes me laugh too!

Bingo

I sent some Cooyans at the Sonic last week in full out Camo with face paint. They had the F-250 FX4s with window stickers pulling the brand new GatorTails with the pop up blinds.

Face paint..... Lmao

we face painted deer hunting since i was like 5 years old... didnt know it makes you unCOOL.

Opposite. It makes you cool

I don't face paint cause I am kinda dark complected. But I do know that no amount of camo or brush is enough to hide a big ole moon face staring up at ducks overhead.

Id say probably like ULTRACOOL... bc we did it before it was cool!

Face Paint isn't about cool or uncool. It's a trend right now because of duck dynasty. Also, I am seeing more beards. It's just funny. Hey, knock yourself out.

And as for moon faces, sit down, hide, look down. If you are doing the calling, figure it out...this shouldn't be your first rodeo if you are calling...

i dont duck hunt anyways... only deer.... maybe i should be painting my face while wade fishing... trout wont be able to see me :)

Must be a lot of muffler mechanics in hackberry. Don't eye **** the ducks and you shouldn't need face paint. Getting back to hero's question, I have seen the cork used. Looks like it was more of a hassle than the paint. Guy kept burning his face lol. Not sure how many uses you can get out of one though.

Grab a handful of mud and slather that crap on your face and roll. Willie says it helps hide your scent from the ducks!! :rotfl: :rotfl: Not to mention women pay big money for them mud baths.

We painted a yellow labs face with mud one time under his eyes just to be ridiculous... We kept joking about him moonpieing the ducks so somebody said lets paint his face. Wish I could find the pics.

I don't use it much but my boys I hunt with do. I usually have a good beard going during duck season and I'm dark complected. One of my buddies in my lease has a big ole white pie face and can't grow facial hair so I like when he wears paint. I bought some in Arkansas last season. It looks like a mini deodorant stick and has 3 diff colors sticking up. You just rub it on. Pretty easy and not messy at all.

I usually call so I try my best to locate the ducks before the shot. I just wear a thin face mask. That paint feels nasty on ya face. Wine corks burning smell bad. Just don't look!!!


"Go ahead, share your opinion! I won't cry"

i love looking at all the face paint now days... apparently nobody knows how to grass a blind or even hunt for that matter...

Good luck to all the face painters out there!

If you're caught Piefacing in the blind with us, you get scalded and ridiculed mercilessly for the rest of your natural life. And if you're caught painting your face, it's worse. If you're not calling you've got no busines with your face looking anywhere but straight down. Period.

WOW!!!! Face paint police!!! Sure glad you guys showed up!!!

:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

lol... it looked alot like that when we did it

From google lol

Face paint has it's merits.....

I've been doing this for as long as some of you been breathing.
Not saying that to be cocky (or age myself) but we have been using some sort of face cover the thirty years.....mainly because my first hunting partner stuck out like a white bean in a bowl of redbeans, he is white as a ghost.

I see no dofference between face paint and face screens/cover.......it is easier to call from in fact.....and it's just less PIB

Unless it is bitterly cold, I am using a couple lines of burnt cork

Using face paint is a personnal choice. Just as making the choice not to use it.

If I was a guide, it would be a requirement. I don't care how many times you tell sports not to look, they're going to look. I have hunted with friends that weren't novice hunters, but they were novice duck hunters. I would be working birds and could tell you exactly when they looked at the birds by the way the birds acted. Sure enough, you turn around and they're peeking over the grass. Particularly bad when goose hunting. When the geese start getting close and loud, they're gonna look!

Yep

I ask them before the hunt if they want shoot geese or watch em. Plain and simple the only thing you should be able to see is your toes.

Well said.... Personal preference is face mask but anything to hide a white flag is fine by me. It's hard to tell someone not to look up when they don't see that everyday... They are dumbfounded... I know I wanted to see everything...


"Go ahead, share your opinion! I won't cry"

If you were the guide, you would be getting paid. First rule: The customer is always right. If the customer is wrong, refer to the first rule...Face paint, face cover, white faces, brown faces, black faces are the issue almost never. Birds flare from movement (your dog), pour cover on your blind and/or boat, suck decoys (your the bad shots), and many other reasons.

If you blame your hunting buddies face, try this...put down your call and see what happens...maybe its you...

My favorite thing I always hear people say (my brother especially) is... If I'm fully camouflaged and I don't move at all they can't see me. 9 times out of 10 you still have a silhouette and second problem is on a sunny day your gonna cast a shadow. Get off your butt and pile the brush on that blind.Attachment 59492

lmao wow

i love it when people cake on the black face paint and it shines just as much as your white face...

Or put on face paint and stare at birds with blue Costas

Seriously? :shaking:

If you're a guide and tell your sports to put on face paint you may need to reconsider calling yourself a guide.
It's your blind. Yours. Grass it how it is supposed to be. Just takes a little work.
I'll admit my blind is a ***** show this year and is not up to par. But I'm also not even hunting it. I'd rather be balls deep in the grass.

Say it aint soooooooooo:eek:

You see some sights in the duck huntin world. Lol. Face paint wit white duck dynasty hat. Face paint huntin out of a boat with a white motor uncovered. Facing into the wind and into the sun. Seen it a thousand times.

Yea u right


"Go ahead, share your opinion! I won't cry"

Saw a dude openin day of teal season wit a duck dynasty beanie on. Was 95 degrees

He cray! Or just dd dedicated

Try guiding a New York doctor who's never hunted in his life, point his muzzle at you and his partners, shoot over you, his partners and your dog, and constantly leave his gun off safety, then tell me "the customer is always right". Speaking of dogs, when the customer says, "I wanna bring my dog, he's a real nice hunting dog", 99% of the time, he is far from right. Leave your biscuit eatin SOB at home!

You seen those caddo lake videos on the refuge forums? I was lmao the whole time

Not only is he right but funniest **** i've heard in awhile :rotfl: lmao

If a person has never witnessed catahoula lake in person you need to do yourself a favor before you die. Got to check that rodeo out.

I've been to the boeuf wma in Columbia and the Oui****a wma south of Monroe. Probably very similar... It's funny for the first 10 minutes until you realize how bad they are screwing you up.

I would not put my life at risk for a few hundred...That shouldn't be a customer.

That happens way more than you think

U know its on when they show up with a new gun in the cardboard box...
