ready for the season
 

ALL THIS TALK ABOUT DUCK HUNTING IS KILLING ME SO YALL PLEASE STOP. THIS IS MY SECOND YEAR OF DUCK HUNTING AND LET ME TELL YOU GUYS IM HOOKED, LAST YEAR I WENT HUNTING FOR MY FIRST TIME ON A THURSDAY AT THE END OF THE FIRST SPLIT, FRIDAY I BOUGHT ME A BOAT AND A NEW GUN AND DEEKS AND I WAS OFF TO LEARN NEW THINGS. THANKS TO MY BUDDY MATT AND HIS DOG T-**** (AKA RUFF) THAT GOT MY BLOOD BOILING FOR THE WATERFOWL CREATURES. AT THE END OF LAST YEAR I TOOK RUFF BY MYSELF ON A HUNT AND DECIDED I NEED MY OWN DOG, SO THE DAY AFTER THE SEASON CLOSED I WAS OFF AND PURCHASED BRILEY, I GOT HIM AT 7 WEEKS AND WAS CLUELESS ON WHAT TO DO AS FAR AS TRAINING SO I READ BOOKS AND WATCHED VIDEOS ON DOG TRAINING AND AT 8.5 MONTHS NOW HE IS DOING TRIPLE MARKS, BLIND RETRIEVES, HAND SIGNALS AND WORKS ON THE WHISTLE. I KNOW ITS EASY TO PAY AND GET YOUR DOG TRAINED BUT I ONLY PAID 400 FOR MY DOG AND IN THE ECONOMY THESE DAYS ITS HARD FOR ME TO FORK OUT 450-500 A MONTH FOR TRAINING. THIS GOES OUT FOR ALL THE GUYS WITH NEW DOGS THAT IS LOOKING FOR A TRAINER. GO TO YOUR NEAREST MIRROR AND LOOK IN IT AND YOU WILL SEE YOUR TRAINER. ITS EASY TO TRAIN, JUST TAKES TIME. BUT IN THE END ITS WORTH IT. AND WHEN PEOPLE SEE YOUR DOG WORK AND ASK YOU "WHERE DID YOU GET YOUR DOG TRAINED" AND YOU SAY " I TRAINED HIM/HER" I WILL ASSURE YOU, YOU WILL SMILE WHEN YOU SAY THAT. ANYWAYS ITS 24 DAYS TILL THE SEASON STARTS AND ITS KILLING ME. YALL HAVE A FUN AND SAFE SEASON. OH AND THANKS TO LA SPORTSMAN.COM FOR THE CLASSIFIED ADDS IN THE AID OF ME FINDING MY DOG. ILL BE LOOKING FOR A CHOCOLATE FEMALE SOON AS A SECONDARY HUNTING DOG AND A PERSONAL DOG FOR MY GIRLFRIEND SO IF YALL KNOW OF ANYONE HAVING PUPS AROUND EARLY DECEMBER/JANUARY LET ME KNOW. THANKS.

one of my favorite parts of a duck hunt is watching a good lab work

Get EM READY

Been warming up the calls for 2 months now

Im ready you ready lets go:)

D you don't have no pics of your dog with 4 ducks in his mouth.......1st dog I ever seen do that!!!!

I never stop. When I want the house to myself pull out the calls. Duck isnt to bad but when I get on that Speck call she is out of here.:*****::*****:

Coleen is gonna kill you I will be trying that when i get home

haha i love a good speck call lol


i drive down the road and blow the calls

I was looking for them and dont remember where I put them. I will keep looking

No she will mess you up. How is she doing.

Got the calls in my truck right now...practice

Capt d it want be long before she hears calls 7 days a week

Calls stay in the truck for blowing. Wife can't stand them. Been bringing them offshore. My guys are sick of hearing a duck call. But I love it. Also been tuning up the dogs. Had a run in with a gator yesterday. First time I've seen gators in this bayou for 5 yrs.

Cannot wait.....I do not know what I rather more......shooting ducks or catching specs????

She would never make it at my house

Yeah i been blowing calls since last year, i cant walk past my lanyard at my house without blowing a few notes, my dog dont mind them but my lil lady is jealous cause she cant blow the calls yet, but she tries. Lol.

Just keep practicing it will come

you know thats right:*****::*****:
