Sometimes, when you're not making piles OR lines...... You take pictures of the dog, who's patiently waiting for you to make piles:

In addition to Piles, I also like to make Lines. Or, my favorite, the Line/Pile: One more pile picture, with a Mid Missouri New Years Eve bluewing teal (kinda rare up here)

Then your pile picture is more impressive than my 6 bird limit per gun: I call this one "Flat Tires and Bluewings"

I love a good pile pic!

After an unsuccessful second MO opener, I had to go work for a living for a little while, and with about 7 inches of rain over the next weekend, really wasnt able to get back out until this past Sunday, the last day of the Missouri season. After screwing up this bird off the roost, when I...

My spring is officially over as of this morning, having filled out all of my KS and MO tags. I had a great season, some amazing hunts, and made some mind numbingly stupid mistakes.. After a crazy two days in Kansas for the early archery season, which involved me missing 4 times, and not...

Haha. I bought a box if 2 3/4 #6 Heavy shot for my wife a few years ago.. There's 8 shells left out of the box of 10, and 2 dead gobblers to show for it. I'm not sure she'll chase turkeys very much anymore, but I'd make a strong bet that if she did, she'd kill 10 birds with those 10 shells...

Since duck season is now over, and a buddy just happened to send me this picture the other day.... When I was in college down in Springfield, MO, we had a horrible ice storm that knocked out power for nearly all of the city for 10 days. During the ice storm, we all were like transients, moving...

I thought I had this figured out.. But, maybe I don't. I bought my AZ license last year on 01/31/16. AZ licenses are good for a year, so mine expires this year on 01/31/17. When I go into create my application, it pulls my existing license, but in BOLD RED, it indicates that I must have a...

It's been a rough season here, with really warm temperatures and no ducks for a majority of the season. Then we got that cold snap, and everything froze, even most of the big water. The river was to dangerous to run, with the big ice flow on it.. After about a full day of driving, my cousin...

Went out on Thanksgiving day, thank God for all the greenwings that showed up, cause the mallards just weren't doing it. We worked 1 mallard all morning, but had really good teal action. The 2am wakeup made for a great post turkey dinner nap! We need some weather and some ducks bad, or our...

Ha, my dog doesnt like posing for pictures either. Sometimes she even looks away, and pretends like she's busy looking for more ducks

Was pretty busy during turkey season, and never got around to posting pics. Did real well in Missouri, hunting for a total of just a few hours to kill 2 birds. I missed the first 2 weeks of the Kansas season, but still started off real good when I finally got there, killing a bird in the first...

Fine looking beasts fellas! AK, you always have the best pictures. Here's one of my favorites of Dee, always by my side, even when we're just shooting trap.

I'm a bit of a duck call junky, so I thought I might share these calls I just had made. My dad recently decided to sell his first farm, the one I grew up hunting, and shot my first deer and first duck off of. We rarely, if ever use the farm any more, so it was time to move on... When he told...

Any time we fry wild turkey, it gets soaked in buttermilk for a day or so. I think it really makes for a better end result. Had it for dinner tonight, as a matter of fact! Springfield style cashew turkey:

I'm leaving for Denver next week, and will be out there for about 2 weeks. I'll be working the entire time, but I should have evenings free, and weekends as well. Was hoping to find the time to maybe do a little fishing in the evenings. I was perusing the CO fishing atlas, and it looks like...

I couldn't even begin to guess how many ducks and geese I've killed over the years, but I've only ever shot one banded bird, a Mallard drake. Not only was he banded, but he paid for gas and lunch that day:

I'm pretty terrible at finding sheds, so I was pretty surprised to find this one on new years eve, in the dark.... I basically tripped over it, on a death march 5 miles out of a flooded reservoir, when our boat broke down at dark. Not 100% sure those ducks were worth that hike out through...

I know most of you all here don't hunt out of tree stands, but for those that do, just a reminder about wearing your harness, and wearing it properly. A girl my wife went to college with just lost her husband last week, when he couldn't get back in his stand after he fell out. Stay safe out...
