65 Blue blood New Englander. Direct descendent of Roger Williams who founded Rhode Island moms side. Fathers side first settlers of New York. I'm a self employed construction worker still roofing and building houses. It's that Puritan work ethic thing. My conservative friends think I'm a Commie and my liberal friends think I'm a Nazi. Oh and I graduated from an all girls Prep school. Always been and still am a straight White man. HUH? I don't really fit anyones demographics.

Been a dairyman or farm manager all my life. The reason for my name of cacklercrazy is we use to kill a crazy amount of cacklers here in the valley. I probably hunt for waterfowl today than big game because it's easier to get away from the dairy for a few hours versus days to big game hunt. I do still love a sun rise on top of a mountain.

So what exactly is a cackler?

Thank you sir. I’ve never had the opportunity to do much bird hunting outside of turkey hunting so I wasn’t quite sure. I appreciate the feedback

I will be 50 next month. Born and raised in Oregon. I work for a small construction Company where I am a manager/ superintendent/ foreman/ operator/ laborer.
hunting has always been my number one hobby every since I got my first BB gun. bow hunting elk is my favorite. I pretty much just hunt deer and elk.

Small sub species of Canadian geese. I've had 2 to 3 thousands hit the spread before. Looks like a black cyclone coming down. If you keep your wits you can get 3 to 5 birds each. I know I have shot at least 4 sets of quads. Birds don't work Modesto like they used to. The rich boys in the delta are feeding them corn and keeping them up there.

I think I'm the youngest here, since I'm only 19 years old :) But honestly, it seems to me that I'm much older in my soul ... I have many friends who are already over 30 and I'm really interested in communicate with them. We have many common topics that we can discuss together. I also constantly try to improve somehow in various industries. For example, I recently decided to make repairs at my home (Yes, I have a small house, I have been working since 15 years old and I managed to save a small amount, everything that I was missing was added by my parents). It turned out to be a very interesting activity that brought me many new acquaintances. I also discovered the great service maxima-aluminum.com. If you do repairs, be sure to pay attention to them. Now I spend all my time studying. I hope I graduate from college with good grades ..
