That means new ducks, and lots of activity. In the morning I hooked up with a couple of friends for a fantastic shoot in some shallow water marshes where I like to chase Missouri deer.

The wind was howling out of the North by the time we were done. The plan was to chase river geese in the afternoon but the decoys kept getting blown away. We hooked up with a couple of friends who hadn’t hunted the morning shoot so they could kill 10 mallards and we could kill a total of 15 geese. Unfortunately the wind, cold, and equipment failed us with respect to the geese but we did add 9 mallards to the tally. A fantastic day.

This morning we woke up to a windchill of -9 and very little open water. By tomorrow most of the ducks will be in Oklahoma and Texas. Still, I’m glad we got to enjoy it while it lasted… October 2011 seems like a long ways away.

For me the national and international support of hunting outweighs the pseudo-legitimacy they provide to pseudo-hunting. And, on a side note, I heard recently that they discourage short term guaranteed hunts believing that they are not in the spirit of “Fair Chase”. I know, amazing!

Anyway, today I got a $50.00 Cabela’s gift certificate in the mail for signing up a new member. It seems like an obvious decision to me. You pay $55 for the membership and get nearly all of that back in the form of credit to a place any real outdoorsman will use. The new member then also gets a very nice magazine featuring great stories from all over the planet, plus the newsletter and invitations to local events. I’m sure there are other smaller things I’m overlooking. The real benefit is that your money is supporting hunting, a goal we should have.
