Did they have the mirror blinds when you were there ?

Or was that John Olin's Nilo Farms that had the mirror blinds back in the 60's and 70's ?

Didn't see mirror blinds at Remington. Had a chance to shoot at Nilo in the mid 70's. The duck shooting was really lame. They had trained a bunch of mallards to fly from their pen to the water. You stood with your back to the water, and it didn't matter what you did, or what you were wearing, those birds were making a bee line to the water (and corn) Not very elegant.
