Another day in the duck marsh

[Richard Flanders]

Thanks Destry! The bands went a long ways in cheering me up after expending so much ammunition for so few ducks! I seemed to make the hard 50+ yd shots and miss the ones that came right over me at 25yds...go figure... Tom would say of some incomers, "they're way too high" and not shoot.... I'd shoot and down one would come.... or he might shoot twice and miss and I'd swing on a bird way the hell out and down it would go.... maybe it's the F/F chokes....

She was banded Aug 8, 2009 on Minto Lake, not far from where I got her..... and the check's in the mail....!

How's that thumb doing?

Say, what kind of shells were you shooting?
