I moved to the Lowcountry 30+ years ago. Started hunting deer, dove, pheasant and duck. I really only took up duck hunting because I had a Lab and wanted to see what he would do, and he LOVED it. It's so cool to see good breeding and instincts kick in. Loss of land/habitat since then and I stopped hunting altogether until a friend hooked me up with a nice place to hunt ducks, so for the last several years we've hunted, some seasons great, some not so great. (And a friend gives me venison occasionally.)
Mornings in the duck blind: hardly any place I'd rather be. My old Browning A500 serves me well, none of those lightweight shotguns that the younger (and more serious) guys use. And duck can be mighty tasty.
