Waterfowl Youth Hunt 2014

[Foxtrot1]

Took the nephews out duck hunting for the first time during this years youth season. We did harvest 5 of the worlds unluckiest ducks. We had over 100 ducks maple leaf into the decoys at daylight. It was a great day. The kids were really excited.

The other bit of excitement was when I was looking for a cripple. Raina dropped behind the dam of the farm pond and slammed on point in a thicket. I eased down to help her and released her from point. She dove into the thicket and instantly came out gagging and pawing her face. She took a direct shot from a skunk to the face. First time, we dont have many skunks here. Fun time for all.

Nice work - great job getting the kids involved. Love to see that.

Sounds like an awesome trip, apart from running into that black & white bandit... You can see the disappointment in her eyes.

It is truly amazing how much spray a skunk can hold. Shot one with my bow a few years back. It took over a year for the stink to come off the arrow...

Great stuff - they look like duck dynasty jrs!!!!

Nothing worse than your dog getting hit with that - I kicked a skunk out of pile off a point like that once and was awful lucky. The dog stayed at heel and both safe. (could have been real bad, I had my face down looking/investigating in the pile prior to the kick

Awsome hunt but sucks to be the dog. I must comment on the orange cord on the ground where you washed the dog off. Is that an electrical cord laying in the water?

Haha, the cord is an extension cord, it was not plugged in. If my ex wife would have volunteered to hold the dog maybe.......
