The countdown is on - September 1 is right around the corner.

Wheat is pretty much all off, and geese are scattered all over.

Have really noticed teal numbers starting to build in the little marshes I watch.

Will try and get some pics up this week - with teal and goose opening on the same day - it'll be a judgment call in the week leading up to Sept 1

I'm jealous that your season starts so early!

My thought too Rick...although I actually shot more green wings in October than I did blue wings in Sept.

And yes - it's nice to be able to start early.

We proposed dates for the 3 zones last week, and not including teal and early goose - we will be able to hunt ducks somewhere in Michigan every weekend from 9/26 -12/27 except the weekend before Christmas. I defy anyone to bitch about those opportunities.

Unfortunately - yes, they are.

Nearly 90 days to hunt ducks, if you're willing to travel a bit, and 107 days to shoot geese...and guys get hung up about 2 days here or there

A bitching hunter is a happy hunter. Right? Lol.
