Anybody have connections with any decoy makers? We could send around our own decoy if everybody is up to it come season. We need a better name for ours though.

Jgun carves a mean block. Better than any of the decoy makers I have seen. He's a good boy, he'll make one ;)

I bet he's not a real nice guy like you though :D. What's his specialty or what should we force him to carve? I say redhead block name it "redheaded stepchild" to pass around.

I'd be open to having it any weekend. I think it'd be kinda funny to have it beside the Dhc one on the Byers hunt.

I'd be happy to carve one. Just let me know what kind of diver or sea duck you want.

Now it has to be a big fat mallard so we can see your tears in the paint. Diver would bring you too much pleasure.

Are we really doing a traveling decoy? If someone here wants to really carve it, I'd sponser the carve and buy you any of the raw materials needed. I wanna get this going.

If everyone else likes the idea and you can pull it off a Mandarin would be awesome. I bet no ones ever done that. If its not doable start a poll and we'll vote.

I could always carve a midget in a row boat....

I think I could pull off a mandarin. Unless everyone wants something practical?

Life's too short for "practical". I'm all about fun.

I think we should name the decoy "Nick Roehl".

I thought about making the dates the same as the other one if anyone here is going to sign up for it. Just to take pics together but I didn't know if that was a bad idea or not

What's the deal with that hunt? Did he invite a bunch of you down there for a hunt?
