No helicopter looking for a murder

And it read, "Jeffys a pimp"

25 shells. Because Department of Fish and Game finds it necessary to be a prick.

Yep.

if you dont feel a bit ill leaving a cripple behind, especially without flight, youre a cold hearted sleepwalking beast.



Nope. I rejoice in the happiness that I have gifted to the crabs, foxes, eagles, and buzzards. The joy they experience when encountering an easy meal, that they don't have to expend any energy to find, warms the cockles of my heart. I usually whistle "Zip a dee doo da" as I walk out of the marsh, with a smile on my face as I think of those foxes getting fat dumb and happy on a meal I provided for them.


Your perspective is fucked up if it makes you sad.

not sad but a bit ill feeling. maybe guilt. Youre just making up a fantasy world to live in so you dont have to experience any negativity. the only thing that is sure is not getting the job done.

Your fantasy world involves ducks have deep-seated emotional feelings like people. Do you get just as shook up when you swat a mosquito or a spider? If not, your moral relativity doesn't tote the water.

Oh my! We are getting into the deep philosophical stuff now, aren't we.......The whole duck hunting thing usually boils down to lots of trigger time, you know, killing stuff. Justifying not killing a cripple because it will be a meal for a swamp critter is alright and feeling sad about not harvesting a duck in fair chase is alright too.

On the other hand, perhaps people are too lazy to chase down a cripple or it might be that they are too much of girly-man to not try to end a cripples suffering. In either case it amounts to the hunter being a poor shot or a poor judge of his abilities. :fishing:

thats not a fair assumption to jump to. i dont personify ducks. standing my ground against parasites or predators is fair. leaving a bird behind makes me feel guilty like cheating to win or deceiving a customer makes me feel.

Don't get me wrong, I do all I can to kill a cripple and get it. But if I don't, I don't feel bad. Nature is far crueler and more painful than a human could ever be. Birds don't feel sorry for themselves, so I'm certainly not going to do it for them.

Shit you guys carry a lot of shells. And way to hijack the thread with how bad wader farts are! :beer: :lol: ! The limit for ducks here is 7 a day and 28 in possession at home. Geese is 4 a day and 16 in possession at home. I won't say I'm the best wing shooter ever, but I can shoot a shotgun better than a lot of folks. To bad I can't say the same for shooting a pistol. Besides, if I don't shoot my limit in under 10 shells, it don't mean anything. 4 ducks is plenty for me.

Best Regards,

None. I just swim up underneath them, grab'em by the feet, pull'em down and drown'em. Lots cheaper that way.

If i'm dove hunting I carry three boxes and duck hunting I carry 2 boxes. I never burn through all of it but running out of ammo is almost as bad as running out of beer. :beer:

:lol: I knew when I hit submit that it was just a matter of time before someone posted that pic. I was thinking more like a goose shell with eye holes cut out in the breast. I think a sideways swimming goose with a crazy guy's face under it might freak the birds out.
