Hi TurfTech28. Last year was my first year to duck hunt. Always thought of it as a rich man's sport...kinda like golf. It can get that way though but I suppose deer hunting could too. This year I'm taking my 8 year old. He loves it and I love taking him. I've been hunting the walk-in public land except for those days I'm invited to private land but those don't always prove to be any better. I just discovered a wma north of town that I'm gonna hunt at least once before season end. I've never hunted from a boat since I don't have a boat nor have I been invited by someone that does. I'm always looking for people and places to go but I see you're in Columbia? I'm all the way over in Brownsville.
