Anatidae I'm with you.

You left out the good part about shooting sitting ducks. mulitple spinners and the above average shooting is easy when you can edit what is put into the film.

But I will tell you this, I could shoot with any of them hunting the way I hunt. (In your face)

But that pass shooting crap on the divers they can have.

........'Depends entirely upon what you call 'GOOD'. After a while I got sick of watching clip after clip of ducks dying, although it's easy to be impressed by their above average shooting ability.

I'd rather see shots (particularly of hunters with THEIR calling ability), working the birds into the camera lense....'killin'em is pretty much a 'given', with those guys.....but I think it's important to realize they didn't GET that way, overnight...it takes years of experience to achieve that level of proficiency.

I did find it interesting that Jase Robertson uses a Primos 'Wench' [img]images/smiles/icon_eek.gif[/img]

I particularly enjoyed watching 'Red Dog' Phillips' golden retriever at work.....that's a SERIOUS, retrievin' FOOL! [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

I've already stated my thoughts regarding the "Godly woman that can pick ducks", segment.....some folks might find that, cute. [img]images/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif[/img]

Any video will have it's critics. [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]

Yeah, D-men.....I wasn't especially fond of the water-swat shot, either [img]images/smiles/icon_eek.gif[/img].....but then I remembered.....I'm human too, and admit (as everyone should) I've done that myself. Damn if I'd be brash enough to put it on film. Good point about editing, too. [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]

I purposely avoided the moto thang, but agree with you that if that blows their skirt up, that's a thrill I choose to live without.....'don't need to hear any opinions on that....ain't the least bit interested....save your frustration! [img]images/smiles/icon_mad.gif[/img]

Dan.....I'd be proud sit in a duck blind with you, my friend, and you know I'm not inviting myself to hunt with you, either! [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img] We'll do that, one day.

Yes, they can edit their tapes but they cant edit it when a group of 20 teal come in and 8-10 of them stay. Thats pretty good shooting for 3 people any way you look at it.

I haven't seen it yet, but are they still hunting in cattle ponds in texas? just over the hill from the peanut fields? they aint hunting any more they are "shooting ducks". they need to get back to their roots where they were hunting in the backwater sloughs and flooded timber. IMHO their videos have gone downhill somewhat, beginning with the 3rd one. speaking of videos, whistling wings 1 was their best video and have gone seriously downhill ever since. this last one which is #6 i believe, the very beginning hunt for canadian geese is the best goose hunt they've had on a video yet, but that's about all that's worth watching on the whole video.
