Why DU Why?

Postby kwat » Tue Dec 09, 2008 8:50 am

I have a Offical Ducks Unlimited calendar, and my daughter just noticed that it does not have "Christmas" noted on the 25th. She then noticed that it did not note "Easter" either, but did have Hanukkah, Boxing Day, etc. Why does Ducks Unlimited not include Christian Holidays but includes all others from around the world?

I don't know if I want to give any futher funds to DU.

Then there are 2 different Calendars, cause mine does not and it states "Ducks Unlimited Offical Calendar". This month's pictures are of three lab pups.

Where are you at Keith? I have not seen the big boy buck yet. Clint missed a decent deer Sunday afternoon. Your Dad deer hunting or duck hunting? Get you a MSU athletics calendar. They have the holidays in the right places :wink: . Saw Kenny Bolen last night at a seed meeting and he said he was looking to get back to coon hunting in the hunts. Told him I was about ready to find a young female pup to fool with. February and March will be a good time to get one going.

Dad is still deer hunting mostly but is throwing a duck hunt in every once in a while. Tell Clint not to worry, I'm sure his dad has missed a few also, as have I. Saw the swayback buck night before last, he is huge. He was chasing a doe from the south.

I had spotlighters shoot twice at 12:30am and again twice around 1:30am off the road at the pipeline night Sunday night. Couldn't sleep for the gunshots, they were in an older model Lincoln. Might be what happened to the big deer at the house, have not seen him in three weeks, after seeing him every day for over a month.

Have you seen the duck tornado in the corn field west of Minter City on the south side of highway eight? Impressive to say the least.

I do not have a scanner

My DU calendar has the holidays. It also has a harlequin duck as this months picture, not 3 labs.

Yea, the deal is going down now. Have seen several fawns without their mamas. Little bucks harrassing the does not in yet, but the better deer have vanished. Can not seem to be in the right spot at the right time. Fairly sure he is a "creek" buck, but now since some does have come in he may be anywhere. Clint missed a 15 inch 8 point with decent mass and good tines. Was by himself so he blamed me for not sitting by him and giving him pointers :D . North wind comes back tomorrow so will probably get him in the woods tomorrow afternoon and Thursday. Have not shot any does for meat since we got the pictures of the bigger bucks. Belinda will probably take care of that tis weekend. She plans on hunting and things usually die when she goes.

All that law enforcement over there and spotlighting going on? Guess you have to pick up a snapping turtle or such to get their interest going :wink:

Not much going on at the PMC, but got to be here. Give me a holler when you want to grab some lunch.
