With duck season upon us, I am bumping an all-time great thread.

Bill, were you ever able to see the 8mm footage that was shot in the Scatters in the early 60's that Mr. Son supposedly had? If I remember correctly, on one of your visits he told you that he thought he had it stored in his attic. I would give almost anything to view the footage.

I just read this thread for the first time, great history.
I know it's a long shot but any chance Mr. Jordan is still with us and selling calls?

My son and I visited with him last year and bought a call. He had been having some medical problems, but stated he was doing much better and intended to begin making calls again. I really hope he was able to. He and his wife are extremely nice people. Give him a call.

I don't get on here much, but I have to echo the thanks of many in sharing all of this! My grandmother grew up in Glendora and reading that article and seeing names I recognized sure brought back some great childhood memories. Again thanks for sharing!

I agree...such a great thread. I am truly fascinated with stories like these from our past.

Great thread. Rebelduckaholic, I sent you a PM re: Frankie Tominello's duck stamps . . .

If any of you other longtime Greenwood/Scatters/Grasspatch guys have any pictures of Frankie Tominello hunting the Scatters, I really would appreciate a PM (he hunted a lot with Johnny Barrett). Mr. Frankie passed nearly two years ago at 95. He was a heck of a guy and a great duck hunter and crappie fisherman. Mr. Frankie's grandson is a longtime friend and hunting buddy of mine (we were in Greenwood a couple weekends ago cleaning out the remnants of Mr. Frankie's house before it went on the market). His grandson attended law school with me and we both moved back to Greenville to practice. If anyone has anything relating to Mr. Frankie (pictures, stamps, etc.), I sure would like to be able to pass it on to his grandson. In fact, when Drew (his grandson) got married a couple years ago, my blind bag had just been stolen along with 2 Son Jordan calls that Mr. Frankie had given me. Drew drove to Greenwood and got Mr. Son to give him a replacement for my stolen calls and gave it to me as a groomsmen's gift.

Again, great thread, and if anyone has anything like I mentioned, please give me a shout . . .
