Where'd THAT Name Come from Anyway?

DuckyDan thought it might be fun to see where we got our usernames.I agree.

sportsman450 is a reference to my fishin buddy calling me the 450lb sportsman.

Tell us about yours.

My ex-girlfriend used to give me a hard time about duck hunting all the time and blowing my calls while I drive down the road. She said, "One of these days, you're going to turn into a duck!" She said I cared more about ducks than I did her! Oh well, that's who started calling me DuckyDan!

Well my jersey number in high school was #22, and since I'm the greenhead slayer, I put them together, Greenhead22.

Mine came from an old camp some buddies and I had in the Central Delta. We'd "chase" the mallards all over that area, and being that I'm heading backing into public hunting, I'll be chasing them all over the state.

Lurking at the only forum site I knew, the Refuge, way back when, on the old wavy screen forum, the mood was private hunting and Benellis's. I didn't register nor post 'cause I figured I wouldn't fit in. Well when I finally tried to register, all the usual names were taken, and I figured my post's would hang there like a booger on the face of a beautiful woman, just messing it up.

booger wasn't taken (suprise) and never is, so it was much simpler to keep the same name on different forums.

Besides, most duck hunters I've known or met are usually called, porkchop, kneeboot, skillet, cheddar, 151, hambone, etc. Anybody hunt with an "Avianquest" ? :roll: :lol:
Them ducks is wary. We now resume our regularly scheduled forum melee in progress.

Cause I like chicken. Better than breastman or legman or thighman......or is it? But really, I like to fly. The wingman is the second plane in a pair in combat, and he watches the leader's back.

My lungs lack the capacity to hit the loud reeling high balls (like you really need to). This is probably as a result of years of abuse to my lungs through the use of too many tobacco products (I actually agree with my wife on THIS issue). For personal safety reasons, I choose to work ducks that are close in with the "ole softcall" or else I may pass out and fall in the hole and drown....hence the name "softcall".
