The double teaming must've done the trick: he says he's since found Jesus.

It was when I was 14 we had found a place that the ducks were hitting in the bottom but you had to have a boat to get to it. Got us a boat didn't have a 4-wheeler to pull it so we loaded it up with our gear and started pulling it down the railroad tracks by hand, made it bout 400 yards before we were dead tired. Well we started pulling again and got to the 3rd trussel and what do you kno a train comes couldn't get the boat off the tracks we jumped in the water and lost erthing and took a beating when I got home.

I think my biggest mess up was when i was about 14 or 15, me and my brother were hunting about 200 yards apart down a pipeline. Well the particular stand i was in was a 14 foot lean to and it was an afternoon hunt. Wind was picking up and after I had a big lunch id had fallen asleep around 230-300. I hear a crack and wake up, im looking around seeing its about 4 thinking to myself, wind has died down maybe the deer will start moving. Im looking around and i see my brother walking my way, im begin wondering if he shot or something. All I could think of is he is coming to get me and we are about to trail a deer. I get off my stand and at about 40 yards out in front of my stand i see it. Big nanny dead in her tracks, you could imagine i heard about that one for a few years. We figured it up at 176 yards with a 30-30.

Drove an hour to deer hunt one morning and unloaded the four wheeler, put my safety vest on, and did everything else I usually do. The last thing was reaching in the passenger front seat to get my bow and having forgot it.
Then there was the great duck rodeo. I shot this mallard drake and I swear 40 + yards. Stupid shot and I should not have taken it, but, the duck dropped stone cold dead. I walk out there and pick up this dead duck up and bring it back to the blind. Throw it in with the other birds and this duck rises from the dead. It's to close to shoot so I think I'll just walk over and ring it's neck. This duck is very much alive and I chase this sucker through 50 yards of buck rush before I dive on it and have ahold by both hands. My hunting partner is laughing so hard I think he wet himself.

When I first started duck hunting I went to the local hunting store and told the guy running it that I wanted to buy a duck call. He gets one off the shelf and I pay him for it. The next morning I go to a friends minnow ponds and before daylight I start blowing my new call, it kinda sounds funny but I've never duck hunted so I don't know any better. Couldn't even get a meganser within two hundred yards with that rabbit squeler predator call. 

How much wood, wood a wood duck-duck, if a wood duck wood duck wood?

I once put a live possum in an OOSers unlocked truck. Not that that is dumb but kind of silly.
