Rating: Summary: Vintage excellence! Review: I have read this book twice. I will read it again and again over my waterfowling career if I could only get my copy back from my hunting buddy! If I do not, I will buy it again and chalk this up to not loaning favorite books out. There is a lot of great information in this book and each time you read it you get some additional nuggets. This book hales from the days when duck calling was not that popular especially in the northeast. A man's expertise with his decoys was what brought them in. The modern duck hunter can imagine the challenges if you did not call. Also, it has a great vintage flair to it and takes you back to when the gunning was different. Worth buying and buying in hard cover cause you will want to keep it!
Rating: Summary: Outdated but a good history of the sport Review: Seriously needs an update. Talks about wooden decoys as the state-of-the-art and fails to note a number of advances we enjoy in the 1998. Would be a good resource for the beginner to get a few of the basics down like do not move in the blind and camoflauge is necessary.
Rating: Summary: Insightful, well written information for waterfowl hunting Review: Very good information on how to select, rig and use decoys for the pursuit of waterfowl. Also good information on blinds and how to use them. Originaly composed by a hunter who spent his days with the market gunners of yesteryear. Interesting depictions of how to rig decoys in a mirriad of situations. A quick read for a wealth of knowledge. GOOD HUNTING!
