Around the Campfire Tonight: It’s getting cooler, but I think it’s false fall and I hate it
Warheads on Foreheads with Mike
Dave’s thing In the early 1800s, grizzly bears were one of the biggest threats to cattle. While the Anglo-American style was to use heavy artillery to control threatening bears, the vaqueros preferred to rope them from the back of a well-trained horse. This method of bear control required a great deal of skill and was a dying vaquero art.
What can we learn from this?

First things first: Gideon warranty issue. I broke it!! Not on purpose!
Military Ducks!
Campsite, flock was 200 yards away. Put the stalk on em, low, rolilng. Klecker’s holster held up amazingly. Didn’t think about wind till it was prob too late.
Slept so bad. Got about three hours and when I noticed it was getting light, got up to set decoys.
Just when I was starting to fret (20 mins in) first flock came in. Found a downside to the Advocate: it fogged. That’s probably fixable with some anti fog spray. Regardless, the mount on the 1187 allows use of the bead sight. Transitioned to the bead and dropped a drake
Just about 40 mins later, another flock of four flew over and came in. Dropped one, then another.
Wanna talk about the bird behavior I witnessed. Holy shit they’re pilots.
Went on a bit of a row. Chased the buffleheads around but they’re wise to me. Found some mergs and took one down. All I hear is how bad they taste. So what do I do? Make an omelet. Honestly, it was incredible. Like a damn good steak omelet. I will happily shoot mergs again.
First time ever, ended up with 3 packages of excess duck meat.
