My favorite hunts sometimes are just me and the dog.

Due to an odd work schedule, every duck hunt I've made this year has been solo. I'm really not a huge fan. I'll do it because I love duck hunting, but I prefer to have one other person with me. It helps because you don't miss Birds coming in as much, and the conversation and companionship means that I'm more likely to stay out there longer.

Sometimes I love it, sometimes it's a pain. I do find myself when solo, trying new spots and different approaches. Have had phenomenal solo hunts though... I highly reccomend it, but wear a life jacket and use caution if your hunt involves a boat.

I make a couple solo hunts a season and enjoy it. I love hunting with my buddies, but sometimes getting out there alone is nice. Really relaxing. That said, I wouldn't want every hunt to be solo. Nothing better than getting out there and shooting the shite with the boys.

I enjoy it. Easier to hide one person vs. 2 or more.

on the rare occasions I do it. I make damned sure somebody knows where to come look for me..

that day back in 1998 when I learned you don't sink in waders comes to mind....have not gone in a boat bymyself since that day.

Yep, I love solo hunts where I can pick out 6 good ducks to shoot, and I get to work my dog. I've always had a blast every time I've just decided to go on my own for a quick trip.

I love it. I shot my first banded speck this year on a solo hunt and it was a bit weird me celebrating by myself .

The only thing I like better than solo hunts are taking my buddies or family members who rarely get to hunt. Its about as close to being a hunting guide as I will ever get.

I duck hunt Christmas Day solo pretty much as my tradition.

It is my nice break to myself to just sit back and end a year.

I've hunted alone a couple times by myself, but I prefer to be with buddies. The conversation and stories about the "old days" are what make the hunts for me.
