Duck Fever

I emailed Directv and received this response. Should be good for tomorrow.

“I got your note about Gulf Coast. Can you tell me your service and your location (including zip code). I can check with the right folks. It’s launching today ahead of the game tomorrow night, so you should be all set. But I can confirm if you provide me that information. – Tom T

I Emailed the Deer Program Manager for LDWF Last year about this very topic. This was his response:

Thank you for the comments and interest. Deer Area 9 is one of two deer areas with a conservative antlerless framework due to numerous habitat and deer productivity concerns. At a time in which statewide reported harvest has set an all-time high (since tagging began in 2008), deer area 9 harvest continues to decline. In this case, Deer Area 9 buck harvest has declined by 31% over the past ten years at a time in which hunters in the rest of the state are reporting increases in buck harvest. The percentage of bucks reported during that same span is 69% in Deer Area 9 compared to 62% prior to the implementation of limited either-sex days. It would be difficult to justify a liberalization for the area at a time in which overall and buck harvest is declining. Coastal habitat loss, limitations in the hardwood pulpwood market, subsidence in swamp hardwood habitats, invasive plant species and the expansion of feral hogs have all likely contributed to the decline.

He then went on to promote the DMAP program in order to be able to shoot antlerless deer any day and to provide data to LDWF.

If you want answers straight from the Top, ask him.

To all the duck hunters out there, how do you compare your opening weekend hunts to the last weekend of the season? Which weekend was more successful for you in your area?

Not good if you had plans for an Either Sex Archery hunt for the weekend of Feb. 1-2. Now it is bucks only Primitive Hunting. Causes area 9 to loose a weekend of Either Sex bow hunting.

Matty Thrice!!!

Does anyone have any experience with the Palmetto AK47’s?

My Lab developed this fear of thunder after being spayed. (Fireworks were always an issue). I use trazodone with some success. She can hear and sense the approaching storms way before we do.

Barnett Stalker 405. Got mine from academy. Fast , quiet, light and accurate.

“Lance the Tapper” offensive rebound machine!

If CJ would have reacted like the suns did after Hayes’ push the officials would have been forced to address Booker’s push.

I agree that what we have is working. But did playing Nance for the first game, or since then, cause any major disruption to the team? I think we got better with Nance. If Z start back easing in as a role player I don’t see it being a big disruption to the team.

I bought my wife the 20 auto in black synthetic 15 years ago for a WI pheasant hunt. I have used it for some duck hunts I’ve the years and for the last 3 years it’s been my dads go to duck gun as it is lighter and easier on him now that he is 80. Had first issue with it last year only because it needed a little cleaning after a rainy day hunt. I like the gun a lot.

Should name it Fleur De Lis Circle

Is there a better budget cellular game camera than SPYPOINT ? I had good and bad experiences with SPYPOINT last season. Is there something better out there for around the same price?
