Wherefore Art Thou, Mallard?

Day 9. Better than expected. But still not that good.

Fred, Blake, J-Hawk & I made our last trip to the Home Field for the first split of the 11/12 season. A heavy cold front moved through as we hunted, making for tough shooting. 30+ m.p.h. winds and spits of rain from the north ultimately resulted in expensive ducks. We left with 20.
