Let me start by saying; Taking 9 other guys out onto a giant lake via a 3 mile boat ride is stressful!
Besides that, we shot half of our limit of birds along with 7 geese. This whole hunt is about taking new people out/people who don’t get the opportunity to get out and hunt like we do.
As we always say here at Midwest Flyways: The traditions of the outdoors is bigger than ourselves and we strive to keep that tradition alive by exposing more people to the outdoor life that we know and love.
The opener hunt is always a special one, it’s a holiday! After an entire year of not shooting birds we get to wade into the muck with our dogs and toys.
I love putting new people on birds and getting them hooked on my passion like I am (if it’s even possible to be as hooked as I am) and watching their eyes light up as birds are working in front of them. That’s what opener is all about for us. Getting new people into the sport and showing people a good time!
Notice this:
We would like to thank ALPS OutdoorZ for their support in this hunt. They have a passion for getting new hunters into the blind and so they were the perfect partner for this hunt.
