Are You A Duck Shooter 
Do you love to stand in the bow of your | 
skiff as it is pushed through the wild rice 
and drop the ducks that get up within 
range; or, if you live by the big waters, 
do you enjoy sitting in the blind while 
cold winds blow and ice forms at the edge 
of the shore, watching the sky and waiting 
for something to come to your decoys? If 
you love these things, if you will bear 
work, exposure and hardship to get a shot, 
you need.
