Three new hunters in training........

[DT10Sam]

Last night I received a call from a friend of mine asking if I would like to join them on a goose and mentoring one of his sons. I agreed and had a great time observing 3 new hunters on their first goose hunt. The mentoring program is a great method to introduce young hunters to our wonderful livelihood of hunting. I enjoyed calling in the geese for these youngsters as they opened up on the geese that were fooled by our calls. We were successful in taking 2 limits which were more than enough birds for 3 families and let the rest live for another days hunting in a couple of weeks.

 

Youngsters are relaxing while the grownups are setting up decoys.

Sweet, love seeing the kids out there. I just started waterfowl hunting three years ago and absolutely love it. (whispering) More than fishing, but don't tell anyone.

 

 

I have the same SLO hat, at least that's what it looks like.
