Top pic is just about perfect.

I didn’t get one this year as my corner of Iowa took on the “AK weather rule” of maybe half the days were huntable due to conditions (IMO). High winds and or rain — I’m past the point of having the sorrows out weigh the joys.

But, had one big boy who learned his lessons on public land well do a 270* circle around me and the decoy before concluding, “nope, I’m not buying it”.

Second big Tom I had unexpectedly in at 25 yds hard to my left, in the open. I’m left-handed and had my barrel pointed to the hard right. Didn’t even attempt it.

Enjoyed it all just as much.
