Great post Kamo !
Took my little brother hunting for the first time when he was 6. I was 13. So it’s been 50 years for us, of hunting together now.

Over 50 years now, since very similar episodes took place with my brothers and me. I am blessed to still have them both, now we’re in our 70s.

That was a great story and honoring that Black was a nice touch too!

Great story thanks for sharing. I didn’t have any brothers but spent a lot of time growing up with my male cousins. Great memories for sure.

Good stuff Gari. Thanks for sharing. Probably the most incredible "shot a black duck in the late 90's and got skunked this morning" story I have ever read.

C'mon Travis, you're clearly kind of flailing now, kid. I ain't EZ pickens Fireballzdeuce. Dial it back some. For a guy who thrives on details and being perpetually cocked while sucking on the juice of the low hanging fruit and pointing out every trivial crumb of minutiae you feel is slightly inaccurate posted by others here which you feel you're the master of, well, I think you're just showing your bare arse. Who or what's got your goat lately, anyway? Don't give a monkey's funky honestly, but might I suggest you jump on an easy target in STX. He just sold his house and is poised to take over the world selling 'kustum' knives he cobbles up in his rental shed between flooring jobs and devouring piles of lobsters and random shellfish I overnight him-- in exchange for a few store-bought tamales.
