I think videos might make it look like that. They were about 40 yards max. I prefer not to wing them. Fortunately we didn't lose any birds :). Thanks man! Forever chasing the X. For them good hunts with the good Ol boys
There’s nothing awesome about taking shots that far. It was opening day. These guys could have properly decoyed hood birds, but they basically just pass shot the whole time.
@@tonygonzales1122 oh man I can’t wait!!! Headed to Arkansas next week for specklebelly then Bama for veterans hunt then Mississippi opening weekend after that so it’s right here can’t wait posting hunting videos again
Hahah that 30 mins I’m usually nervous. Been hunting ducks since 96 and it’s the same every morning. Anxiety, gotta take a shit, then I pray and thank the Lord for being so blessed to be able to do it. Check the dekes, organize my shells, then get to whackin
Just drew two reservations here thanksgiving week! Never have been there before. Any tips for grizzly? I live like 40 min away can I go and scout before the dates?
Jeremy, if you have time, drive out on one of the hunt days (Wed, Sat, Sun) in the afternoon and do an afternoon hunt to scout Grizzly in the daylight. You won’t need a reservation for afternoon refill as most everyone will be gone. Water levels are really low right now so free roam hunters are bunched on top of each other. Also, bring bug spray and watch out for all the giant yellow jackets this time of year.
@@herbertcole3456 currently typing this from one of the parking lots at grizzly. That’s exactly what I’m doing right now. Just talked to the Ranger. Think I found my spot I’m gonna purse, just a whole other ball game in the dark. I hear they have built blinds but I have no idea what they look like
Grizz is a first come first serve for both reso and sweat line. So if you are there early, you can get on early even if reso isn't that high. "pond 11" blinds shoot decent if they have water. Crescent unit blinds shoot good in weather, suck otherwise. Free roam is hit or miss on ponds. Hunted big and small water out there and done good.... and bad. Take a honker call, always a few in the area. And a walking stick, there are some deep 4' holes in those ponds. the bottom is peat so it is sticky, and deep.
the worst 30 minute wait in duck hunting is when ducks land in your spread and it's still 30 minutes before shooting time. Trying to stay quiet the entire time and not scare them off before shooting light is agony.
No no that wasn't us someone shot 10 minutes early. Like at 6:38 weeks didn't start shooting till there was a warzone going off. Its just the way I edited the video. Haha. My apologies where did we talk or meet at? I talked to a few people that day.
bro I’m not mad, i dig your vibe and I’m a California native and hunter (Yolo) but come onnnnn….. Video after video of California duck hunters just pass shooting ducks. All shots longer than 35+ yards. Most vids with no water motion or jerk string. The refuges are so competitive and I get it (sounds like the 4th of July) and I like to shoot ducks too. But little hard to watch
Its a vibe. The reason why we don't have jerk strings is because we have motion ducks in our decoys. We are on a refuge that allows over 600 hundred hunters and yes every time you decoy a duck someone is shooting and messing it all up. As far as 40 years shots I won't waste my time with those. I'm not into wounding ducks. And don't like chasing them across a levi. Keep in mind cameras make it look like your shooting 3 times further then they actually are. To have a hunt like this on a public refuge that allows this many people is a win win! Show me your perfect hunts ❤. Love to watch. What does Yoko do 26 people? Separate lots?! Shiii you could have as many hunters as you want on ours.
@@tonygonzales1122 aite, good counters and I totally get it. Good point about the camera. There’s just another big duck hunting RU-vid channel and it’s tough watching pass shoot after pass shoot. And LOL I don’t think I’ve had a perfect hunt - perfect hunt for me is being with dad / uncle / buddies. Good luck next year!
@@bobcostas1331 I get it everyone one wants to criticize everyone's hunt till they are in it. I watch all of them. Which one are you referring too lol. Bobby guy?
@@tonygonzales1122 for sure, another good point. I’d rather not name but Bobby Guy def does not always pass shoot (love that channel!). And I still love this other guys channel, just the actual style of shooting and the hunt (guess that’s the main thing) just bugs me when i watch his vids. He is most notable CA hunters in flyway collective
