Hunting was great Craig and I hunted with Buck Gardner and killed limits of ducks and some snow geese , blues and specs. The first hunting trip was with Buck on his 60th B-day what a treat!!!

Shane, you the man!

Congratulations on making it out there and holding your head high.  I understand that the competition was tough this year.  I missed seeing it on ESPN, but my thoughts were with all of you guys who were out there.


Where you guys able to stay for Kingdom Dogs on Sunday?  I would have loved to have seen and heard this.  Was it any good?

[Shane]

No had to catch flights...
