I like to think of this blog as appearing on a scallop shell
amid the foam, clouds billowing, willowy minor goddesses whisping about. But perhaps that image is too… promising.
Waterfowling is my jam (though I'm not a particularly good at it). Unfortunately, I don’t get to hunt as much as I used to. I’ve been stuck doing other things, thinking about the sport rather than pursuing it. Which is fun in its own way at first; but just like a racoon in a live trap, after sitting and sniffing for a bit, my passion has gotten the better of me and I’ve started bashing around trying to dig out through the wire. And thus, this blog.
This blog is about waterfowl hunting. But not so much about the real action of
hunting, like the most effective placement of decoys etc.; rather, I tend to
dwell on the human aspects of hunting, like why we obsess about placement of
decoys.
This blog is also about handloading—especially steel shot. These observations are made at varying
altitudes and with varying levels of data to back them up. I readily draw on the ideas and work of
others, and where I have, I’ll try to be clear in giving credit where it’s due. That said, I’m not that brilliant (I just had
to spell-check brillant), and I may think I’m coming up with an original idea,
unaware that I’m last in a long line.
This blog is also about whatever else may come spilling out
of the ball of baling twine and q-tips I keep inside my head.
