Cool, Honk.. Congrats on a great day.

I haven't killed a ringneck in years.

First one(s) I ever shot were in 1967 on Keuka Lake.

Three ducks came buzzing past and I shot at the first one and killed the first TWO..A hen and a drake ringneck.

I've only shot a couple since.

Thats a good hunt! 

 

Forgive my ignorance, blue wing or green wing teal?  I've only killed a few ever and it was 25 years ago.  I guess they are gone around here when the season opens??

They were green wing teal. I very rarely kill a blue wing teal since they migrate pretty early.

They are fun to shoot because they are sporty little guys. One thing you will notice is that teal will spring straight up after the first shot.

Hopefully the first shot puts one on the water ;.)

      The information taught in this free course will be very valuable in understanding the complex layers of science, politics, and controversies inherent to setting hunting policy. NY Dove Hunting recommends and hopes our members take advantage of this free course. Remember this is a free course without a grade, so like anything else, the more you put into it, the more you will get out of it.

      We want to close our mute swan petition this month and ask for more people to help out by signing it and encouraging others to sign it. We will be launching a petition to legalize dove hunting in the near future and certainly hope the response is much better than we have had with the mute swan issue.
       
      For those of you  think we are a lone wolf in this hunt, read the first link below from Maryland DNR. This has been brewing in the Atlantic Flyway for some time, including a supreme court decision in our favor. However, in NY, the legislature sided with animal rights organizations over the DEC, FWS, Atlantic Flyway Council, Universities, and large conservation organizations. The second link below is to the petition. You can read the signatures and see if you know anyone. Rick McGovern and Tom P, from this site who run the Crossbow Coalition have signed it. Rick is also on our face book page, by the way. The president of the NY Trappers Association has signed, So have many others you all know. Please also sign and share right away.
       
      Refer to this: http://www.dnr.state.md.us/dnrnews/infocus/comments.html Please sign this petition to allow NY's state wildlife agency to continue to make management decisions about mute swans that are consistent with the rest of the Atlantic Flyway Council. In addition to the importance of eradicating this deleterious introduced species; interference with policy regarding mute swans can set a precedent for politics to guide policy regarding other alien species and ultimately, all native species as well. http://www.thepetitionsite.com/832/485/616/veto-s-065889-a-and-a-08790-a/
