Yessir it was!! First bird of the morning for me. I was actually hunting with DagoDucks nephew, and as I called this bird in, said to him, “you take first crack at it.” Was maybe twenty feet straight over our heads. He shot and missed, I shot and it fell about three or four feet away from him. Almost about to report it. Wanted to wait til I got home to do it so that I could do it with the boys.

Congratulations on the DOUBLE BAND!!! Assuming 2nd band is a reward band?
Yessir. $100. It was green at one point but it’s so worn that it’s down to the aluminum again. The only green is inside it, the part that touched the actual leg and then the etching inside the numbers. The federal one was about to fall off. When I shot it, I hit where it was crimped and blew the band apart. There’s a bb dimple on the inside of it now.
