    Talking two bands so far

    Well my season is going well so far. Picked up a pair of bands over the weekend. I'm pretty proud of these ones. Should make for a great start of a season.

    Re: two bands so far

    Cool picture congrats to you and marshall.

    How's this for a band? How much do you think it'll go on ebay for

    1st Im in charge, and if not Matt is. Your job is to sign checks, tell us we're doing good and open your case of scotch after a good day. 2nd my fee. You can keep it, all I want in exchange for my service is the right to hunt all the drakes. A male. Buck only. Why and how are my business. If you don't like it, go alone. Set up right here or in a swamp or in the middle of a noshoot field for all I care. I've been on too many duck hunts with rich dentists to listen to any more suicidal ideas. Ok?

    I should start hitting up all the old-folks homes and stealing them, I could make a new lanyard out of fishing line or something There most be some pro-staffers from the states who are in need of bands to make them look more professional.

    No such thing as a stupid question. Actually the bands in the first picture are for a CKC Hunt test for Dogs. There are similar in size to what you'd find on a large duck.

    Here is a picture of a large drake black duck I shot back east with a band on it.

    I've hunted waterfoul since I was twelve. I have never even see one of those in real life. Maybe the area I hunt?!?
    Do you have to report them or is it voluntary and to who?

    You should report it, it's free. There is a toll free number on the bands and you just call it up and give them the number on the band. You get to keep the band and they send you off a report card that tells you what breed, sex, and roughly the age of the bird, and where it was banded. I've only ever shot 5 with bands, 3 in the same day. It helps if you're in an area where banding takes place or a popular flyway.

    Did you get a ribbon too Marc? Those bands are more my style, I would proudly wear those on a dog training whistle.
