    2024 Plans & Gear Upgrades

    All I wanted to do when I was a kid was chase ducks and geese so I get it! Grouse is my main passion now but I still get out quite a bit for ducks each year. Luckily ducks in the morning and grouse after breakfast is usually on the table.

    For what it is worth, I have a Final Rise and it's the best vest I have ever personally used. I will hunt with it until it no longer functions which by its build quality will be a loooong time. I have driven through the Sandhills a few times and it has always intrigued me. I've read a few...

    It's getting to that time of year where birds begin to take over my brain as I hold on to hopper fishing for trout.
