If done right, owning a duck club is an all-year job and the guys at the Lone Oak Duck Club do it right. That hot sweaty work all summer starts to pay off and by November the place is a duck cafeteria.
There’s a long season ahead, but first… the traditional night-before-opening-day bonfire.
Even though I don’t deer hunt in Missouri anymore I think it’s fun to play with my Bushnell trail cam just to see what’s sneaking around our Bates County property at night. I keep hoping I’ll catch something exotic like a mountain lion or bear, but this eight point buck will have to do for now.
He may even make it through the coming deer season as he seems to be pretty nocturnal. But if anybody bags him, can I have a couple of loin chops?
