Old Age Crisis??
For all you young guys and woman, if you think middle age crisis is something wait to you get old. Mine started this year. Started archery hunting again after 20 years, (Hunting mule deer).Bought more decoys (why)?, bought 2 new fishing rods, (I guess the other 20 in the rack are no good). An then the ultimate, bought back my Ron Bauer duck boat. Can't wait to grass it. I plan to hunt it in ND, bring it down to Florida and hunt Appalachicola Bay for redheads. Then go back to NY and hunt black ducks and Brant. Hope this crisis ends soon.lol

Nice buy, getting back a good boat. New decoys and rods, time for the cast n' blast. Best of luck.

Nothing helps a wife learn what her husband wants, and bought or intends to buy, better than a mea culpa on a site with real names. LOL Wink They know us better than we know ourselves sometimes, I bet she's already wise to the waterfowlers' ways.

She got her first semi auto this week - dropped it off at a gunsmith today for fitting. My buddy and I almost put it in a decoy box with decoys on top to present it to her to see what happened. Thankfully I didn't and it went over well. If I pulled the decoy box decoy, it may have been my last post on this website

Here's the pic of the flap. They sit on the deck then bolted through, with a back board under the deck for support.
