It’s the sound only made by a flock of teal cutting the cold air at breakneck speed. And so it was that the First Dallas Safari Club (DSC) Duck Hunt took place in January 2015.  Hard work and scouting by J.J. Kent of Kent Outdoors put 17 Dallas Safari Club members in the right spot for 2 days of barrel-melting action for mallards, pintails, teal, teal and more.

When I finally decided I needed to experience the fantastic waterfowl shooting I’d been hearing so much about down Argentina way, GetDucks.com was my first, and last telephone call.  They set up my trip down there to the very last detail…All I had to do was the shooting, and eating and drinking.  They have you covered.

An old high school buddy wanted to meet for lunch and discuss a short story for Magnolia Chapter of SCI.  He offered to buy so the invitation was quickly accepted. As we put away plutonium-enhanced hot wings, he explained wanting the story of GetDucks.com as it relates to my own personal history, which he remembered well.

When asked the origins of the brand name, I’ve always quipped, “Because life’s short, get ducks.” Here’s why.

Argentina duck hunting at Rio Salado consists of pure, unbaited, old school duck hunting in a remote 74,000 acre paradise of a wetland.  It’s one of the very best-remaining high-volume Argentina duck hunts, but it’s real duck hunting. And as the following story attests, waterfowl hunting basics apply:

The Argentine sun gently bathes the wetland in soft, orange light, revealing quality waterfowl habitat in all directions, most of it full of birds: several thousand rosybill pochard, five species of colorful teal, white-cheeked and yellow-billed pintails, and red shovelers.

This is the real reason to visit Argentina—­for the unique and diverse species. But I’m also here for the country’s promise of high-volume shooting, which is why I am surprised when, on my first morning, I do not fire a single shell.

If the remainder of my Argentina duck hunting is to be salvaged it will require adjustment, and a reliance on a few waterfowl basics that don’t change according to hemisphere.

What I can say about Mexico is that I simply can’t wait to go back, and that I deeply enjoyed this relaxing trip. Escaping the bitter northern winter to bag bucket-list birds under warm skies in late-February was purely sublime. That first cinnamon teal was like a ghost from a fantasy, and those undulating lines of brant working inward towards our dekes are seared in my brain forever, locked in with all the good stuff nobody can ever take away from you.

Perhaps it’s not a great idea to hunt Canada or any foreign country without an outfitter, especially if you have to tresspass to hunt…My 2013 Canadian experience was great for dark geese, not so much for ducks, although I really can’t complain after collecting 30 ducks over six hunts. I can only hope that the ducks revert to a more traditional pattern this fall. I’ll be waiting in Manitoba to see.  And shooting geese.  Read full report: DOUBLE THE GOOSE FUN IN MANITIOBA
