been a while since I have posted, glad to be back...the last few months have been busy busy. I got a new job with Drymala Construction working down around houston, company truck and all up

this new gig should keep me busy, but I'll still hunt as much as I can

It's my understanding the new position is upper level management?

I too have also enjoyed your friendly banter as well. I have found it difficult to post over the past three months. Computer glitch I'm sure.

Mr Lilly, great to see you around, sir. I look forward to your many pictures of sub-gauge hunts this year up

Limitextender, I was fortunate enough to land an upper middle management position. This opportunity I've been afford is not one a man turns down. in this corporate environment I look forward to doing as little as possible and flying under the radar as long as possible.

#hayraker, I hope you get your computer issues taken care of, nothing more frustrating. You should PM a mod, maybe there is something on their end that needs to be fixed? Speaking as an ex-mod I'm positive they'll be more than helpful.

By the way Garrett, not sure if you have been away from hunting for a while as well, but if you have forgotten the basics and need a refresher on which calls to use, how to manipulate your spread, load/choke combinations etc. just give me a call on my cell and I'll walk you through it.

Is the J hook still the way to go on setting a spread?

It's been a few years since I really got after them and could use some pointers. This year I really wanna focus on killing mallards on my new lease in Katy, the guy I leased from said it's loaded with em. Since I've always been a diver man I don't have any mallard decoys, but I have 11 jacks. Will that work?

I know I'll get made fun of for killing mallards, but they make a pretty tailgate picture IMO. I know they taste like an old tire, but let's face it, we don't hunt to feed the family these days.

There is a better chance of Judd killing a pile of well anything than you killing a pile of mallards.

That post doesn't even make sense. Everyone knows Judd is legendary mallard killer. And he don't shoot hens either.

Dear Garret, please assume this post is a joke and is not to be taken serious

I think they have to put a valid reason on there. Anyway my computer seems to
Be working good now after running McAfee virus scan and defragmenting the hard drive.

Birds are wise to the J-hook these days. You really have to think outside the box if you want a badazz tailgate pic.
