OK, I hunted with Kelly of Kent Outdoors this morning. Witnessed him do what I have only heard others speak of; the stuff of legend. Held a wounded duck by the neck, ran other hand over the head and onto the bill, pushing down so as to make the head crown nicely. Then he bit the duck's head, crushing it's skull, and finishing him off quickly and cleanly.

My questions are simple:

(1) Who else actually does this?
(2) Do you bite until bone cracks or go farther?

Done it plenty of times. Just make sure not to bite to hard. Didn't take me long to realize raw brain doesn't taste real good.

I bite till I hear bone crunch, you only bite to deep a few times before you learn

That's one part of hunting that is rather unpleasant to me. I just ring their neck and then squeeze the ringed part of their neck till they expire. Usually just takes a few seconds.
Best option is a good clean shot at close range.

I crunched one in front of the wife yesterday morning, as I was doing so I tried to hand her one that was still kicking... she just gave me a look.

two shotgun shells used like a nut cracker has the same result PLUS you wont get salmonella (sp)

Just on divers

Not me!!! I still use the tried and true heal-stomp.

its an art to ring the neck without decapitation, hedless ducks make for bad pics

Done it a time or two, just stop when you hear the crunch

I do it for ducks and geese

I have a small sharp flat-head screwdriver. I push in from the back into the brain case. They flap a couple of times, then go limp. Quick and they still look good for pics.

This ^^^. You want to just break it, it comes easy for me. Good thing too, becasue no way I'm biting a duck head till it crunches!!

Tried everything on bluebills ...bite only thing that seems to work..or maybe I just need to hit the gym more..lol

not me, but I've seen Kelly and a few others do the same thing....

Wimps..

No me. LoL

U know when u bitten to far.

Been doing it for a few years now. Mainly do it on bird I might mount or a bird that I don't wanna mess up...otherwise just ring the neck

I do it.

man yall been watching too much Bear Grillis!!!!

Never decapitated a duck or goose doing it, but have done it on plenty of doves and quail.

Diver auto mud stomp. Non wall hanger ring its neck. Wall hanger CPR to keep it alive to let the taxi do the dirty work.

It is a Duck Commander deal...I bet they shoot Benelli's and Black Cloud too

Never done it but it sounds like something to tell my four year old is the way it should be done. My wife would absolutely freak...this is gonna be fun...
