Hi fellow waterfowlers, Vert back with you for another survey. If you remember early this year I surveyed you guys and gals about the mighty 10ga and new supermag 12 ga. The research I collected, well I should write an ebook about it. Who knows I might. Well back to the survey. Who hunts with dog. No not your best friend but your real best friend the one who will follow you to that cold dark marsh for that elusive Mallard. To the point to Vest or Not?! I will buy Coal my trusty 3yr Lab a vest,hold on, because We hunt in heavy marsh, sneak boat or marsh standing no blind. Now thats duck hunting. Put on the longjons, cover your bod in neoprene and just hard marsh hunt. I can still do blind but this is the for real stuf. BUT Talk is that vest is not good but we cover for harsh conditions, shouldn"tthey be covered also? IF SO should it be close to the body or a little loose. Maybe to loose then to much water between the body and vest. To Tight my cause dog to run funny and say hell this stinks, but I am sure comfortable from not being covered in ICE all the time and running thru the hard marsh. SOOO your thoughts V or not to V,Thats the question.Again nice talking with you G's again.
