« on: May 03, 2007, 06:07:51 AM »
I know it is a bit late , but I wanted to make folks aware of the GreenWing DU event this Saturday in Sikeston.   We will have hot dogs, chips and soda, a nice Lab demo , field retrieve , etc.   Keith Allen, reknowned Duck Caller will be with us to do a calling Demonstration and suggest tips for beginners.  We will have a skeet shoot....broken down in age groups , trophies for the winners...we'll be contructing Duck boxes..., we'll have a lay-out boat, and decoy setup, and the Missouri Dept of Conservation will have a guy or two there, to suggest safety tips in gun safety , and overall ways to improve or help Habitat for the Ducks.    Admission is free.....If you are familiar with Sikeston....go south of walmart ( Highway 61/62)to Cnty rd 824, t/r...follow that gravel road ( and follow the signs)  about a mile to the event .   We hope to have good weather...and lots for the boys and girls to do .  Every kid under 17 gets a free duck call.   Come on out...let's get "Quackin".....Sat May 5th   10 am -2 Pm

UPDATE  !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Raindrops  were dodged and the whole event went off well.   Had about 37 greenwings sign up for a few hours of food, ducks, some dog training demo's, skeet shooting, and some GREAT Duck Calling by Keith Allen 
 
*   Founder - PureDuck Calls
*   Creator and Host of "The Fundamentals of Duck Call Operation" Instructional CD
 
 
*   2003 Mack's Prairie Wings Regional Champion
*   Grand American Champion
*   Mississippi Valley Regional Champion
*   Western Missouri Open Champion
*   Masters of the Marsh National Hunting Style Calling Champion
*   3 Time World Finalist

So if you missed Keith ,as you can see by his pedigree above.....you missed a heck of a day of calling instruction.

The Greenie's got to do some skeet shooting, and try their hand at some duck box building as well.....A fun day .....for all.
The SwampEast Chapter of DU looks forward to Next Years event......we'll put it here first.......and hope maybe some of you can attend the 2008 version .
