Duck hunting isn’t dead… but it is changing — and if you’ve felt it lately, you’re not crazy.
In this episode, I’m giving my State of Duck Hunting address — plus the state of Duck Gun Chronicles, the Duck Gun Podcast, and Duck Gun Wild Seasoning. We’re talking real issues: wetland loss, drought, public land pressure, educated birds, and why success has to be earned right now. No influencer finger-pointing. No excuses. Just what I’m seeing, what I’m hearing, and what it means for hunters going into the next season.
We also hit:
Why some guys struggled this season (and why others didn’t)
Blue-wing teal numbers and what that means for seasons
Pintail limit changes and how that plays out in real hunts
Why habitat matters more than any internet argument
The reality of YouTube cracking down on shotgun/ammo content
Recipes, off-season plans, and what’s next for Duck Gun
If you’ve had a weird season, if public land feels packed, or if you’re worried about the future of waterfowl hunting—this one’s for you.
