Most duck hunters, young and old,  want to know what happened  in the olden and golden days when the old timers pursued their love of duck hunting,  but not everyone has the time  nor patience to read through  a bunch of books and outdoor magazines. Through this podcast, the old timers and their stories are drawn from life while being a duck hunter, and their stories will fascinate you and resonate within you.

This episode is a continuation of Episode 1 which gives the history of duck hunting from the time Europeans set foot upon this continent, so it covers from 1607-1700. With each podcast of Historic Duck Hunting Stories,  I hope to instill in you the beauty of our sport during the olden and golden days as seen through the eyes of the old timers.

When the Europeans arrived they landed in what they would describe as "Nature's Masterpiece" or "Hunter's Eden," as this New World which they came to was filled with game and the skies and wetlands were abundantly supplied with game, especially waterfowl. They had never witnessed such profusion of waterfowl during the seasons. If not for the Indians supplying them with venison, turkeys and waterfowl they probably wouldn't have survived as the majority of them had not been allowed to hunt in the Old World.
