RECOMMENDED PRODUCTS
These are products I personally use when I’m in the field hunting and fishing. When you’re an outdoor writer
and photographer you have many opportunities to use many different products. When you’re in the field as much as I am you need products that work. Pro-Drive Shallow Boat and Motors Pro-Drive boat and motors will take you into the backwater areas of the marsh and rivers for the quality waterfowl hunting. All Pro-Drive products are tested for years before distributed for sale and are constructed with the finest parts for long life and dependability. Pro-Drive is the only backwater motor with a full power reverse feature that will allow waterfowler’s to back out of those dead end slews or back out of those tule burms. You can contact Pro-Drive at (337) 229-0034 or the web at www.prodriveoutboards.com Gibson Duck Blind Covers Are the finest duck blind covers that give today’s waterfowler total concealment in the field and on their duck boats. Both blind covers are made to totally cover that black hole and still give hunters plenty of field vision. Both blinds are made of steel conduit and can be purchased with or without the Fast Grass or Gibby Grass. You can also purchase an adapter that will allow hunters to move the blind covers from the field to the duck boat. For more information call (209) 712-3853 or check the web at www.gibsonduckblindcoversinc.com. Haydel’s Game Calls I use Haydel Game Calls for waterfowl and turkey hunting and find the calls very user friendly for the beginning caller and give the professional caller the pitch and tone needed for success. Eli, Rod, and Kelly Haydel are all reed instrument musicians, a quality needed to make game calls for the perfect sounds of the different game animals. Phone (800) 429-3357 or www.haydels.com. Tanglefree Tanglefree can supply today’s waterfowler with all its hunting needs from decoy sinkers to layout blinds. It sells quality product for waterfowlers on a budget that don’t want to sacrifice the quality. Contact Tanglefree at (925) 85-7874 or the web at www.tanglefree.com. Drake Waterfowl System When you are an outdoor writer in the field, you put your clothing to the test and Drake Waterfowl gear has never let me down. Drake manufacturers are hunters and know what features a waterfowler needs to be effective and comfortable. Phone (866) 521-5012 or www.drakewaterfowl.com. Kent Cartridge Don’t spend money for the best sporting goods equipment on the market and then cut the corner on most important part of your hunting gear, your ammunition. Kent Cartridge uses only the best components in their shotgun shells. If you want extra knock down power try the Impact shell made of tungsten or if your using steel, try Kent Fast Steel shotgun shells.
Brunton For the hard-core turkey hunter that demands only the best in the field. All the features of the clothing and vest have been field tested by guides and designed to make your hunts comfortable with everything a hunter needs to be successful. The vest and clothing pockets are designed to require minimal motion for time and safety. Phone (866) 521-5012 or www.oltomgobbler.com. G&H Decoys Don’t look at price when you are buying decoys, look at quality and longevity. There are many import decoy manufactures on the market right now, with inexpensive decoys that will not even make it through one duck season. Many of the import decoys are cracking and sinking or the paint coming off before the end of the season. G& H decoys will last for many years because they don’t cut corners; they paint their decoys with a special UV paint that adheres to plastic and use a high impact plastic that will last for years in all weather conditions. Phone (800) 443-3269 or www.ghdecoys.com. |
