Re: First Band - Double Banded Dos Gris
Is that a tar ball he's standing on?

Re: First Band - Double Banded Dos Gris
It's your old lady's bush. It looks that way from a lack of hygiene.

Re: First Band - Double Banded Dos Gris
You were trying to be a funny guy and bang on my mount. No harm. Thanks.

Re: First Band - Double Banded Dos Gris
Is that a pellet scar on the right leg band. I don't know why but I love bands with the pellet scars.

Re: First Band - Double Banded Dos Gris
That's a great looking mount. That double band is something to be proud of! I'd rather have a double banded bird than a trophy buck any day.

Re: First Band - Double Banded Dos Gris
Nice mount, Team Dos Gris!! Were both bands from the same location? I've never gotten one of those. PS One man's "Dos Gris" is another man's "Bluebill"

Re: First Band - Double Banded Dos Gris
That's really cool! Especially since that one has good color too.
Nothing wrong with bluebills! I mean sure there are better eating ducks, but divers haul ass and provide some great shooting.
