our hands always get cold despite warm gloves—too much time sitting still, waiting and anticipating. You’ve been sitting a while now, quietly but eagerly boring holes in the cloud cover overhead with your eyes, hoping to see the birds you know must be up there. By the time your focus is interrupted by the jet engine sound of the birds’ wings ripping through the cold air behind your head, you know it’s going to happen fast, or not at all. They’ve snuck up on you again. To succeed, you know everything up to this point has to come together. You know your gun and your shotshells and how they pattern with your choke. And you know you can hit a fast-flying target if they’ll just work
the wind and the decoy spread right, giving you a chance the way you’ve imagined they would. You and your gear are prepped, checked, tested and double-checked. You’ve failed. You’ve learned. You’re experienced. You’ve evolved over time to be a better hunter than you were in past seasons, and the moment is no longer too big for you. Hardcore waterfowlers and waterfowling gear are constantly evolving. Waders, outerwear, ATVs, decoys and even the design of the duck call hanging around a hunter’s neck are constantly changing and improving through in- novation. This pursuit of better strategies, techniques and gear is driven by the innovative companies answering the call of passionate waterfowlers who know what they need
DIAMOND CUT WAD This special wad contains three rear-deploying petals that stabilize the shot cup in flight for tighter patterns.
STACKED HEX SHOT Cubed (hex) shot is stacked like bricks in an unsplit shot cup that holds patterns together. The shot cloud hits waterfowl like a swarm of fast-moving tumbling bricks, minimizing over penetration and maximizing energy transfer.
