I was introduced to duck hunting by a friend 2.5 seasons agoe by a friend. I am now on our area Ducks Unlimited Chapter, and we started this year our first Green Wings program. I know I cant wait till next season. My Boy will be old enuff to go hunting with us.

My boyfriend introduced me to the sport, and although i am not a fanatic like him (yet) I truely love the sport. I find as a female hunter, a sense of pride when i hunt as there are not nearly as many women hunters as there are male. I try to inform others and read as much as I can about supporting women of hunting, and I think its great. Thanks for the article, its very true that it takes us as sportsmen/women to encourage the sport!

Fantastic article.. need more articles like this written, so people can see why this great sport is so important to us.. Good job.

Everything that you have said is so true we need to get as many new people as we can to try this sport it is one of the great sports out there.Take as many people as you can and show them what waterfowl hunting is about.Great site hope you can continue to get more members everyday.

This is so true we need to be getting new people out in to the fields and blinds. It builds the sport and also as you spark the passion for ducks in someone else's life you will fuel your passion that much more. I have taken 14 year kids out on there first hunt and even 21 year olds who until I taught them had never held a gun. When you are with someone the first time they get a duck their is nothing better then just seeing their face light up, and you recognize the passion starting to take shape. when I see that in a new hunter i could care less if I should anything when I am with them but I will try my hardest to get them on a few birds
