Decoys

My favorite brand of decoys for duck or goose hunting is Green Head Gear. They are extremely durable and  very realistic. They come in floating and field models for about every type duck or goose there is! They have the original kind or the Pro Grade kind which is made by Avery Outdoors. They Pro Grade ones are a little more expensive but they are probably a little better than the original. GHG  makes more products than decoys too. They make layout blinds, dog blinds, goose flags, hunting clothes, decoys, decoy bags, and decoy weights. So GHG is probably one of my favorite brands of hunting products in general.

Spring Turkey Season

As most hunters know, this time of the year is getting close to spring turkey season. It is one of my favorite seasons because its a challenge to get a big tom turkey in close enough to take a shot. You also have to call them which is tough because tom turkeys are kind of like big whitetail bucks, the older they are the harder they are to hunt and call. Turkeys are constantly being hunted by humans so they can recognize the sound of a hunter calling pretty easily. So having a hen and a Jake decoy in the field next to you will be helpful. They also have very good eyesight so you can't move when they get in close. Wearing a gillie suit and painting your face will help you stay hidden too.

Under Armour Clothes

My favorite brand of clothing for hunting is Under Armour! It is comfortable, quiet, and it is available in scent control for deer hunting. Most of their clothes come in all different camo patterns, like my favorites Max-4 and  Realtree Xtra. They have almost every type of clothes that there are: scent control base layers, camo hoodies, bow hunting jackets, and warm clothes for deer and water fowl hunting. Under Armour clothes are pretty expensive bu they are worth it because of the comfort fit and quality.

Benelli Shotguns

My favorite brand of shotgun for waterfowl hunting is Benelli. They are really reliable and some of them aren't very expensive. They are made in Italy so they have to be imported. The two best shotguns Benelli makes are the Super Black Eagle II and the Super Vinci. They are about $1,700 each but they are worth it. My dad dropped his in the bottom of a lake when we were duck hunting, picked it up, and it worked perfectly. He and I have both had Benelli Super Novas for about four years and the only problem I had with mine is part of the top sight fell out, which i fixed easily. Benelli also makes tactical shotguns and rifles for police and the Military.
