On this episode we’re joined by Brandon Maddox, the CEO of Silencer Central to fully explain shotgun suppressors. The crew spent a full day testing the new product and then discussing its performance. We worried if the unit would cause line of site issues for a duck/dove hunter. Would it swing as smoothly? Was it heavy? We discuss what will this mean for turkey hunters and kids learning to shoot. We also discussed trusts, the future of suppressors plus the removal of the tax stamp starting in 2026, saving everyone $200. It’s a new day in time in terms of suppression and you can learn about it here. Listen, Learn and Enjoy. Send a text message to the show!

One this episode we are once again joined by Dr. Phil Lavretsky of UTEP to update us on the very important Duck DNA project. As you might recall Phil has dedicated the last five years to understanding the game farm mallards genes that have been present in the Atlantic Flyway but are now starting to pop up elsewhere. It’s a scary situation and much is been done to raise money to fund his research. We discuss what was recently found in Canada, what the genes show here and in Europe, hybrids and their occurrence, how you can participate and help, goose DNA, plus we discuss the new Mossy Oak Duck Stamp. It’s a duck hunters podcast that needs to be shared with all waterfowlers. Listen, Learn and Enjoy. Send a text message to the show!
