BY Jeff Cramblit Updated: January 31, 2022SIG’s Zulu6 Image-Stabilized Binos Review + Video
BY Clay Martin Updated: January 3, 2022Stabilized binoculars are pretty rare on the civilian market, but they have a huge following in military circles.

It really does work and is a game-changer for binocular work.

Decoy Spreads with Water Motion
BY David R. Vaught, Ph.D. Updated: January 4, 2024You likely have read about every possible scenario for waterfowl and specifically duck decoy spreads. The J-hook or “J” spread, the “U” spread, the “L” spread, and finally the “X” spread. Add to this the “C” spread or total chaos spread and that should about cover the possibilities. I have used them all and what I have learned over the years is if the ducks want in, they will come in, regardless of the wind direction, exposed hunters, poor sets, or movement.

Summer Project: Make Your Own Waterfowl Layout Boat
BY David R. Vaught, Ph.D. Updated: May 3, 2021Concealment is the key to duck hunting. This is especially true when they get wary and have been dodging shot for a few months. My first introduction to the layout boat idea was many years ago and I still use them today. In my younger days though, money was a little tighter so two other friends and I decided to make three boats one summer in my garage.
