Lifelong Arkansas waterfowlers Brent Birch and Cason Short discuss duck hunting's past, present, and future with various thought-provoking leaders in the duck-hunting community. The guys will discuss days afield, waterfowl conservation, and stewardship with the goal of leaving the sport of duck and goose hunting better than they found it.

Where are the Ducks? Take 2 with Dave Rave
Retired Louisiana and Minnesota waterfowl biologist Dave Rave follows up his uber-popular “Where are the Ducks?” episode from last season with a fresh take on mallard populations, sex ratios, season frameworks, and limits. Rave details how the early start to the season in the north may be just as damaging to populations as the late January hunting in the south, SWDs, and numerous other management practices that he believes require reevaluation for mallard populations to rebound and hunters to stay in the sport.
