Hunting with your Spyderco - post pics if ya got ‘em

[Riz!]

If you hunt and have pics of your hunts (especially with your Spyderco) please add them here! Fishing pics are welcome too! Consider this the trophy room


I went out for opening day of duck season yesterday and bagged a limit of wood duck. Here are some pics. I always have a Military in my pocket along with whatever other fixed blade I carry. Didnt want to risk dropping it into the swamp so I didnt take any pics of it out while actually hunting. Here are some photos for you to enjoy.

Squirrels get big here. That is a 5 1/2 inch barrel and a 4 inch blade.

Squirrel and dumplings. Mmmm...

I haven’t duck hunted in years. I always loved it.

I was hoping the waterway would be out by now. Fishing is about to really turn on down here in Texas.

Great photos guys. Big hunter, big Spyderco fan myself, but don't have any Spyderco hunting photos. Did clean a doe with a LT Wright Kephart and a Leatherman last fall form the hell of it.

I've hunted from the ground on a stool just like that one before!

 

[bearfacedkiller]

Ha, that stool is probably 20 years old and about ready to die. You can see where two of the legs are poking through in that pic. I have caught hundreds of fish sitting on it icefishing and shot many critters sitting on it in the woods. I lost it on an elk hunt in Colorado a few years ago in the timber and by chance stumbled upon it a few days later. I usually just tuck it under the belt strap on my fanny pack while walking and it must have fallen out without me noticing. I am getting older so I am looking forward to replacing it. My back really wants me to get one that it just a little taller. It is a little short now for this middle aged man's back.

Top photos. I hunt and carry an Endura 1 SE but don't think I have a photo of it 'out bush'.

Will try to post a hunting photo in the near future.

Is that a New England Firearms single shot? While I was still in college, early 1990s, that is the first gun I bought myself in a 12 guage. Have used it for everything but Ducks. Still use it for deer to this day on some stands that are so thick, where the longest shot I have is less than 20 yards.

It is indeed a NEF Pardner in 3” mag 12ga. My dad bought it for me 30 years ago when I was 9. He bought that for me and said the reason was, I could only accidentally shoot him once with it!!! He still has that F’D up sense of humor

Carried it two seasons until I could handle a larger gun and then I got an 870. The 870 is still my go to gun for birds. That duck hunt was the first time I actually killed anything with the Pardner. I always missed because it punches the cheek like Mike Tyson. I was afraid of the recoil.

It was actually fun because the gun is so light and easy to carry. Plus having one shot made me really slow down my shooting and added a challenge to the hunt

Oh, forgot to mention that the gun was $89.00 when he bought it.
