Post Tundra Swan hunt from NC
Just got back from my annual swan hunt in Washington Co., NC. What a blast. I was the last shooter and got this nice mature swan. We went 13 for 13 that day. We had a mixture of everything from 1 shot kills to 400yd dog retreives. Great day to be out.

Econo..LOL you took the words right out of my mouth. As I looked at the bottom pic I said the same exact thing..Those are some big birds. I bet they really look like 747 as they glide in.
