A Successful Fall Harvest

Ken Kishman won a special edition Aluminum Magnum call that Derby City makes exclusively for Poor Boys Outdoors.  Ken put that call to good use during Kentucky’s opening segment of the Fall Turkey Season.  Ken killed this hen using one of our calls and we would like to congratulate him on a successful fall harvest.  Here is what Ken had to say about our call, “This is the best fall call I own, and does kee-kees way better than any of my diaphragms.  Thanks for making such a superior product.” 

We would like to thank Ken for the kind comments and to congratulate him again on his hunt.  If you have pictures and a good story, send them to us.  We would love to share in your success.

Early Duck Action

I got an invite to join my good friend and fellow Pro Staffer, Scott Cronin, to do some wood duck hunting in Western Kentucky over the weekend.  This would be my first time hunting waterfowl, so needless to say, I jumped at the opportunity.  Brian Grossman of Poor Boys Outdoors came with me to film the hunt and do a little hunting as well.  Scott’s good friends Wes Belt and Mike Ausbrooks joined us for the hunt also.

Scott had scouted the area well, so we set up a spread to get some pass shooting.  Our hopes were to get some good video footage for Poor Boys Outdoors.  The problem was, the birds did not want to cooperate.  We had to pack up the spread and go after the birds.  Once we located birds we would sneak in and get them on the jump.  This was very effective, as we all limited out both Saturday and Sunday mornings.  I will admit that we all missed our fair share of birds on Saturday morning, but we were dialed in on Sunday.  The misses were few and far between that day.

My first duck hunt was an awesome experience.  Scott and Wes’s wives, Morgan and Dawnyelle took good care of us.  They had breakfast waiting on us when we returned to camp and cooked some good meals for us.  Ladies, that was really appreciated.  Relaxing by the fire, telling stories, laughing, building new friendships, and strengthening old ones.  That is what hunt camp is all about.  Thanks a bunch for the invite my friend.  Wes, Mike, and Brian, look forward to seeing you guys again soon.

Poor Boys Outdoors

I would just like to give everyone some information on a new company that is based in Mount Washington, Ky.  Their name is Poor Boys Outdoors.  They make hunting videos and are looking to get into the Louisville market  this fall.  Hopefully, their show will be picked up by the Outdoor Channel or another major channel in the near future.  We met some of the guys and they are a bunch of down to earth boys who love to hunt and make videos.  Check out their website at www.poorboysoutdoors.com.  Derby City is looking forward to working with these guys for years to come.
