"Well the season is over and it was a good one, the drought and 80 degree days made it one to remember.

I would like to thank everyone that made this season special, but there are too many to name. One that comes to mind, when I think back on the 2008-2009 season, would be Mark Reed. Mark is one heck of a man, always having a great time no matter what the hunting or weather was like. Watching him and his dog Lucy reminds me of a young boy and his new puppy, it's fun just watching those two. I hope that Mark and Lucy are around for a long time. Thanks Mark.

We had a lot of great days and there are many good pictures here to look at, so take your time and enjoy.

We're already planning the next season and there's a lot of work to do. Thanks to Rockie, even though he earned the title of "Hen Killer" this year, he never stops working to make Pintail Farms a better place.

Then there is Pepe, what can I say about him, he has a heart of gold. For a guy that knew nothing about duck hunting a year and a half ago, he is on top of it now. All that's left for Pepe is to learn how to blow that duck call.

I hope everybody had a great year. Stay safe till the next one and make sure to get those young ones hunting.

Thanks
Mike Jolley"
