Show Notes
On this episode of the Migration Waterfowl Podcast, your host Brian Halbleib talks with his friend Elliott Snider. They discuss their recent experiences at Meyers Family Farm in Missouri and the boat trip they took on the Kansas River. Meyers Family Farm is a duck hunting property managed by Ben Meyers, owner of Flight Day Ammunition, and some of his family members. Brian and Elliott talk about Elliott’s experiences touring and hunting Meyers Family Farm last season, the new duck hole they helped Ben cut into a section of flooded timber on the property and the fun they had shooting clay targets after the work was done. They also talk about the unique hunting techniques they employ in places like private ground with flooded timber in Missouri and the differences compared to other hunting locations they are used to. They also get into shooting practice, the benefits of bismuth ammo, and preparations for a float trip that Elliott was hosting through his Freelance Duck Hunting YouTube Channel and his North American Waterfowler Podcast. Elliott offers insights on dog training for hunting tests and they discuss goals for the upcoming hunting season. The conversation wraps up with reflections on friendships and the importance of Christian fellowship. You can learn more about Elliott here: https://www.youtube.com/c/FreelanceDuckHunting
