The first Saturday in February is open to veterans-only hunting in Arkansas, and the veterans tallied eight ducks. The second day was the goose hunt in Missouri, where 12 geese were harvested. Kyle and Brian noted great accommodations (Treasure Island) and company.
The group will sponsor another hunt in 2026.
