Stay tuned—more to come. Follow @ramseyrussellgetducks for more worldwide duck hunting adventures. #oldschool #puntgun #puntgunning #history #getducks #itsduckseasonsom

We opened up the Kentucky Afield Archives and found an old gem: a segment about the "punt gun", an extremely large shotgun used in the 19th and early 20th centuries for shooting large numbers of waterfowl. Give it a watch to learn more about this interesting piece of history, and a bit about why regulations are important! #throwback | Kentucky Afield
