Press Room

Netherlands is green. About half the size of South Carolina, its citizens are among Europe’s most liberal, a phenomenon that local hunters call “green.” Its park-like landscape is as one guest described, “so emerald green it burns your retinas.” The countryside is as idyllic as a 1970s Disney movie replete with narrow, cobblestone streets, laser-straight rows of tulips that stretch to the horizon, lazily churning, centuries-old windmills, skillfully manicured topiaries, politely smiling, mostly blonde bicyclists, tidy wood-shingled farmhouses back dropped by aromatic dairy farms and lush crops of hay, corn, and sugar beets. There’s water everywhere. Seemingly millions of miles of drainage channels effectively displace water with Dutch efficiency to myriad larger canals and immense reservoirs retained by the country’s iconic dikes, the country’s highest topographical points that loom on every horizon.  Copious water, forage grass and agriculture: it’s a waterfowl utopia, location of the world’s newest goose hunts.   There’s no goose-hunting season either. But there’s goose hunting!

Ramsey Russell gets ducks. The owner of GetDucks.com isn’t bragging. He just really loves his job.  You probably won’t find a more humble and genuine guy in all your duck hunting travels.  He would give you the last shell in his pocket and let you claim the triple you didn’t really kill–unless they’re banded, of course.  You’d be that generous, too, if you hunted 222 days in a  recent 13-month span.

The Netherlands’ lush agricultural areas provide a buffet for growing populations of geese. Now crop depredation and safety concerns have opened areas to regulated management, allowing Netherlands goose hunting in a unique setting with strong odds of collecting sought-after species like barnacle geese.

And so it was that the First Dallas Safari Club (DSC) Duck Hunt took place in January 2015.  Hard work and scouting by J.J.

An old high school buddy wanted to meet for lunch and discuss a short story for Magnolia Chapter of SCI.  He offered to buy so the invitation was quickly accepted. As we put away plutonium-enhanced hot wings, he explained wanting the story of GetDucks.com as it relates to my own personal history, which he remembered well.

When asked the origins of the brand name, I’ve always quipped, “Because life’s short, get ducks.” Here’s why.
