Texas waterfowl history doesn't live in regulations or record books--it exists among old timers sitting in kitchens, truck seats, coffee shops and duck blinds. In Part 1 of this 2-part series, historian Rob Sawyer shares how he tracked down the been-there-done-that yesteryear hunters who shaped Texas duck hunting and convinced them to tell their stories before they were lost. Long pauses and occasional moist eyes said more than words. Did dates and limits matter? Who were these men and why do their stories still matter?
