Video: Hunter Shoots Duck, Catches It as It Falls

This duck hunter popped his prize and never let it get dirty.

Every now and then, we get to see a video like this where something rather extraordinary happens. In this case, one of a party of duck hunters makes a nice shot on a puddle duck, but that's just the first good thing that happens.

As the duck falls from a fair height, it becomes obvious it's headed right for the hunter. Now all he has to do is to stretch out his trigger hand and catch it! And, it all happens in the first few seconds of the video.

It's easier said than done, but this quick-thinking fellow was up to the task. Watch as one duck hunting aficionado shows why he should be playing in the outfield in October.

What was better, the catch or his buddy's reaction to it? We all know someone who's done this at one time or another, but these guys at least caught it all on video.

Waterfowl hunting is one of our favorite things to do, despite the fact it comes so often during pheasant, grouse and especially bow seasons.

Finding time to do all the autumn outdoor activities that we want isn't always easy, but find them we will. Have you ever seen someone catch a duck out of the air before?
