"We had talked about the opportunity to maybe get a trip lined up to come to our place here in Missouri, and I was really excited to host both DU and the Dude Perfect guys this week," said Morris. "Some of the Dude Perfect guys are big hunters. A couple of them have never duck hunted before. So it was really exciting to have those guys experience duck hunting for the first time."
"One of the things I love the most about Ducks Unlimited is their passion to invest and introduce kids to the outdoors," said Beeman. "It's certainly something that's played a big role in my life and John Paul's as well. So the second morning we got to actually have a group of kids come out and hunt with myself, John Paul and the Dude Perfect guys. While the conditions might not have been the best, we did have a lot of fun together, and in the end that's all that matters."
Also on DU TV this week: DU CEO Dale Hall discusses the importance of getting youth involved in the outdoors and conservation. Ducks Unlimited magazine Shotgunning Columnist Phil Bourjaily outlines important steps you should take when bringing a new gun home from the store. And calling champion Buck Gardner explains why and how to bring air from your diaphragm when blowing a duck call.
