Greg McCauley I'm 39 years old, married with 2 great children (Taylor and Ian). My daughter is 8 and my son is 4. We also have a female black lab named Abby that's a duck fetching machine… I was introduced to duck hunting at the ripe old age of 4 by my father… He is a life long duck addict and passed it on to me. I've now passed that passion on to my daughter and she takes it very seriously… At 7 years old, she hunted with me many times last year and not once did I have to wake her at 3am. She was up and ready to go. This will be my son's first year to experience the passion and thrill, albeit at a much later time in the morning.I grew up and still live 10 miles from the IL River near the town of Hennepin, IL. At one time it is said that 60% of all MS Flyway ducks came through the valley here… Hennepin was named as one of the 4 great water fowling towns by DU a few years ago. In my teens I guided at several of the clubs in the area as a way to hunt everyday possible… Today I still manage to hunt 60-80 days per season only now it's from the Dakotas to the mid south and from NE to IL… Some people have said my "hobby" is a little time consuming to which I've informed them it's NOT a hobby, it's a way of life. About 10 years ago I began entering local meat duck calling contests.. It was fun and a great experience… Then I discovered sanctioned "Main Street" style duck calling contests and knew that was what I wanted to do.. My goal was to qualify for the World Duck Championship just one year… Little did I know that one time would never be enough.. My 1st year of competitive calling was in 2003 and towards the end of the summer I was beginning to make it to the 3rd round.. In 2004 I started making it to more 3rd rounds and I finally got my first sanctioned victory by winning the Ohio Regional Duck Calling contest… I had made it to the Worlds… Now the quest continues.
