Book excerpt: The Pte. Mouillee Shooting Club was in an excellent flyway and was located in the western basin of Lake Erie at the mouth of the Huron River near the mouth of the Detroit River. Pte. Mouillee was one of the greatest marshes in the state of Michigan with some of the best duck shooting in the country. It was an extraordinary club, having only ten members at a time. The members were very wealthy and many traveled long distances from several states to hunt at the Club. The Club existed in the golden age of waterfowling when there were few restrictions. They hunted in the spring and in the fall, there were no bag limits, they used live decoy ducks and fed ducks grain. A punt gun was used in the Pte. Mouillee area until they were outlawed. Many of the early members of the Club were live pigeon shooters and met at pigeon matches around the country. Ed Gillman founder of the Club was a state and world champion live pigeon shooter. Nate Quillin was Michigan's most famous early duck decoy makers and duck boat builder. Nate's decoys are famous all over the country and are prized by collectors. Nate made many decoys and boats for the members of the Club. The Club used the best decoys money could buy, Peterson, Dodge, Mason and Nate Quillin's decoys. The book also covers the early days of the State game area and the Michigan Duck Hunter's Tournament. The Club existed from 1875 to 1945 when the State of Michigan bought the marsh for a state game area. Now after over thirty years of research, we are ready to tell the story of what we think is a fascinating Club of a by-gone era. Much of out research was done as we traveled to several states while on vacation. The more we learned about the Club, The more intrigued we became.

Download or read book American Buffalo written by Steven Rinella and published by Random House. This book was released on 2008-12-02 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the host of the Travel Channel’s “The Wild Within.” A hunt for the American buffalo—an adventurous, fascinating examination of an animal that has haunted the American imagination. In 2005, Steven Rinella won a lottery permit to hunt for a wild buffalo, or American bison, in the Alaskan wilderness. Despite the odds—there’s only a 2 percent chance of drawing the permit, and fewer than 20 percent of those hunters are successful—Rinella managed to kill a buffalo on a snow-covered mountainside and then raft the meat back to civilization while being trailed by grizzly bears and suffering from hypothermia. Throughout these adventures, Rinella found himself contemplating his own place among the 14,000 years’ worth of buffalo hunters in North America, as well as the buffalo’s place in the American experience. At the time of the Revolutionary War, North America was home to approximately 40 million buffalo, the largest herd of big mammals on the planet, but by the mid-1890s only a few hundred remained. Now that the buffalo is on the verge of a dramatic ecological recovery across the West, Americans are faced with the challenge of how, and if, we can dare to share our land with a beast that is the embodiment of the American wilderness. American Buffalo is a narrative tale of Rinella’s hunt. But beyond that, it is the story of the many ways in which the buffalo has shaped our national identity. Rinella takes us across the continent in search of the buffalo’s past, present, and future: to the Bering Land Bridge, where scientists search for buffalo bones amid artifacts of the New World’s earliest human inhabitants; to buffalo jumps where Native Americans once ran buffalo over cliffs by the thousands; to the Detroit Carbon works, a “bone charcoal” plant that made fortunes in the late 1800s by turning millions of tons of buffalo bones into bone meal, black dye, and fine china; and even to an abattoir turned fashion mecca in Manhattan’s Meatpacking District, where a depressed buffalo named Black Diamond met his fate after serving as the model for the American nickel. Rinella’s erudition and exuberance, combined with his gift for storytelling, make him the perfect guide for a book that combines outdoor adventure with a quirky blend of facts and observations about history, biology, and the natural world. Both a captivating narrative and a book of environmental and historical significance, American Buffalo tells us as much about ourselves as Americans as it does about the creature who perhaps best of all embodies the American ethos.
