Christmas gifts for the waterfowl and upland game hunter in your family Dallas John NORTH COUNTY liththeChrist-'mas liththeChrist-'mas holidays just around the corner, most of us are busy looking for that special gift for that special someone in our life. In last week's column, I shared several gift-giving ideas that might help when that special spe-cial individual you are buying for is a hunter. I covered items or gifts that would be especially nice for the hunter who enjoys big game hunting. Last week's suggested gift ideas ranged from a new hunting hunt-ing rifle to bow and archery equipment; from a muzzle-loader muzzle-loader to spotting scopes and optics; from hunting boots to clothing and much more. What I failed to mention and would be another excellent gift is a small-game permit or perhaps a combination license. In this week's column, I'd like to cover or suggest gifts that any waterfowl or upland game hunter would be more than happy to receive. As those gifts I mentioned in my previous article, the following gift-giving suggestions sugges-tions are to help you as the gift giver and perhaps someone who knows very little or even nothing about hunting get an idea as to what your special hunter might need or like this season. Because there are many gift options out there, you, as the gift giver, should first get to know a little about your hunter. This can be done by simply listening to and watching that person. Educating yourself as to what that special someone needs or wants will make your task at hand much easier. Let's begin with gifts for the waterfowl hunter. Gift ideas will appear in bold. Gifts for the waterfowl hunter hunt-er can range from the more expensive ex-pensive gifts such as a new duck boat or perhaps a new shotgun to something less expensive like several boxes of shotgun shells, a bird call; waterfowler's rucksack or hunting bags; blind heater and or waterfowl videos. If your budget is somewhere in between, you might want to Hoops Continued from Page 6 they go out and play hard, then I'll be pleased. I want effort and consistency." Timpanogos moved to 9-0 on the season by coming out victorious in its first two games of the tournament. They beat South Torrance (Calif.), 66-55, on Monday, and Huntington Beach (Calif.), 59-54, on Tuesday. Tues-day. The Orem Tigers also won their opening game on Monday, overcoming Palo Verde (Ariz.), 45-36. Mountain View fell in a pair uofl vyw The latest in BYU Sports online wwww.heraldextra.com look at one of several other options. op-tions. This to include duck and goose blinds; decoys; andor waders and hunting attire. Although purchasing gifts such as shells and hunting attire might seem simple enough, the gift giver should be aware that there are several types of shotgun shot-gun shells. Knowing what that special person is going to be hunting is a must when talking with your retailer. Most shotgun shells can be purchased for around $5 to $10 per box. Obviously, when it comes to selecting hunting attire, you can simply be reassured reas-sured by knowing his or her size. A gift giver purchasing waterfowl wa-terfowl attire such as a good warm coat and or pants can expect ex-pect to pay anywhere from $50 (each) to $300 or $400. Remember Remem-ber that waterfowlers are most successful when the weather is at is worst. Spending a little more money might not hurt and will keep you hunter somewhat comfortable comfort-able and more protected while in the field. A gift giver looking to purchase pur-chase a respectable pair of chest or waist -high waders can expect ex-pect to pay anywhere from $80 to $200. Hip boots or waders run around $50 to $100. When looking for a layout or laydown blind for that duck or goose hunter, you can expect to pay anywhere between $100 and $300. A respectable boat blind will run around $200 to $400. There are a wide variety of duck and goose decoys, and again, depending on how much you have to spend, these can range from $20 to $100 each for the duck decoys and $50 to $200 each for a goose decoy. While I hesitate to say this and at the risk of sounding unappreciative you should never make a major purchase without first being reassured that it is in fact the desired item, especially when purchasing something as critical as a boat. While it may not prove that critical in selecting a new shotgun for that first -time waterfowl wa-terfowl hunter, an avid or more experienced waterfowl hunter will be much more critical of what he or she will shot. The quality and-cost of these guns of games on Monday and Tuesday. Tues-day. The Bruins lost to Good Counsel (Md.), 5645, and Forest Park (Va.), 61-54. The results of Wednesday's games were not available by press time. Darger knows that her squad has played very well during the opening stretch, going undefeated, but she said the T'Wolves still have challenges to overcome. "Whenver that first loss comes, it will be a huge test," Darger said. "We hope it doesn't come for a long time. I feel like they've learned a lot from game to game and they've done a great can easily range from $500 to $2,000. In my opinion, when purchasing purchas-ing a shotgun for that first -time hunter, I'd look to spend somewhere some-where in the neighborhood of $250 to $500. If this is still more money then you had planned to spend, try looking for a used shotgun. There are several retailers re-tailers in the valley who specialize special-ize in used equipment. A reminder for the non-hunting gift giver would be that shotguns also come in a variety of calibers from as small as a .4 10 and 20-gauge to the bigger 12 andor the 10-gauge shotguns. shot-guns. Before purchasing a shotgun, shot-gun, you must know what that special person plans to hunt and which gun would best accommodate accom-modate his or her situation. Now that I've covered gifts for the waterfowl hunter, lets move on to several gift options for the upland game hunter. Because 1 don't possibly have the space in this article to go into great detail with each and every gift idea, let me just say that upland game and waterfowl water-fowl weapons are much the same. That's to say that "the weapon weap-on of choice" will be a shotgun and not a centerfire rifle. Given this fact, you can rest assured that the above mentioned shotgun shot-gun calibers can apply and are available for upland game hunters. hunt-ers. Again, what that special person in your life chooses to hunt will determine your caliber of gift. Dressing the gift receiver will be somewhat the same for both waterfowlers and upland game hunters, although you probably don't need to purchase the waders. wad-ers. Most upland game hunters need to stay warm much like there counterparts, but prefer a good insulated and waterproof hunting boot. A good comfortable comfort-able boot can be purchased for $50 to $150. While style and decor does differ, an upland logo or SIG will make the changeover from . that waterfowler to a drylander quite simple when purchasing that hunting hat, vest, coat and or pants. ft Dallas John can be reached at 344-2972 or at djohn&heraldextra.com. job of not settling.
