The Fowl Life
Chad's still on location at Premier Prairie in Kansas with Randy Young and Lynn McDonald when the conversation turns to someone who meant a great deal to all of them. John Lamonico passed away at 95. Safari Club International world records. Hunted in nearly 40 countries. Black and blue from his knuckles to his navel at 91 from trying to shoot 1000 doves. Rigged to the side of a cliff at 90 just to make the climb. Still jumping in and out of airboats at 92 like it was nothing. But none of that is really what the heart of this episode is about. It's about the man in the blind. The patience he had. The way he'd watch a flock and call exactly where they'd go. The way he made every person around him feel like they were the best hunter he'd ever been with. The way he showed up for photo shoots at 90, held poses as long as you needed, and never once made it about himself. The duck blind is the great equalizer. The place where business gets done on a handshake, friendships get built, and the best people in your life somehow find their way to you. Rest in peace, John Lamonico. He's up there in the duck blind with the best of them.
