People called Currituck County a sportsman's paradise back when the skies clouded over with ducks and the waters teemed with fish. The game is more elusive these days and the hunting methods more sophisticated, but native Travis Morris shows through these stories that the thrill of it all is just as intense. From a four-year-old boy on his first hunt with his grandfather to an eighty-two-year-old woman who still loves to shoot her supper, Morris highlights both the heart and humor of the sportsman. There's a three-strand cord that will forever bind Currituck gunners: passion for the hunt, love of the outdoors and respect for the dangers of open, shallow waters.
