Summary
A duck-hunting tale built around the joke that the best shooting is always said to have happened “day before yesterday,” when the birds were supposedly plentiful and the hunters are always a little too late. The narrator moves through calls, long drives, club visits, and inflated reports from hunting grounds, only to find empty promises, crowded blinds, and disputes over who shot which ducks. The story satirizes duck hunters’ hopes, travel, and claim-jumping at the clubs.
