Blanton Saunders (NC, 1910-1982), Shove Pole

Poplar Branch, North Carolina, circa 1970, carved wood. Length 80 in. From the Personal Hunting Rig of Lt Col Michael Stroff, Emerald Isle, North Caroliina This shove pole was collected directly from Blanton Saunders in the early 1970s. The consignor recalls hunting with Blanton Saunders when Saunders only used a push pole when the other guides utilized small gasoline engines. They shot a fast limit of ducks including wary pintails. Later they caught some nice largemouth bass jigging homemade plugs against empty hunting blinds. This shove pole has served as a reminder of the resourcefulness of the "Old School" nature of Blanton Saunders. Some wood loss on the wider paddle end.
