Before the beards! New photo reveals Duck Dynasty stars prior to their fame... as fresh faced and clean cut young men

By Chelsea White

They were the bearded stars that no one saw coming.

Just over a year ago, few people outside the hunting industry had ever heard of duck call creators the Robertsons, but now the family and their show, is the most popular on television.

Their huge success can be attributed to their unusual ways of dealing with problems and, of course, their glorious long long beards.

Well that's different: In a never-seen-before image posing with Duck Dynasty matriarch Kay Robertson, there is not a whisker between brothers (L-R) Willie, Alan, Jase and Jep

The Robertson men - Si, his brother and founder of the Duck Commander company, Phil, and his two sons Willie and Jase - are renowned for their fully fledged men of the wilderness facial hair.

But just a decade ago, it was a very different story with the ruff and rugged men looking more like a Haynes T-shirt commercial.

In a never-seen-before image taken in 2001 obtained by Life&Style magazine, there is not a whisker between Willie, Alan, who has just signed on to be on the show, Jase and Jep, who has largely been just a guest star until now.

Standing out while blending in: The Robertson men (L-R) Si, Jase, Willie, pictured with wife Korie, and patriarch Phil are known for their love of camouflage and facial hair.

What I want to know is how long is the "itchy time"when growing those beards?

Damn! Will is actually good looking.

Wendy Williams showed this on her hot topic segment, she crushes on the one with the dimples on the far left

I just can't get into Duck Dynasty

I love American Pickers and Pawn Stars and Storage Wars.

I realise they are all scripted but Duck Dynasty is very poorly acted

sorry

I already thought Will and Jase were attractive Don't judge me Will looks better with a bare face. Jase looks good too, but he'd look better with (groomed) facial hair.

a man with a full beard just looks as if hes "given up" trying to look human.....i hate a full beard on a man...for one hing most men look like a grandpa! whats sexy bout that?

the duck guys are pretty handsome under all that scruff....such a shame to hide it.

to each his own....
