And we here are such perfect shots.... Yeah some get all ancy pants and have no restraints. I do blame it on the ones in the blind that are "In the Know" and let em do it....

No one claims to be "perfect shots" just taking good shots.
I call in the birds and tell my hunting partners when to open the blind and shoot.
I agree, the "in the know" people should not let it happen.

I was hunting with my brother's son in law in one blind a few hundred yards away from my bro's buddy in another blind. He folded a mallard at what had to be 70-80 yards on a lucky shot. I knew what was going to happen next. He continued to shoot at anything within 100, expecting a repeat. He must have went through a box at least and never touched another feather. But he at least learned his lesson.

 I think this is "hoping to get lucky" is pretty common among rookies who lack a good mentor. They really feel their only chance is to "blast away" as they lack the knowledge and skills and patience to get ducks in killing range.
:yeah:
