The best for me is seeing guys hit long shots from birds we miss in our spread.  I just like to see the ducks drop from high, takes skill for long shots.




Yuh might wanta change your screename to skybuster then  :rolleyes:

Nope sorry not a westsider.   :IBCOOL:

I'll rephrase, I don't sky bust, but I do take longer shots then most.  I like to see 30-40 yard tough shots being made not the 60-80 yards, like buzz bombing teal at the outside of the spread dropping at 50 mph, or the bufflehead F18's comin in hot outside the dekes and dropping the one you picked.

It works out for me.   :IBCOOL:

That's why it's called hunting and not killing.

My favorite part of waterfowl hunting is seeing the wonder and amazement in my 7 year-old son's eyes when we hear those first whistling wings in the early light as the ducks come tumbling into the pond. That time with my boy is priceless.

Getting all settled into the blind as shooting light approaches and looking at my lab and seeing her lock her sights too the sky above and and hearing those whistling wings sweep over head and seeing big greenheads cup and commit. Don't how many times seeing my lab lock to the sky has saved me from getting busted!!

Watching my brother in law flail around the boat when a duck swoops right over us.  :chuckle:
People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.
