Depends..is it private? you can hunt it everyday if you only shoot at 1,2,3's.....if you shoot at big flocks or while big flocks are circling..then you will blow it out.....when big flocks are decoying or flying around, step out of the blind and walk around...they will see you and fly away...but without getting conditioned to the boom of a gun..they will return later hoefully in small groups
