Ghosthunter I think that your situation was much different then what I described and besides I was taught to respect my elders, I probably would have offered to help with your decoys to be honest.

No problem. Thanks

I might add I never fired a shot because I refuse to sky bust.
The weather cleared and the guys over my right shoulder were better callers.
I a good day with a buddy my son showed up too. And got to watch the dogs find several cripples deads.
Which is a product of guys blasting at ducks way too high.

my seven month old pup has found three cripples so far this year, I finish them off and add them to my haul for the day. Makes me feel good about finding them.

Always hesitant to add cripples to my bag limit.  Possible stems from the lead days, but I have seen to many that develop infections.

About now, if you run a good dog at this particular location, they may locate several limits worth of birds.
Cut em!
It's not the shells!  It's the shooter!

If they are alive and I finish them I will count them.

If they are cold dead.
I dump them. No telling how long they have been there.
Real waste, caused by people shooting too high.
