I wasn't talking about from a trap house. I was talking from a goose tower about 50' off of the ground from behind you.

This is one of my favorite stations.  The one that is a good challenge is a high crossing shot at .  Going from about 9 to 2 when your at the 6 o'clock position.  Followed by a rabbit with a tight shooting window.
Cut em!
It's not the shells!  It's the shooter!

I would have no problem with a 15 shell limit on public ground at least the skybusters go home early.  I try and stay away from places that have easy access.  There is so much public duck hunting out here that there is good duck hunting without having to deal with the crowds.

After the first shot the rest are just noise.

The Kenmore range has a 65' tower on position #2 of thier 5-stand course.  Pretty easy shot actually once you get used to it.  It’s the fast crossing shots that plague me; the 3, 7 & 11 at Kenmore.  And yep, that rabbit (#8) from the closest stand.  A true pair of any of these is a real challenge.

I usually have no trouble with Kenmore's tower. I have had my ass handed to me multiple times at Tacoma sportsmen's club's tower. I think it sails a lot further than Kenmore's or something. Dunno. The new course at SST had a temporary one held up by a fully extended Lull forklift. Not sure if they have the permanent one in yet.
