My youngest (17), went out Saturday for the opener with two buddies. One each.  Today, two of them went out; They jump shot four.

He hammered that first one straight above his blind. Five pellets in the chest, blew up a wing, one to the throat.  He needs to lead them a little more and just get the head.  :chuckle: :dunno: :chuckle:  His buddie's landed a couple feet from his blind! His landed 'in' his decoy set. After getting the one that was flopping in the water, It took them a moment to find the one in the deeks..  :chuckle:

First year hunting the early hunt, had a great time. My son and I went out   saturday and shot 2, one was a white collared wusky. Sunday and tuesday we limited out with another white collar. I'm muzzleloading next year for elk so I have no conflict with my bowhunting for elk and can concentrate  on goose hunting. Hunting the dusky permit zone during the general season is a pain in the ass, so it's nice to be able to bang any goose that decoys in.

I work part time from home and part time doing whatever else comes up until 2012. Lots of time to hunt and work dogs/shovel poop.
