Sportsmen's warehouse had a print out of duck silhouettes in flight. The silhouette had the distance the duck were.

Does anyone know where I can get one to print out in bulk to place under the windshields of vehicles in the parking lot where I've been hunting?

I shoot 3 1/2 so I can honestly say that its ok for me to skybust 80 yards is a perfectly acceptable range if you are shooting 3 1/2 shells.

There needs to be a push for 1 box of shells per person on WMA or public lands.

True. I've hunted Catahoula lake a lot and when the birds won't come down they believe firmly in skyblasting. They are pretty good at it too. 1 shot 1 bird every shot and these birds are always 100+ yards high. Come to find out a lot of them use 10 gauges with T shot. As for the birds it doesn't make them move off the lake but then again there are millions of birds there.

Marksmen? You think they use to hunt ducks with all the fancy gadgets and let them land in their face?

Lol my first duck hunt consisted of walking down a levee and shooting birds as they jump up... so who is hunting more... the one that sits/hides/waits or the one that is pursuing game and taking opportunities... just a question.. I mainly hunt over a spread now to lol but that is more of a heritage for me if you will

Jumping birds is what guys that don't know how to duck hunt do....it takes very little hunting skill...just have to be sneaky. I think we have all done it in our lives but once you know how to duck hunt it does not seem too sportsman like to me.

Nothing wrong with jumping ducks, but its more so shooting than hunting.

You are either a shooter or a hunter . And for you shooters just get your bud to throw up some clay birds. A whole cheaper

Can't eat clay pigeons. I'm guilty of walking up birds but I only do it on small creeks

Sort of a off comment since we've never made a hunt together. What's the deal?
