I could understand two with two as falling into the grey area, but two with three, means you either missed the second shot or took a risky out of range shot that would probably wound the duck, and still claim the title. The third shot isn't always risky but most of the time we all know that as responsible sportsmen we shouldn't take it most of the time.

You are painting a pretty broad stroke there. I can pull the triggle 3 times in like a second so often times the third shot is well within acceptable range. If you are shooting at the same bird three times yeah often times that third shot is a waste and should not be taken.

Watching hunting shows or reading articles I think double in my definition is the standard. For example in a dove hunting article they talked about in some cases you should not attempt to shoot a "double" on dove because there would be a good chance you would lose one of the birds if you don't keep your eye on where the first one went down. Also when shooting skeet...what is it called when they pull two clays at once...double. In skeet you are actually required to shoot two shots...in fact if you shoot one shot and both break there is a rule (that I'm not super familar with) where you either have to reshoot them the correct way or one is a miss...can't remember but bottom line you are not suppost to shoot two clays with one shot. I've done it once and it happened to be when I was shooting with a good friend who has been in lots of skeet tourneys and he told me about the rule...although I was so pumped I didnt listen.

Bottom line call it what you want and I'll keep calling it by the standard more recognized term.

I was just asking the question and defining my stance on the answer I chose to support, now if you want to reduce your standards to multiple singles equals a double or a triple then that is your deal. Now to the mention of hunting shows and hunting articles, most of them are the equivalant of watching entertainment tonight for getting correct answers on politics and financial issues, most of those guys on the hunting shows and a majority of the writers are just shamwow bubbas in camo. That is their job to sell sponsors products and products that result in doubles or triples means more potential sales, so it makes sense that the definition would be easier to attain. I guess we have a true double two birds one shot, and a modern day politcally correct liberal double of two birds regardless of shots

I am constantly amazed at the number of idiots out there.

C'mon guys, wake up. Everybody knows that double is two birds kilt out of a volley of 2 shots.

---

So two singles killed in less than say a minute would constitute a double? Is the time frame accurate? I never said a double was skill, it was just two birds with one shot.

2 flying birds brought down, DEAD with ONE SHOT is a double............2 birds with 2 shots are 2 singles.

2 birds killed with a 2 shot volley upon a covey rise, finishing ducks or a incoming group of doves is a double.

Sorry pal, but you are dead wrong no matter how many geezers you've hunted with.

I am right and everyone else is WRONG!!!
That is kind of an arrogant attitude.
Now I see why you are a 1 Year Wonder.


In my duck blind, a double is 2 shots - 2 downed birds. Triple = 3 shots, 3 downed birds.
2 birds - 1 shot is simply called "2 birds with one shot".

I can get 7 or 8 with one 2 3/4", #6 lead if I wait until they all gether up around the corn pile. What do you call that?

Exactly right! Now tell that to CrazyHorse and the other idiots that think a double is 2 birds with one shot

Maybe you boys need to go back and re-read my posts.

Simply because they can't or won't learn how to shoot, it is easier to try and change the meaning of the term. JMO.
