I was just there to set up the decoys and make vague duck sounds. It took almost a box of shells but she managed a few with her 28ga #6 shot.

A little of both, I just hope she likes it and continues to go with me. Im finding out more and more that the kids are my best resource for long term "hunting buddies".

Her first duck last year, same gauge and shot size on the same pond but with a H&R Single shot.


I appreciate the comments
