1st Ducks
My 10 year old son shot his 1st ducks today. A flight of 7 greenwing teal came over and he dropped the lead drake. Later, after a couple of practice shots, he crushed a drake woodduck that banked in front of the blind. Looks like we'll be headed to the taxidermist. What a great day!

Re: 1st Ducks
Nice job
Glad to see you got a few. Yesterday morning I wish I would have had the shotgun with me in the deer stand. The ducks were everywhere and flying low....just along the treeline. All I could do is watch
I did send a big bobcat packing though
