Thread: Any tips for a new duck hunter?

dont lift your head after the first shot to admire or see why your missing keep stock cheeked.
dont buy the latest high capacity blaster or ultra high speed load in big shot sizes start reasonable and reliable and go on from there.[read remington 870 and game bore 2 3/4 in 3,s or 4s on a pond]
start with less choke than half with steel even skeet and work up if needed and patterning warrants it.
dont get to many heads up alert duck decoys it makes ducks suspicious.
get movement in your spread if the wind dont oblige.
when shooting ducks very few people miss by having to much lead.
