Does anybody shoot during the spring and summer to hone in their skills? I know I will be this summer.

I shoot a few nights a week and every weekend with real birds, I don't think I need to hone my skills though because I have yet to miss a single bird out of a zinger yet :1:

That is something I am going to have to do this year as I miised more than I liked last season. But the one time really took the cake....
I found a hot field full of ducks and geese but could not find anyone to come with me so I went alone ( just me and the dog). The first flock of geese came in, shot 3 times and never got a thing:sad1: . A second flock of geese came in, emptied the gun and got 1:sad1: . A huge flock of mallards came in next, yep you guessed it, not nada :angry:
I ended up going home with 3 birds ( 2 geese and a mallard) for the night but I shot off a box of shells, I swear I could hear the dog laughing at me in the field. The next day I was cleaning the gun and took out the choke to oil it up and noticed instead of having my regular one in there I had a super extra full turkey choke :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :emmbarassed:

Sounds like an expensive outing DD..:boxing:
Practice does help a lot, I have shot a lot the last two seasons at Galt Sportsmans. It has helped me a lot in the field.

This just improves your shooting too much DD.
You will get up early and get set up and then only get to fire 6 shots a day before you limit out. What fun is that, come out hunting with me, we will only get a couple birds per day but we will be blasting all morning. Bring lots of shells.
Hows that sound :stupid:
:sorry:
