Nice job of "keeping it alive" Bob!

Glad you boys got into them, I don't think Catahoula ever really got much going, or at least my friends there didn't.

We were in Catahoula a couple years ago and didn't have much luck.Lots of hunters there and I suspect that amount of pressure on birds has a big impact.

I had some rio bismuth 1 1/8oz,#4 at 1350fps for the ducks and some Nice Shot 1 1/8oz #4, 1250fps both 2 3/4".Both worked well at knocking ducks down.I was actually very impressed.
Had some heavy shot classic's but didn't use them also some kent tungsten matrix.I didn't use either because the heavy shot was a little slow I felt and the kent was a little hot I felt.Heavy is 1150fps and kent is 1400fps. I was shooting just some 20ga 7/8" #8's for the woodcock which worked fine. |
