I had a good morning jump shooting ducks today.

Nice !
|
The walking stick is for balancing in the mud on the retrieve.
|
Way to go!
|
Nice going Jeff,
Now why don’t you show us really how long those barrels are:) Stan |
Jeff, it looks like you have jump shooting down to a science. No lugging decoys or messing with blinds…and great exercise, too.:bowdown:
|
What are the specs on your Parker and the loads you were using. It looks like some Tungsten Matrix hulls in the picture.

That is my go to duck gun. I would have a tough time guessing how many ducks that gun has taken over the years. It is a 1 1/2 frame 12 with 30 " barrels. It is the standard Mod and full chokes. I was using #5 bismuth and # 2 tungsten matrix.
It is a lot of exercise walking miles in chest waders since I am also the dog! |
I used to love jump shooting ducks along the creek that ran behind my house in my youth. I would hunt pheasants in the fields along the creek and every 50 yards or so sneak out to the edge of the creek and jump the ducks. I did very well with this method.

That worked well for me out here in N. Calif. where one could drive 5 miles north of
U.C. Davis and find the roads adjacent to the return ditches. In a north wind all you'd do is walk the south side and the resting ducks would bust up and turn right overhead. In a couple hours of walking you could get 3-4 mallards and a few pheasants walking the fence rows. Now, the farmers close the roads and you'll get in hot water if you trespass. |
