I agree with the comment about pheasants however, where many of us hunt, should you wait till the, "...close uns get out a bit..." I fear you will lose sight of them in a hurry. The first 10 days to 2 weeks of woodcock and grouse where I hunt one rarely sees an escaping bird beyond 10-15 yards through poplar, primary growth and tangles of hops. For open country and later season hunts mod and full is a good choice if it patterns well with your ammo. Certainly respect others opinions tho. I'm not an expert shooter and rarely do my inexpensive guns fit well especially in cold weather with extra layers. I think a person needs to feel comfortable and confident with their shotgun more than anything.
