Well, I took the little girl and a Parker for a walk and there were a few ducks on one of our ponds, not much liquid water though. Finally a warm day that got up to 23 above. A few ducks stirred around and we jumped 14 or 15 mallards. Got one chance and connected with the right barrel missed with the second. I try not to shoot hens but it has been so long since I had a chance I just went for whatever was there. The good thing is they are finally moving around and I may try to get some shooting over decoys this weekend. Might try the 20 gauge repro. next time. it is a duck slayer for sure.
By the way, I bought that duck strap in high school brand new and I'm 63 now. It cost me $3.50 and you could still read the price until a few years ago.
