Default Our three Tens Redux

We went back out today and had one flock of about 25 set up on his perfectly. I shot one goose with one shot from my NH of 1 3/8 Bismuth 2, Scott shot two with two shots of 1 3/8 Bismuth BB from his EH, and...........Bill shot one goose with 4 shots from his 3 1/2" NID. His last shot dumped a small one at about 70 yards with 1 5/8 of Bismuth 2. Not sure where the rest of his shots went

Conditions were a temp of about 30 degrees with 30 mph gusts out of the West.

There is a special place where errant shot flys. We are not allowed to ever know exactly where this place is but we are all allowed to contribute shot now and again and again and again....... I think there is a conspiracy of shot shell makers involved somehow but you know how difficult it can be to prove a conspiracy theory.

with those "cream them" chokes discussed before maybe its better he took some practice shots before centerring one at a distance.

or he was distracted by the looks of the Parkers compared to the NID

thanks for the pics - love those big guns, looks like another great day - Geese have been thick around here lately with the corn being cut. I have not pulled the trigger on any waterfowl in over 20 years, might need to rethink it.

Come to think of it, do you realize that "those guys" (us) have been hunting ducks and geese together for 35 years this year.
