If I haven’t hit my limit I will not hesitate to shoot a bird on the water. I don’t hunt some boomer duck club. I hunt public for meat on the table. It’s fun and I enjoy it even in the cold miserable days when much isn’t flying, but the sportsmanship BS stops when it comes to getting table fare. Agree

Battue and I don't agree on much of anything. All the same on shooting the birds in the air though. Their are times when you need to dispatch a cripple on the water. That's when you find out they are easier to kill when in the air. A retriever ensures your meat on the table. Nope don't have the assets to be a duck club guy. To each his own..mb

Get them however legal if you want. To me if you land them you have done a great job of decoying. A lot of people would be surprised at how often a duck shot at on the water will be missed.

Last weekend again proved how hard it is to outright kill a duck on the water. Once they're wounded, they either dive down or head into the reeds, never to be seen again. Waste of shells.
It takes a village to raise an idiot.
