    On ha Toby.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!

    Yup, I nailed both those greys, first ones to hit the deck, dad missed both his shots! Think he got confused cause about 30 ducks jumped up about 10m away from us haha

    Loving the Y banger, pulled off some bloody good shots. Was a fun 30min or so if that

    Not a bad season considering I done nothing for it and wasn't even planning on shooting much

    Hopefully you all decided to spend some time out in the field rather than on here. How'd you go this weekend?

    I took my 5 year old daughter out for her first duck hunt. She loved it even though we sat through thunderstorms without a maimai. We sat on a small pond that was in an area close to where a few ducks were feeding. I was hoping they'd come by in the morning, thankfully they did
