I took Dalton and my Dad on a dove hunt.
My dad had not shot doves in over 25 years. Saturday morning he shot 27 times (1 box and two out of the second box) and killed his limit of 15...very impressive. That afternoon the birds were wiser and the wind was blowing. He finished off that second box, 23 shots and killed two.
Dalton took 89 shots Saturday morning to get his limit. It was sad. That afternoon he shot another two boxes and killed 4. He blamed it on his new gun
I was the same ol terrible shot that I usually am. I shot 4 shells short of 2 boxes Saturday morning and killed 15 birds. That afternoon I proved the old saying, "It aint the arrow, it's the Indian". I shot four different guns..Bennelli, Winchester, Remington, and Mossberg. I shot almost a box of shells and killed 5.
All in all, we had 12 hunters Saturday morning and killed 168 birds. That afternoon hunt we had 5 hunters and killed 39.
My dad, my son, and myself
The bounty
