Shaun_300 Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 Re: First Duck Mine was a hooded merganser as well. Shot him off the shore at my grandma's with my Remington single shot 20ga when I was 10 or so. It was a far shot too, took a couple blasts to kill it. I was pumped though!

[/ QUOTE ] i just remembered that when i was about 7 or 8 my cousin and i were out at the pond at my grandpa's ranch. well i had my little red rider bb gun and there was a coot in the weeds about 30-40 yards away. well corey told me to shoot it and of course i said ok thinking there was no way. to make a long story short i shot it right in the head and killed it. i felt soo guilty after that that i told my dad and he gave me a talkin to and took my bbgun away for a week. but i guess my first "duck" was a coot and my first LEGAL duck was the pintail drake.

ilhnter Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 Re: First Duck My first duck was a hen mallard. This was my first year duck hunting and I absolutely love it. It was a cold windy morning and we had ducks trying to land in our decoys while we were still throwing them out. We settled in and were watching two mallards to our right and i just happened to look back my left and there were 8 mallards coming into the decoys, my buddy and i shot 3 times a piece and we each killed one out of the group and mine was a hen mallard. All three of us limited out on mallards that day, 4 apiece. I'm hooked for life now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
