Default RE: SHOOTING BIRDS AT 30+YRDS!!

I'm not sure what angle this post took , but I have to say that what I read makes me hang my head [&o]

What ever happened to the CALL that hunters use in this sport. SPend some more time practicing with the call and shoot the gobbler clean at 30-40 yards not a guessing 60-70 yards [:@]

Not one person answered this post , as it was asked.

Pattern your Shotgun with a number of Loads and find the one load that shoots the best. When practicing use 30 yards , the range that is the most common for hunters that call the bird in and take. Then try 40 yards and see if it will handle a proper load to Cleanly kill the bird. Forget about the 60-70 yard shots.

I have a 20 gauge that will cleanly kill at 50-60 yards but will not take that shot...BT
