It would be hard for me to choose because each and every animal I take is a trophy to me. I would have to say that in preference it would be puddlers over divers only because of table fare. Now some cans and bluebills are good but in overall I will take puddlers over divers based on cuisine. They are all a blast to hunt and the dog seems not to notice a difference or show a preference to one or another and a good dog makes the hunt so I like them all. My preference would have to go with whatever the dog handled well that day and sometimes all.
