The best bird hunting so far was at some public land next to a creek, we had wood ducks zooming through the trees everywhere. This is the first year I have duck hunted and the second year I've goose hunted. I have always shot for pheasant and grouse using lead, no problems.
These ducks are moving pretty fast but the switch to steel is disapointing. I just picked up a full steel choke. I rather miss clean than let them fly away with a couple pellets.
