While pheasant hunting in South Dakota, we also hit a few pot holes looking for ducks. I shot a widgeon, and this nice green winged teal with my 10 ga. Charles Daly.

Re: Charles Daly
You certainly weren’t undergunned for that Teal! Beautiful girl there. I think Teal are my favorite duck to eat.

Re: Charles Daly
Thanks Jeff. Green-wing Teal are the best to eat in my opinion. Much better than Cinnamon Teal. No Blue-wings here in CA. I don't get any Canvasbacks either.

Re: Charles Daly
I was using 2 7/8" RST #5 shot. To be honest, we didn't even know what was on the water. It was a "dug-out" pot hole with high banks so we just surrounded it and moved in. They flushed before we even saw the water, but it was fun knocking one down.SPE33 wrote:That’s a great way to spend some time off.What kind of shells were you using in that hammer gun Jeff?
Shoot vintage firearms, relax, and have fun.
