Got out Monday and they were flying, a lot really high and the rest only in groups of 3s and 4s.Managed 4, shot over a box of shells.($$$$ on those 3in mags they tore my arm up! Could the 3rd picture be a cinny? Also some how big foot showed up, my wife snuck that in. She's about as funny as a pay toilet in a diarrhea ward.

are you taking any meds? That's a lot of bruising.

No meds and no diabetic. Taking the old lady to the doc tomorrow, I'll see if I can get it looked at. Thanks for the thoughts guys.

Just a migratory hematoma. You should be shooting a 20 gauge with 2 3/4" 6s. And don't waste bullets on spoonies.

You need to trim your toenails first, that way you won't trip and shoot from your hip.

I had something that looked like that about 30 years ago but it was from an IV that had come loose on me while in the ER. It's bad when the ER Dr's and nurses know you on a first name basis ...LOL. I am starting to learn now in my older years to let the young bucks do the foolish challenges...however not much I can do about the recurring kidney stones and other issues that come with age. Last time I got kidney stones a few months ago the dr came in and I told her not to worry it was just a kidney stone. She asked if I wanted them to run a cat scan to be sure. Told her no need, after you've had them as many times as I have you know what they are. Told her just look up my records, give me the same treatment you always give me, put on the oxygen mask and I'll see you in 2-3 hours when I wake up. She laughed and said, ok you're the doctor here. She came back and said oh I see why you said that, ok yeah you know the routine, I'll come back and discharge you when you wake up. Honestly I have lost track of the number of times I have been to the er and the number of times I've had kidney stones. The last time I had them was hilarious because the wife was just getting in the mood and we had gone to the bedroom when they hit me, she looked at me and busted out laughing saying that was the dangdest excuse she had ever heard of to not get lucky....

Why are you shooting mags.? a full choke and a high vel shell in 2 or 3 shot will get just as many birds as a mag. If you are shooting well.

I was shooting mags because I had them, brought the wrong shells. Normally I shoot 2 3/4 in a 3 shot. I do need to get a full choke, but I've only been hunting 2 years since I took a 25 year lay off. Geese guys celebrate in my fun and success, don't be so critical. Hey I had a great time and am going again tomorrow. Might take the old 16 gauge we will see.(and ya my toenails need trimming but so does the hair on my ***:mrgreen:

For ducks over decoys, 4s are better than 3s. Also, the last thing you need is a full choke. Don't go any tighter than IC. Trust me, you'll kill more ducks, cripple less and save money.
