Re: very first refuge duck hunt at san J
Go beat brush or buy a pond.
The above statements are like saying, " when I go shopping at the mall people should be patient and wait for a parking spot to open up close to the entrance of sears in stead of parking 50 yards away. Totally rediculous, your on a refuge! Some guys only hunt once or twice a year so for guys to say don't pass shoot at a refuge is selfish.
I'm all about working ducks, i get them in real close at my pond it's awesome.
It's okay to agree or disagree, some people think 40-50 yards is sky busting I on the other hand do not, sky busting to me is shooting at birds you won't hit. People miss birds at 15 yards so because u missed did you ruin the chance for the hunters on the next blind? It is what it is.
Bottom line is if you guys have a problem with the refuges don't hunt them.... Nobody makes you hunt a refuge you guys can beat brush find a pond like a lot of guys on this forum have done because they are like my self and want to work birds. If you get lucky enough to draw a number at a refuge don't expect to have 100 birds come drop in on you, go and have a good time work the birds hopfully they drop in if not hit them at distance
