Here’s a pixelated screen grab off the iPhone video I took this morning.
Red circle is the bird beginning to fan out and strut for me.
Blue line is a log I walked out after the fact, which happened to be right at 30 steps. I’m 6’ for reference. The bird was right at 35 steps in this picture.
Now my question is, how do y’all determine when to shoot?
20 gauge using TSS #9’s for reference.
No decoys or blinds, just striking up a bird, sitting down and waiting.
