What I learned this year.
I think like ammo companies that come up with new rounds just because there is a hole in the market to fill, the amount of shot shells on the market right now is crazy and we all sometimes fall victim to good marketing.
I used to think nothing was better than Black Cloud. #2s for big ducks, BB for geese. Those and Remington Nitros were all we shot. Made a trip to Alberta this year and shot box after box of Winchester Super X. I always thought those were junk prior to the trip. Completely changed my mind. After the trip, I don't think it matters. Sure some pattern better then others.
Pattern your gun. Practice shooting more. Run a choke that matches your ability/range and decoy the birds. Get em close. Spend more time on the hide, decoy set and calling.
Sorry if I offend but I gotta add this.
Canadians are people.
Canadas are geese.
