I am a relatively new hunter - this is my third season - and have spent the past two years pass shooting on Boundary Bay. Like Saturday, it was a quiet morning out there and I didn't have a shot in the first hour this am. Just before 9, I saw a tight flying pair of ducks coming straight at me. I held still until they were in range and then put the barrel on the nose of the lead bird and puller the trigger. My eyes followed it's drop a bit so I looked up to see if I could get a shot at the second bird, only to see it dropping too! 1st shot of the day and two birds down - I will remember this day for a while. Pretty excited about my first double. Sat am was quiet too, but I came home with a duck then too.

I would like to learn more about this great past time, so if there is an experienced hunter out there that wouldn't mind showing a newbie the ropes, just let me know......
