King I agree with your lament against slobs. People are so stupid in trying to hit birds at stupid ranges. Sky busting screws everybody. Birds get so scared they wont finish. Cripples are lost. Even birds working one blind will be shit at by another. If hunters would just limit themselves to no shot outside 25 yards their success rate would go up four times or more.

If you took a slob hunter to a Sporting Clays range and charged him two buck a shot at birds 45-60 yards away hed quickly stop but the same idiot will shoot three shells at that same target if its a duck. And do it again and again. And clay targets are much less evasive than a duck.

If you cant recover a bird there is no reason to shoot it.
