You would be surprised at how good you can still get.

If you shoot presentations that mimic your typical wild game for the summer, with any reasonable frequency, all of your standard presentations in the fall become pretty easy. Especially pheasants over grass.

Dropping ducks in the hole? Practice!

Etc. etc. etc.

FWIW, I quit jump shooting mallards for exactly that reason. Too easy, and the first bird up is always a young hen.

If you don’t want to, that’s cool too, and the used gun market needs people that jump from gun to gun without practicing.


Out there doing it best I can.
