The other thread about the luckiest shot you’ve had got me to think what’s your worst I can’t believe I missed that shot story?
Couple that come to mind buddy and I were duck hunting Stillhouse lake. Water was super high the walk-in area was flooded we had 1 small tree we hid behind one on each side. Wind was blowing a good 30mph. I had a widgeon coming in low maybe 3ft of the water and he was really fighting the wind watched him come from long ways away and looked like slow motion. He was coming to my side and I buddy said you got him? I said yeah I’m bout to lay the wood to this mfer. He came right in for a chip shot and I emptied my gun and didn’t even knock a feather out. My buddy was laughing so hard he couldn’t even shoot.
Another time was duck hunting Ft Hood and was glassing some ponds and found about a dozen canvasbacks sitting on it. But sneaking up on it was gonna be tough. I parked a good ways away and got on the low side and started sneaking up on them. The gravel road between us was the last thing I needed to cover to get a shot so I belly crawled across the road and peaked over and they were right up against the bank I needed. I raised up and unloaded and killed a hen. I was ****** at myself all that work and shot the wrong one.
All the elite hunters on here I hope I’m
