    Skybusters: Magic Does Not Apply to Shotgun Physics

    Skybusting, or the art of trying to magically propel steel shot 100 yards into the air at a passing duck, is a sure-fire way to ruin your own chances, and everyone else’s chances, at actually killing a duck.

    I'm not 100% on what it is, but this much I know: with that spotted bill it ain't purebred mottled.

    I’m with Rubberhead and Mudeagle.

    Also really intrigued that a mottled showed up in St. George.
    Be proactive about improving public waterfowl habitat in South Carolina. It's not going to happen by itself, and our help is needed. We have the potential to winter thousands of waterfowl on public grounds if we fight for it.

    Just out of curiosity, how do you know he is spot on with these? Has he rendered past opinions of hybrids that you were able to verify? Is he able to track down the parents of these hybrids and have them claim responsibility?

    Clearly, some folks have more knowledge about these things, but unless you do some lab work, are you ever really sure?
    Them that don't know him won't like him, and them that do sometimes won't know how to take him

    He ain't wrong, he's just different, and his pride won't let him do things to make you think he's right

    Zip it boozer. Bogster knew about hybrids 10 years before the rest of us!
    Seeing these soulless vanilla ice lookin Yankees on a bassboat is worse than watching a woman get her implants taken out. It's just wrong. Get back in your Lund and go back to infisherman.

    You’re probably correct.
