Appreciate it friend! They do not bother me. All it takes is 10 minutes and at minimal a milk jug to walk 25 steps and shoot once. Would keep from having to get frustrated on a hunt and dump shells in the water.

I have seen the paper masters. You see them a lot in turkey hunting world. They can put 350 hits in a 10” circle at 40 yards but never kill a turkey. The real world is you are not sitting on a bench shooting at a perfectly still target. Plus you get the shakes and adrenaline, you need that big open pattern just in case. Guys can do what they want. I prefer to know so if there is an issue I can know why and change it. Many hunts I know it is the shooter and nothing more.
