My son and I were both unsuccessful. Luckily I know of a few sunflower fields nearby that are looking pretty good.

Well we ended up getting drawn for a hunt in Kentucky. Hopefully it’s a good time. Our first time getting drawn for it.

How does your daughter like her 28 gauge ? I’ve been thinking about buying one eventually . I mainly use a 16 gauge shotgun for most of my hunting. I do own a 12 gauge shotgun but I love my 16 gauge more.

I do own a 12 gauge shotgun but I love my 16 gauge more. She loves it. Very good on recoil. Shells are pricey but available. It’s a tactical style Mossberg SA-28 semi auto. Came with a turkey choke and I ordered more chokes separately. May get me one too.

I've been basically shooting 28 ga loads in my 12 ga at Sporting Clays the last few times I went to shoot.

I struggle enough with a 12 ga, I tried shooting skeet with a 20 and got my butt handed to me, my hats off to anyone that can get the job done with a 28!

I should add that while this was initially a turkey gun the rear oval truglo sight (intended to put the turkeys head in) was a huge help for a new shooter. Explaining keeping the front bead in that sight window and keeping her swing through on the birds made it a ton easier on her. Really made aligning a much smoother process.
The very light recoil from the semi auto also kept her from any at the shot flinching. We kept it to one shot at a time.
