Yeah, Hevi-Shot isn't needed for the close shots, but who really knows what the situation is going to present. Sometimes, the birds just don't want to come in close.

This is the problem on the managed areas that I hunt: Guys don't let the birds work the decoys, and take shots that are way out of range. So now the birds won't come in close, and the guy feels he needs something with "longer range", so they buy hevi or something similar, and take longer shots.....way to long (100+ yards). All this does is educate the birds to fly even higher, and those that are hit become sailers and end up in the refuge, where they become statistics.
Then the rest of the season, it becomes nothing but pass shooting......might as well leave the dekes at home.
It's very frustrating.....................
