Killed 25 yesterday. Didn't have any .22 Ratshot. Used th' 20 gauge with a 7/8 ounce load of 9's. Retriever is soft-mouthed so he did well in his retrieves. Had a dozen Scrambled in with my Cheese Eggs for B'fast.....adds sort of a sweet taste!! We'll be hittin' the Hummingbirds soon once the migration gets in full swing!!

Can't hide money

When do hummingbirds usually arrive?

I'd think you were just kidding if not for your location.

Daisy Red Rider is more sporting.

Na a blow gun is where it's at...I used to walk around the pond n try n peg dragon flies.. it's fun as a kid

Badminton racquet and a case of beer is a good time too. Any exposed light fixtures are in danger though.

They weren't around not that long ago. Not my 20 anyway

I smacked a few with the wife's tennis racquet this past weekend. They're wearing out my BGE table

When i worked deep water on boats I brought a slingshot and a large carton of BBs one long trip. I would put about 25-30 BBs in the pouch per shot. Must have shot at a thousand flying fish before I finally hit one lol.

I hate them but they are primarily pollinators of our blueberries, raspberries, blackberries and mulberries so keep them around for the most part... tennis racquet works great once it gets late summer and their job is done

Used a 20 ga?? You're the kind of person who'd carry a 12 ga to a quail preserve.
Back up to a .410, at least.
Brother I wouldn't of told that.

I put out several traps 3 yrs ago. Some caught a few. Some caught none.
Very few since then. And they do help pollinate my Orange trees in the spring.
I have a spot where, what I believe are Males, congregate and hover in formation
They push each other around change positions. They will buzz ya if you walk by.
I don't try to kill them. Just keep an eye on my wood.

Read the post again, more slowly. And with a sense of humor

20 Ga. is for rookies.
I shoot em with my 7mm Weatherby Mag.
I don't like tracking something after I shoot it.

I prefer 22lr to save on ammo costs. I have a dog to track the blood trails.

This^^^^^. I have a badminton racquet propped up near each door. Probably served up 30 so far.

I did the same thing this past weekend. Bought me a badminton racket and wore a few out

I wonder what the annual kill numbers are for badminton rackets????

Bee careful what you say... Chuckie may end up requiring licensing and tagging requirements if the thinks there's money to be made.
