Any of you boys use a red dot duck hunting? Just wondering how y’all like it if you do.
It would make shooting a bird in flight incredibly difficult, as it essentially narrows your view, slows reaction time, and flies in the face of all field gunning principles for shotguns.
If you are shooting ducks off the water, turkeys, or doves off of power lines or tree limbs, sure, have at it.
But an impractical choice for bird hunting.

That wasn't my experience with it at all. The frame of the sight was so thin that you never even noticed it was there. You have both eyes open focusing on the target so you never see the frame of the sight only the red dot which appears to be floating well in front of the shotgun. The sight picture you see is a duck flying and your thinking I see the duck and there is a red dot flying right in front of him.
