Their waterfowl data are based on 1,315 ducks killed or wounded by 106 hunters. Most losses came in pass shooting (from dry land near water), at which crack shots lost one-fourth of their hits, average shooters more than one-half. Fewest were lost in shooting over decoys: only 10.7% of 384 ducks. Most of the hunters shot in marshes, ordinary ones losing 41.5%, cracks 16%, for an average of 29.3% of all birds...
