They asked why? I said that depending on the shot size, the shot could travel 330 yards (if they were using shot #2) and if someone was in the lake shooting at a duck that is flying in the direction of the houses, the shot would fall on or hit the houses. Well, they didn't know what I was talking about as they were not hunters. Anyhow, I was curious now with the additional homes all being built if anyone has heard what will happen with duck hunting on the lake. I checked the Florida website and didn't find anything. In North Dakota, you can't fire in the direction of any dwelling under 440 yards. Will they be putting up a temporary buoy markers in the lake to mark off how close the hunters can get to residences? There was a frame / vinyl house that was nice but I told the agent that the shot could put a hole in the siding if the conditions were right. If anyone has any insight on this, I'd be glad to hear what you know.
