A simple poll to help us understand our target audience. We're revamping the Gear on 16ga.com next spring and this will aid in the decision making. Thanks for your time.

-Doug

Amended): I changed the Poll question from 'mostly' to 'best'. I'm looking for a category you'd most likely buy gear for.

Most States consider doves as upland.

I hope everyone starts using their 16 Gauge shotguns for other things besides upland birds.

60% upland, 35% clays, and a bit of waterfowl now and then.

How about just a "Small Game" category?

I've been shooting rabbits (as well as grouse, pheasant, woodcock, quail, etc.) with my 16Ga Lefever for almost 35 years. A pot of rabbit stew on a cold winter day feeds both the body and soul.

You left off turkey or do they fit in the upland category?

Primarily Waterfowl, Dove and Quail, probably in that order depending on Dove opportunities year to year.

Steve Voss;
I feel the same way, but the survey would only let me choose one or the other.

ps; the Sauer 16 Gauge is slowly coming along.

I amended the poll question and the added to the choices. What I'm looking for is bird hunters vs waterfowl vs clay shooters, as all require different gear.

Thanks, -Doug
