Abstract
Waterfowl attracting shotgun shells that include case, primer, powder charge, wadding, and weighted material. When the weighted material is fired into the air, the material falls back to earth. A speed of at which the weighted material falls and an appearance of the weighted material as it falls are chosen to attract waterfowl. In preferred embodiments, the speed is about a speed that a shot waterfowl falls after being shot or a live waterfowl lands, and the appearance is a fluttering appearance. Each waterfowl attracting shotgun shell can include one piece of weighted material or plural pieces. In use, one or more waterfowl attracting shotgun shells can be loaded into a shotgun along with regular shotgun shells.
