The only real piece of advice I got was to buy a 20 gauge because I'm a chick, which really did me a disservice. I'm sorry, there's absolutely nothing about being a woman that makes a 20 gauge a better choice. I ended up upgrading to a 12 gauge within a few years, which made me much happier. It's a duck hunter thing.
After meeting a lot of hunters who used a variety of shotguns, I came to realize that the type of shotgun that's best for you really is first and foremost a function of your personality, so I created a personality test to help prospective gun owners see what might be best for them. I blogged about it back in 2012, and I recently updated that blog post to hand out at a California Waterfowl workshop for new hunters.

That's actually a fascinating observation.

Yep. 12s, 20s and 410s are nice, but for my entire life I've absolutely loved 10s, 16s and (oh, yeah) 28s. They're like musical instruments.
The 28 is about a grand a thing for a specific purpose that I've ever used.
