A good mornin
Well, well, well, it looks like I may be leading the pack at present. This morning I was out with the sunrise. Had myself a little flatlands safari. And, as usual, I missed the first five. I soon got er figured out, had a small sip of truck whiskey, and settled down. From there, I went 10 for 10. The death toll stands at 5 dove, 3 misc birds who had that look in their eye like they were about to start depredating some crops. (And that is a community service, I’ll be writing off 3 shells on my taxes as a charitable donation.) Then 2 “moon cricket quail” then I missed another dove but spanked a biggole jack rabbit on my way back to the truck. I breasted out my birds, bagged em and pitched them fellers in the fridge to be joined by some of their brethrens this evening. Washed my hands and made it into work by ten past 9. So far, its been a good day.

Just goes to show that a little bit of amber goodness can improve anything.
Still knowing how you run a shotgun I can't hardly believe the 10 for 10 statement unless the birds were so thick that even I couldn't miss
Steve, I believe you may have a hard time missind some of these critters. There were a few that were easier to miss, which I missed.
WELL HAD JUST A LITTLE BIT O FUN WITH THE BIRDS THIS WEEKEND. DIDNT LIMIT BUT PUT 10 BIRDS IN THE FRIDGE. NOT THE BEST SHOOTIN IVE EVER DONE, WITH THAT MANY BIRDS AND 32 EMPTY HULLS BUT HELL IM NOT CONCERNED. THE COUNT INCLUDED 7 WW AND 3 MOURNINGS. COULD HAVE SHOT A THOUSAND OR SO KILDEES BUT THE WARDER FELLA WOULDNT HAVE LIKED IT. I HEAR THEY MAKE GREAT PRACTICE THOUGH. TILL NEXT TIME
THAT SHOULD READ WARDEN FELLA
Yea, they sure do, if you dont wanna take my word for it, just ask George W. I went out the other day (monday evening when I got back into town) but kinda missed the good hour, got into em at dark. Got 2 but...While it is more fun to have a captain to go with the "door gunner to pilot, door gunner to pilot, target engaged and destroyed" senerio, one can go about it on ones own if one needs. I'd take Scooter out to be my capt. but she doesnt see the joy in rippin 45mph after jack bunnies through a bumpy field only to blast something we aint gonna eat. She says she kills enough stuff at work. I, however have killed more.
PS, I'm at 7 dove, 8 NADs, and 5 jackbunnies.
