One of my birds had some real long spurs, dark and sharp:  Best! Greg If the old Brit authors are to be believed, you did a great favor to the local pheasant population by killing it. Looks like a mean old bird which doesn't reproduce too well, but interferes with younger birds' reproduction by fighting off a bigger nesting ground -using these spurs.

Old men don't reproduce too well either.

Hunted the quail lease for 3 hrs this morning. Found 4 nice coveys and killed 4 birds. My brother tagged along as well (mostly to watch the dogs) but he couldn't resist the urge so he shot one covey rise and a couple singles. He's easy to pick out in the video by his "SWAT" team tactics on shooting the coveyrise. He's a big game hunter (mostly bow) so give him a break!  Here is a quick video showing some of the highlights. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82U0-twmxFE I used my Miroku FE-II SLE on this hunt.

Happy Thanksgiving to one and all! Went out today for a couple hours, didn't do too bad, but should have had one more...oh well, that's hunting! Will got one and I got one and two grouse. Duchess did well as always. Adam, nice pics and nice video. I was using my 12b HJ Hussey Imperial Ejector:  Will and his Fabarm:  And Duchess:  Best! Greg

Hi all, went out Black Friday hunting and also a bit of English vintage gun day. Will did very well and limited out fairly early in the day, I didn't do so well, but still today was a real nice day, weather wise and company wise. Will used my 16b Charles Boswell and the results of it's use:  I used my Samuel B. Allport 12b:  Duchess in the field:  Best! Greg

Better to keep your mouth shut and be thought stupid,than open it and confirm.
