Went to a local preserve this morning to knock the cobwebs off of me and my four legged buddy and finally try out a new/old gun.

Jaeger (GSP) with a few Florida Quail bagged using a high grade original Belgian Percussion SxS made in approximately 1850 by Francois Scheppers.

Now where are those Geese!



Really, I just thought the picture came out extra cool. This is my new favorite hunting picture.

I agree! Great picture.

That is one great picture - Jaeger's face says it all.

He looks like he's telling his master, "How 'bout a beer."

fixed it. lol

Better yet how 'bout both?

Really great picture, that's for sure. But as a percussion double enthusiast, I'd sure like another 1 or 2 of that cool Scheppers!

Hi all, well today was our pheasant opener, my friend Rick came up from MN as he has for the last few years, always enjoy hunting with him. Anyway, it was a nice day, a bit on the windy side however. It was not a typical opener, the birds were a bit on the spooky side and really didn't hold all that well. We did see quite a few of them. I was able to limit out early, Will got 2 and Jim 1. The dog worked very well, very happy with her, just one of those days I guess, more hens than boy birds. Will see what tomorrow brings.

My birds and my 12b Purdey:



Will with his birds and his 16ga Sauer Royal:



Jim and his bird, he was using my 12ga AyA Model 4 Deluxe:



Rick had to leave before we took pictures. He managed a grouse.

Anyway, a good day overall!

Regards!

Spooky Greg????????? That's an understatement and I blamed it on my recent prairie fire. My cousin Rachel and I walked the corn stubble this morning and the ones that flew, got up anywhere from 60 to 100 yards ahead of us in high gear. Being it was just the two of us and no dog, the rest of the birds had no trouble slipping to the side and laughed at us as we walked by. If you and Wade come here Monday you two better have a better battle plan than we did.
