Young Nic and I are just in the house after dressing two limits shot on birds passing to a waterhole behind our stands. Sporty shooting was on offer. Birds had height and speed enroute to their destination. I shot approximately half as well as yesterday's outing. Oh well, now I have a "reason" to try a SxS tomorrow. This first Woodford Reserve he poured me is already helping erase the memory of some poorly pointed Misses. I know..... at this stage in Life, I should just be content that I had a nice outing. But..... this missing thing..... I still can't get comfortable with it. Best in sport to You

Someone once said “If you could hit them all it wouldn’t be fun”.
I’m not convinced, but suspect I will never be able to find out.

First time I ever went to a pigeon shoot I bought five practice birds to "see what this was all about". With my old MX-8 I proceeded to drop all five dead inside the ring. As I walked out a buddy looked at me and said "This may well be the worst thing that has ever happened to you". However, I found my success to be very short lived when, awhile later that morning, I shot my first crank.
My life shotgunning could be described as being long periods of mediocrity interspersed with brief flashes of brilliance. Very few flashes, I might add.
May God bless America and those who defend her.

A covey of Grey’s in the front stubbles. I don’t know the proper syntax to do a video embedded link. [img] https://imgur.com/a/Ka7YTag[/img]
Out there doing it best I can.

Going this afternoon to shoot doves with the 20 ga. Parker DHE with the 32" barrel set. If it doesn't rain us out maybe I'll have pics to put up this evening.
