Two of my sons, John and Trent and I flew out from under Hurricane Matthew Saturday the 8th and into the snow in Saskatchewan for a duck and goose hunt. I've been going up there for a week or two every Fall since 1993. One of my sons accompanied me in 1998 when he was 16; now Trent is 34. No outfitter, we just freelance and stay in a camp house my buddy bought and we share expenses on in one of those disappearing high prairie towns along the railroad tracks. 1st pic just shows the view from my shooting stool in the blind. Yeah I know it ain't a sxs but it sure kills the birds!:  Next pic might give some idea of how cold it was for three south GA boys:  This one's the boys and I in the blind:  My buddy and I shot with the boys every morning and then left them with the blind to shoot the afternoon while we spotted for the next morning's shoot This one shows one of their afternoon bags and I think the joy of the experience::  [/URL

Mills,
Very happy to see the little boy in the back of the pickup truck. If you take your children to the woods and lakes, you won't have to get them from jail.

Thanks Mike
George, looks like you had a great time. I have some buddies that go to Canada about this time every year and it is something I want to do.

....Yeah I know it ain't a sxs but.... Glad you went off topic a bit Geo. Nice set of pictures and looks like a good time. Truth for me is that it's been a bit since I shot at ducks with a double, and that time the barrels weren't lined up side by side. I'd rather be out in the field than over worry about what I'm toting.

I would take Beretta because Benelli uses spring recoil system that would kick living shit out of me and that would truly suck.

Wildfowling Steel shot ammo can be bought 24/7 at Walmart except for those located in the "Da Hood" where ammo sales curfew starts at 10pm. Not sure when they start ammo sales in am.

What about all the jamming in severely cold weather? Then what do you do? However, We are getting off track here, I'll start a new thread.
