How about we bring it back to wingshooting? It's great to see youngsters photos of their first deer etc, but this.......other just not what I was hoping to see, has nothing to do with doubleguns !

Ill note that the OP, Greg, who we have to thank for this great thread each year, posts pics of wingshooting, his kids and bigger game hunting, like deer. I wouldnt have it any other way.

The elephant pic sort of shocked me as well, but it is game/gun and completely on topic here. Its just outside my personal area of familiarity. We've certainly had other safari type pictures posted in this annual thread over the years. I say if you're proud of it go ahead and post it. JMHO...Geo
Uh, maybe not South America dove pictures with dead birds piled high and wide as a Volkswagen.

Sorry, I led your post astray. I am glad we saw the pictures we did (the bull is awesome). As a dad I tend to overshare, and I consider many of you here my friends. How about we head back to the spirit of the thread. My son with a pheasant we killed during our youth season. He shoots a Remington Peerless that my wife originally bought for me on our fifth anniversary. Then my daughter on her first upland hunt. I put a 20 gauge youth stock on a 28 gauge Wingmaster my father gave me a few years ago. No birds because she didn't hit anything, but we are working on that. Better luck next time out!

Hoof, your pics/comments were spot on. Dont apologize. Most of us who hunt birds also hunt deer and enjoy you sharing pics of your kids and their trophies!!! Keep them interested in the sport! Thnx!!

This is from today. These 2 were all we could do for almost 6 miles of hunting on public land today. Yesterday, was almost as far and we had no birds at all but some REALLY cold fingers.

Hey all, here's one from this last Saturday. Number 2 son and I went out, but Jim got the only one in the bag. I knocked one down, but alas he gave Raina the slip. Hate doing that. We saw quite a few birds, mostly hens (that's GOOD!). Raina had some great points (hens of course), but the rooster were wild. The day was just beautiful and the company fantastic! Jim and Raina Best, Greg

Hoof,
Good to see more Pennsylvanians bought the pheasant tag. Although it seems a bit ridiculous, it would be disappointing to see that program die out. Hopefully, your daughter can get on a bird or two in the late season. Waidmannsheil!
