Hey all, well today was out annual Christmas Eve day hunt. Didn't do very well, in fact, no birds at all! Saw some, but they were pretty wild. Still I had a great time with three of the best hunting partners I could have, my boys and my GSP.

Jim, Will and Raina



Merry Christmas to all!

My Boss hammer and my FIL’s Grant 28 bore boxlock get into some action. We chased wild birds on public land yesterday to no avail. So today we opted for a preserve hunt. Merry Christmas all!

That's a very nice Lindner Daly. I own one very similar (1898) in 20 gauge. It is good to see your's being put to constructive use.

Merry Christmas!

Limit from my Christmas Eve Dove shoot.....Poor picture, lots of shadows....I was rushing a bit as I was going to be late for Christmas Eve plans......But first things first.....

Came upon this field we had shredded last week prior to Friday's opener.....Doves had found it by yesterday afternoon. I was headed back to the Headquarters with the Bird dogs in the back of the rig when I spotted all these birds working.....
Quick glance at my watch showed I had maybe an hour of shooting time.
I quickly parked and walked back 200 yards to this tree and took a stand, Birds continued to pour in ahead of today's Cold front and I was able to limit in @40 minutes....

Had a 20 bore FN 28" quail gun with me, and several Doves really got the best of me in the wind.....Was able to scratch this limit out in exactly a Box of AA #8's.....Going back Wednesday with a proper Winter Dove Gun and we'll see if I can even up the odds,

Oh man, I’d love a solid rib 20 bore super too.....no doubt about that. Definitely, a COOL factor there.

Good Eye for a Superposed Buzz.......While I have had a lot of them over the years, I agree with you this later (@ 1972 onward) version is my preference..... Triggers, top rib, and stock dimensions.....All pretty much perfection in an O/U destined for field use....

Floyd got back in town last night from NM visiting family and despite warm temps and threat of rain, we took Pop and Sadie, his Britts, to some new ground and found some birds. We couldn't get Sadie to come out of the dog box and wear the beret which was a gag Xmas gift to Floyd. He in good nature ribs me about my French guns and boots, etc. As a good sport he wore the beret and held a bird shot with my Darne R10 20 ga. We beat the rain by minutes. Floyd's a professional carver by trade and here is a piece I've shown before. Everything is carved and painted by him including the leaves and grasshopper. He shoots as good as he carves and paints.
