Hey all, went out solo today to the area where we went on opener.....saw 5 grouse! Not at all like the opener! I did manage to get a double on some Huns, but....lost one in the flowers (hate doing that). Addie die very well considering. Boy, grouse sure are a funny bird...never know where or when they will be one place or the next. Still, great to get out!

Addie, the hun and my 16ga FN

Thanks but the gun I used is made by FN (still don't know what model it is - date code says it was made in 1945))

Here's a better pic of the gun (taken last season)

This morning with my new-to-me William Cashmore Nitro. I was following Archibald Rutledge in that I had buckshot in one barrel, turkey shot in the other. And the turkey walked by first!

That's a really fine Cashmore Nitro. Congrat's I have a fine Cashmore Nitro, too. If you'd like some pictures to compare, my email is in my profile.

Interesting details on the Nitro

Took Raina out and she did well, a bit tuckered as she is a bit out of shape, but she stuck with it. I was able to limit in an hour and a half. Got a double out of one group and then a single out of another. Jim managed 1. It was one of those not in the right place and the right time.

Anyway, here's Raina with the days tally. Jim used his AyA 20ga

Here's my birds. I was using y "meat" gun. A Charles Boswell 16b BLE. Two years ago one of the ejectors broke and our own SKB fixed her up for me. Works like a champ. Thanks Steve!!!!
