(y) What he said. Get the Dogtra 2700 T&B.

Barrel length is really a personal preference. I think you will find most guys prefer 28" tubes in an O/U. Personally, I have always prefer shorter barrel and shoot my 16 ga. Citori with 26" barrels very well.

I enlisted in the Army and served from 1968-1971. Spent over a year and a half in Germany, 1969-1970. Drank lots of good beer and had a great time. Don't remember too many naked women. Well, maybe one when I was in Paris on Pigalle! :) Like Goose, I missed out on 3 pheasant seasons in my 20's.

Bob, if you have lost some of your hearing chances are you will have a difficult time hearing the bell, especially on windy days. I used to use beeper collars on my dogs until my hearing got to the point I couldn't hear the beeper. Stay with the GPS to find your dog.

And how old are you? Sounds like a senior moment to me. :)

I bought a Browning Citori 12 ga. back in the mid 70's. I had a heck of a time with the safety/barrel selector and it cost me several birds. As I was walking I would apparently bump the safety to the left and when I went take the safety off it would be between the O and U and would not come...

The model 11 was produced by Remington under a license from John Browning, who had licensed it to FN in Belgium. Browning did not buy the patent from Remington.

I would beg to differ with this statement but I don't want to start an argument. :)

Due to me not going to be there and a lack of interest I'm pulling the plug on this hunt. If anyone wants to try and put it back together you will have to contact Jon Bastable "jonnyB".

You options for a 16 ga. semi auto are quite limited. You will find that Browning will have the most 16 ga. autos available. Either in the new A5 or a used one in the older Auto 5. There are a few older Remington 16 ga. autos out there but many of those were built on a 12 ga. fame and a quite...

Your time will come.

My last hunt, and I mean probably the final hunt for both me and my dog, I was walking the edge of some very thick CRP. Bree got out into it a ways and when I looked at my Garmin Alpha I saw she was 60+ yards to my right and stopped. So I headed out in her direction, when I got within 20 or so...

That's one big Brittany. I had a male Brittany that was a 50 lb. solid muscle dog. I'll see if I can post a pic of him. Congrats on the two roosters.

Bob, there are better areas in the state than the area from Watertown up to the Pierpont area. I would suggest getting further west. West of Hwy 37. Golden Hour is the member on here that knows all the hot spots NW of Watertown but I don't think he is too anxious to share them with anyone...

Man, there's a bunch. Some of my elk hunts and my moose hunt were pretty special. And I've had some excellent dogs along the way. My last two Brittanys were probably the best of the bunch as hunting dogs, field trial dogs and super family pets.

If you read my Farewell post you probably know I won't be at the Geezer Hunt. There has been several of you that have expressed an interest in doing the hunt. I have visited with Haymaker (Dennis Hoyle) who is providing the land and lodging and you guys are still welcome to come that first...

Thanks for all the best wishes. I appreciate it. I knew the day would come, just never sure when that would be. I'm at peace with my decision. I'll still get the dog out running to keep her in shape. Thinking back over the years, I've hunted pheasants, Hungarian Partridge, Sharptails, Ruffed...

No new chapters. Just continue to enjoy retirement, play some golf, ride bike, exercise, watch grandkids ball games and spend winters in Arizona. BTW, got my first shotgun in 1956 at age 10. A Savage model 220 single shot .410. Still have it in my gun case.
