    What do you lose most often?

    It had been one of those big 15+ mile days. We had been parking one truck, drive to the other end of the block and hunt through. Kind of hop scotching around. That night, we cleaned birds, had a few beers and rehashed the day. Well, I had a few more beers than I should have. When I get home, I...

    Backup guns

    What's everyone take out of state for a backup? In the past I've taken one of my o/u's but I get more and more uncomfortable leaving it in the truck or motel room.

    Are you better at sporting clays or wild birds?

    I didn't hate trap. I shot for a few years. Was pretty good. It's just pretty boring. And as far as helping my shooting, I never thought it mimicked the quail I hunted. Sporting clays helped me a lot but still a lot of shots I'd never get in real life. Skeet, on the other hand was fun...

    How’s your shooting been?

    I'm shooting pretty good when I'm fresh but get worse as I get tired. Did miss one beach ball....twice. In my defense, It got up at my feet My littler 20 was on it in a flash. Then I decided if I shot, I was going to blow him to smithereens. So I waited. big mistake.
