    Acceptable Loss Rate

    I shoot a bird, I don’t dare avert my eyes from the spot it went down and I run…run to the spot. Holdover from no dog days I reckon. Lots of time they’re there blinking eyes. Ring their necks and roll on.

    Vintage/older Over Unders

    Pop has a Marlin 90 in 16 gauge. Not a fan of O/U. However I have to admit this one comes up nice. We both are lefties.

    Best for last

    Hit 3 different fields. Reckon around 85 acres total. Seen 10-12 hens. 5 cocks. Pop missed a high passover and I missed a crossing bird. First bird I shot dropped over a creek. A coyote made a dash for it but copper coated 4’s changed his mind. Just peppered him at the distance. Saw a...

    Books!!

    Love Ian Frazier. Lot a good stuff mentioned. I’m gonna check out the classics, Rutledge, Babcock etc. On that note I’ll recommend W.H. Foster’s “New England Grouse Shooting”. Excellent read with fantastic Illustrations.

    Books!!

    I’m a voracious reader and thought I would welcome members to recommend some favorites. A couple titles I think a lot of are “Pheasants of the Mind: a hunters search for a mythic bird” by Datus Proper “The best of Nash Buckingham” compiled by G.B. Evans Check ‘em out

    What's the Consensus of Pheasant Hunters

    Sorry I’m late to the thread. Still may be able to save some of you. 20 gauge is a woman’s shotgun. Give your 20 gauge a peck on the cheek and put it back in the kitchen. Grab the 12 and bring home the bacon. Keep yer powder dry and run em to me.

    Snow and pheasants?

    I can't feel my fingers!

    Get 2 pair of the gloves you like the best. Wear one pair and stick the other in the front of yer pants. Switch em out as needed. My Pop did this for me as a youngster and it works to this day. Run em to me

    Final Rise, Chief Upland, Marsupial, Q5

    Been hunting Badlands vest a few years now. Love it…but you cannot load birds with it strapped on. Undo straps-set gun down-load bird. Also I’ve never had faith in any elastic shell holders on any gear period. Put em in a pouch and roll. As a kid I had to fill every elastic shell holder...
