I was unaware of the shared limit thing. Wow

Makes the rest of us Georgians look bad. Sorry about that and I would have called the game warden. Some people need to feel consequences to understand they exist. Just my $.02 worth.

We hunted eight farms in four days and the numbers were about the same as last year - maybe down a little. We were in Douglas County, SD. The June floods kept it from being a stellar year in the local's opinions.

The farms we hunt are 10 miles east of Platte and we saw about the same number of birds as the two previous years. The June flood cost them a stellar year. Corn was about 70% out by opening day but an entire section of standing milo hurt. Temps were too warm for me. I prefer cooler weather but...

I leave tomorrow. Gonna run a grain cart a couple of days for my farmers prior to the opener. This will be our 28th consecutive year.

Easy there scooter. I see birds leaving the farms we hunt, gliding straight on to public areas every year and it's been SD for almost 30 consecutive years for me. I'm sure the public grounds push birds back to private as well.

Okay. I'll let everyone know how that works out for us.

It's called a free market economy with all the bells and whistles of supply and demand sprinkled in. I have a group of 9 and this is our 28th straight season hunting 8 different farms for 4 days each year. Some years have been better than others but never pen-raised birds!! We don't pay $200/day...

Big time fire potential at the moment in parts of the state.

What was the general area you scouted?

I hit the road 21 days from today.

With that many: 1. have a plan before getting to your spots. 2. make sure everyone wears safety glasses. 3. before leaving your lodging, make sure everyone knows to not slam doors at the field and keep chatter to a low whisper. 4. It's not a bad idea for maybe 3 or 4 in the group to have a...

Ride around and find secluded cover, preferably close to agricultural fields.

A commemorative bottle of 2024 South Dakota Pheasant season Basil Hayden bourbon. $50 or so.

Winner!

Much obliged!

If I am looking at the sn correctly, relative to the chart I have, it was manufactured between 1890 and 1919. Can that be right?

My grand father probably bought it in the late 50's, early 60's. I know I heard him say it was used when he bought it. I'll see if there is a SN I can research. I leave a Belgium 12 A5 in South Dakota at our farm house all year but my dad left me his Belgium 12 ga A5. It stays in Georgia. He...

Yep, the 1100 20 ga I got at 12 years old has made the SD trip.
