Nice guns but the safety is in the wrong spot IMO.

I have a decent amount of Trulock chokes and have no complaints with them.

Also agree that ditches can be a good option. If you read old reports here lots of info on strategies for that.

Lots of good info from BB. I don’t think there would be value in towing the Ranger all the way there but just my opinion. Another piece of advice for no dog is when a bird is shot have someone get a good mark on it and do t take their eyes off the spot. Others all get to that spot ASAP to find...

In that price range you open up many possibilities. First question would be what gauge? If anything other than 16 my personal preference is Beretta. They typically fit me really well as they are built and feel like overall a good value. Another option would be CG. I’ve not owned one but they a...

Often times prices don’t pencil at face value but when figured in to the whole it makes a little more sense. Also many other factors come in to play. The one thing I know for certain is many of the most financially successive people I know own good amounts of land. Some bought very cheap and...

A friend of mine tells a story about his father in law going to SD in a convertible Cadillac and drove around shooting from the car. At some point they had to stop as there were too many shell casings laying on the floor to push the accelerator. Spoke with an old land owner this year and he...

I may be mistaken but I don’t think his 15 lost birds were all with the little gun. Goose - clarify please?

I will throw this out to everyone, including goose, if you are ever in central OH I have a membership at Cardinal Shooting center. I will host and pay for the clays for anyone that wants to shoot a round or two as long as I can make it work in my schedule which shouldn’t be too hard. Through...

I am not certain the exact date that starts but yes that is correct or shall I say has been correct in previous years. I assume there have been no changes made to that rule. Is a nice feature allowing you to get the full value out of the cost.

BB brings up some great points. I have been blessed to shoot a decent amount of clays and quail with three different master class sporting clays competitors. Have learned a lot from them and the time spent shooting. I will NEVER be to their level on a sporting clays course. Doesn’t matter how...

That may explain a lot.

Reading your report was what motivated me to write mine so thank you! Sounds like you had a great trip also.

Good question. The license non Residents can buy for pheasants is two 5 days periods or 10 days of hunting. There is no limit on the number of times you can buy that in a year. So we used both 5 day periods from the first purchase and one of the 5 day periods from the second purchase and have...

East of the river and north of the interstate. I would call it north central part of the state.

Great question. It was blowing over 20 MPH. The two on the right were the last two to finish our limit and had been killed with in 30 minutes of the picture so couldn’t get them posed quite like I wanted. The other 4 were purposely set in the bed of the truck with the tails up against the front...

I think it’s too easy to paint with a wide brush here and flatly say a 28 shouldn’t be used and will lead to more winged or wounded birds. If you are going to use 3/4 oz loads with open chokes then I agree, likely to lead to lost birds. After hunting 10 days this year with my 28 gauge I have a...

Help me understand how 1 oz of lead shot traveling 1200 FPS travels farther from a 20 gauge barrel versus 1 oz of lead shot traveling 1220 FPS from a 28 gauge barrel?

Venison sticks, oranges and apples for snacks. Typically a sandwich for lunch. Dinners are steaks, pork, nachos, fish, pizza, elk. Lots of options.
