Goose, if you were a Beatle….Ringo…👍

This thread was 6 years ago…time flies!

Cool!!!! 👍👍👍👍👍

Nice!!!! 😊

I’m a Benophile….he who uses a Benelli 28 gauge in ways that are legal, but just barely…😁

The only guys I’ve hunted with that shoot 28’s were last year, a guy that’s been using them for decades, great dogs, he’s a good shot…watched him hunt a few weeks ago, couldn’t believe the birds he was putting up in a sea of CREP…has pointers. And a buddy of mine joined me for an afternoon...

Got an email from SD GFP in the past day…they’re facilitating the ability for us hunters to thank landowners for putting land in programs that allow us to hunt…may be an email thank you…I think that’s great…I’ve thought about sending thank you notes…I’ve thanked them in person when I...

Truth is, lots of guys lose lotsa birds, regardless what they’re shooting…buddy called me earlier, he and his son are in SD hunting…gave them some tips on public land spots, CREP mostly..told me the first spot they went yesterday they flushed a bunch of birds, 10+, and they both got a clear shot...

Kinda like the Hutterites, but different…

I think they fear that they’re competing for land with deep pocketed conservation organizations…

Food + adjacent cover is always a good starting point…picked corn next to grass, cattails, etc…

An original Parker 28 gauge would be even better…I wish Fox guns didn’t have so much drop, I’d like one that fit…my Sterlingworth 16 from ‘27 has too much drop, but I love the gun…a cheek riser helps, but too much bs…some of the original Parkers are 2 1/2” guns…not sure about 28’s…would like one...

But Ted has Shemaine….Goose needs to produce a pic of a hot, scantily clad woman clinging to him…in fact, 12 pics…we’ll make a UPH calendar out of it…buckskin lingerie, ideally…one just wearing a coonskin cap (the gal, not goose)….but you know, if he wanted to “wear” that old A5, with the round...

Yeah, hard to imagine approaching life at 60 the way I did at 20…but having said that, I often feel like I’m 20 or 30….I sometimes think about my dad and his buddies when they were my age…I see them differently than who I am, but maybe that’s normal, or inevitable…they were 35-40 years my...

More than age, I think it’s a continuum of life experience…I’ve hosted “mature” individuals that haven’t hunted much, and they’re gung ho to shoot em up and take pics and brag to their buddies back home…saw it last trip…when one hunter has that history of different stages, and matures into a...

I’ve been sending him pics of those baby roosters, post-harvest…he’s actually requested more, and he’s provided me SASE’s to send them in. There’s something going on…

Yes…Not even sure if PF stickers, etc are safe in the eyes of some farmers…non-hunting farmers…lots of corn seed gets eaten by pheasants in the late spring…

Sinatra, Cash and George Jones…

I kinda recall negative comments geared toward local chapters that may have favored certain landowners vis-a-vis habitat projects, PF resources, etc…just seemed like 1/3 or more of the commenters were bashing PF…maybe more?

I agree…I also would say that I doubt guys here are suggesting it’s the norm…it’s the exception for me, for sure…but it’s happened this season, may or may not happen again this season. The reality is most of my shots are 15-30 yards, I’d say, and getting 3 most days is a fairly quick thing…an...
