Good luck Britchaser, I’m right around the corner…Drove around a bit yesterday afternoon and am cautiously optimistic. Saw about 8 birds in a 30 minute drive. Be safe and have fun!!!
Totally awesome pictures! I know you enjoyed the time out there with your Dad. I just got back from a 4 day hunting trip with my 83 year old Dad. Great to see him out there enjoying the very thing he turned me on to as a youngster.
I used 5 boxes of the Warchief 2 3/4” 3/5 in North Dakota a couple weeks back and was very pleasantly surprised. My percentage went up tremendously with very few cripples. These are certainly worth the money to me.
The B&P shells are fine. The height of the brass has no correlation to the amount of powder or shot. I have used the B&P 1 1/16 #6 (don’t think they are made anymore) on wild birds and they kill ‘em graveyard dead.
Just picked up a 2011 Suburban with 59K on it. Got 20 MPG on the first tank. I think I’ll park the D-Max and go with the smooth suburban which will be plenty of room for 3 guys 2 dogs and gear/supplies for a week.
