Hoping this was going to be about old guns.

The birds are where you find them.

Pre blizzard of 77/78. Dad says it just crushed bird populations around here. Quail have never returned.

I heard always carry a deck of cards. When you get lost, set down and play a hand of Solitaire, sooner or later someone will come along and tell you how to play.

My Setter don’t give a shit about finding winged birds. Frustrating to say the least.

Results! Got a bird apiece one shot kills. 9 hens 4 roosters seen total. They was holed up in a nightmare of phragmites. We call it elephant grass. Bout half of the bunch flew across creek to adjacent field. We crossed at a beaver dam and followed up. Good dog work and we had a great hunt.

If the triggers gold…the birds will fold

Shady- original name is Sadie. However, on account of her proclivity to sneak out of the house and go for a run she is permanently Shady

Just got the go ahead on a new spot that’s notorious for no’s. I said upfront I understand this isn’t carte blanche, won’t take other people, and won’t keep pestering. Ole boy said there’s birds in there, you can hunt one day have fun Merry Christmas! Headed out in an hour. Taking Dads...

Never shot at game of any kind and felt any recoil at all. I fully admit that any and all o/u reek of Gucci. And also anything made after 1980.

Wiffed on two gimmes this morning.

I can only hope I die out in bfe on a hunt with my boots on. Keep yer powder dry and run em to me.

They’re not inherently safer. Just easier to load and unload, making crossing fences, in and out of vehicles, laying gun down around dogs, easier and quicker and hence more likely to be done with an unloaded gun.

Sounds like ammo is the culprit and an easy fix.

Aww man, idk they went out of business.

Schwan man coming to our house was a big deal. I grew up on a farm out in the boonies. Any visitor was swarmed by kids and dogs let alone one with ice cream.

Easy load and unload another reason doubles rule.

Idk, crossed a deep creek 3 times on that hunt. Cleaned him soon as I got home. Couldn’t wait to get out of those boots. If ever there was a bird to hang for a couple days, that was one.

Shot an old bird Saturday, spurs would put yer eye out. Cooked him up with Zatarans that night. We noticed how tuff he was.

I think they’re referring to carrying capacity. Let’s say a field can support 100 birds in food and cover. You only need a handful of Roosters and lots of hens. If you had 130 birds you’ll save some hens shooting those roosters.
