I stumbled upon this forum last week after doing a Google search for reviews on the Beretta Silver Pigeon. Needless to say, I have spent a substantial amount of time on here over the past week and have really found it interesting and love all the different perspectives from upland hunters all over the nation.
A little about me... I currently live in Northern Utah on a 300,000 acre cattle ranch where I oversee the accounting of this ranch and 9 other ranching properties in Wyoming and Montana. I married my high school sweetheart and, together, we have two young children - a 3 year old boy and a 2 year old girl.
I grew up in a small farming town where hunting was a big part of my life. My father was/is an avid pheasant hunter and we always had a couple GSPs around the place.
A family member of mine owns 5,000 acres in South Dakota that makes for a wonderful 10 days of pheasant hunting every fall. In addition to the annual SD pheasant hunt, I usually spend 25+ days a fall hunting ducks, geese, huns, sharptails, sage grouse, ruffed grouse, blue grouse, and pheasants in Canada, Utah, Wyoming, & Idaho. There is just something about hunting birds!!
After hunting with some good buddies that have wonderful dogs, I have decided its time to look into getting one of my own. I have narrowed it down to two breeds, either a Brittany or a GSP. Choices, choices, choices....
I look forward to learning more and more from this forum in the future!
