I have a copy of the tape of Bing and Phil shooting phes in Iowa? on a VERY cold day. Phil shot a 12 ga M12 that showed a lot of wear - lots of silver showing on the receiver. Bing shot what appears to be a Purdy in a very small bore, with long barrels. This may have been the 28 ga already mentioined.
I am glad to know that someone else remember the "albino" phez episide! I have vivid memories of watching that episide - seems to me the albino phez was actually a chicken. I just remember them laughing and carrying on in a way that only Bing and Phil could.
This board has had the pleasure of enjoying the comments of the gentleman who filmed these episodes. I am sorry that I can not remember his name but his posts discussing his personal experiences with this series was a treat.
Around the steel no tortured worm shall twine.

A clip from Andy's Gang, the difference between then and now is that Pita would have stopped it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xBGblSmeC-k&NR=1

Jay, Funny what we remember isn't it? My memory if the albino pheasant episode (don't bank on any of this) was that Phil was carrying on when it flushed and joked that Bing had just shot one of the farmer's chickens. It turned out to be an albino rooster. Dub Taylor was the character actor that I couldn't remember from the plantation quail shooting episode. He was lights out with his double, but I don't recall what model it was. Jim

I recall an episode where William Shatner was bowhunting for grizz. He was backed up by a rifle bearing guide which they clearly showed. Shatner did kill the bear up pretty close for the shot as I recall.
It was the only hunting show I recall from my youth.

PeteM,
Thanks for the pic of Andy with his .410-bore Parker Bros. The same pic is on page 68 of Timberdoodle by Woolner. There are several pics from that episode in the Andy Devine wing of the museum at Kingman, Arizona. Also some pics of Andy doing the honors at Grand Junction, as well as his shooting coat, hat with all his badges from the Nationals.
Dave

The reason that Jackie Stewart was on the show is that he was not only a 3 time F1 champion but also the 1 st alternate on Britan's 1960 Olympic trap team. He went racing after not making it to the Rome Olympics. The man can SHOOT. He had a shooting school at Glen Eagles in Scotland at one time.

For some reason the episode I remember the most is one featuring John Connally, the Governor of Texas who was also shot while riding with John Kennedy, elephant hunting in Africa. Even after Dallas and to his credit Connally remaind a supporter of the 2nd amendment his whole life. The other thing I clearly remember about the Crosby-Harris hunts is their singing while hunting. Unfortunately with the Petas and Antis of this world holding a politically correct sway we'll in all likelyhood never see the likes of this again. Jim
The 2nd Amendment IS an unalienable right.
