Hey all, only had a very short time to hunt today, have a wedding to go to, so while I'm waiting for my wife to get ready! I thought I'd post today's gun and game. Was a wonderful day weather wise, birds were wild in one area we hunted, but did manage two before we had to get back. I used my 12b J. Blanch (with those dangerous damascus bbls!) Best, Greg

Hi all, went out today solo, was a windy one 20mph, but did manage to get a limit. Raina worked well in spite of the wind, made a good retrieve on a bird that lead her on a merry chase. Good day overall. I used my 12b H&H Royal: Raina and the days bag: Best, Greg

Took a few Bob White Quails this weekend. Used a E.J. Churchill 20 gauge, Premiere SLE, 28 inch barrels, RST shells, #7 shot. First time I used the gun in the field and it was a delight. Great weather and great dog work too. Sorry for lack of pictures. I will check and see if my IT guy gjw (Greg) can post a picture for me

Thanks, SRH
May God bless America and those who defend her.

Greg, some folks have safe queens; you have Pheasant and Sage Grouse Queens. Great looking guns. Rick, I second Stan in anticipation of our season. Gil

Gil As much as I envy the seemly endless variety of beautiful doubles Greg pictures, I admire that they are photographed in the field with game. Were they with someone else they may languish in a safe, negating their purpose for existence. I had one double that was "too nice" to rough hunt with. I sold it when I realized that I felt that way.

Thanks GLS and Hoof for the very kind words, they are very much appreciated! I've been blessed with being able to own some nice guns and do get them out every season for either hunting or shooting clays. They may get out only once, but they do get out. IMO, it would be a shame for them to just sit and not do what they were intended for. But, I do understand some folks have safe queens, a matter of pride in ownership, so my hats off to them also, without them, some very fine guns would not be around, but would be trashed by someone who would not appreciate the fine art that they truly are.
But I'm not the only one with some good ones. There have been some mighty nice guns posted here in this thread, kind of wish I could own some of them!
Again, many thanks!
Greg
