Mike Shepard,
I'm from Montana, so don't know 'sic-em' about bobwhite quail hunting, but have to ask the following question in all sincerity:
If you are, in fact, Joe Wood's shooting instructor as you claim, 'why' is it that his shooting form in the field looks so much more natural than yours?
Just my opinion of course, but for all the world he looks (with that slouch hat) just like the veteran gunner in William Harnden Foster's frontispiece to his revered book, "New England Grouse Shooting". Mind you, ya' don't look bad in these photos, just a bit more arthritic than Joe does in being stooped over as you are when shooting. Is part of it in trying to peer beneath the cloud of BP smoke that you know is coming? Whatever it is, I wouldn't spend much time thinkin' about it.
signed,
'Curious' in Montana
