I really do not understand their objection to 12 ga because as you say they can be loaded pretty light.

I wonder if they are concerned about getting hunters who throw up a barrage of ack-ack indiscriminately?

The Orvis recommendation carries a lot of weight with me after experiencing Libby's in Maine. This autumn will be my fifth year there.


How were you hunts at Libby's? I have really been wanting to give ruffed grouse a try.

A wild Quail doesn't need a flushing dog...place reminds me of Disney World


Joe, please correct me if I'm wrong, but I never saw the post where they said they were hunting "wild birds". And I would agree with your last statement. These places are like Disney World!
