Yesterday's club limit of 12. Beretta 686 20. It's been a spectacular year so far with plenty of birds. This was the second shooting of the field in two weeks. I've been to two other fields on the second shooting and there were more than enough birds. Season goes out tomorrow and restarts on Oct. 11. Yesterday was pleasant to shoot--cloudy and temps in the 70's. We were skirted by thunderstorms until everyone was out of the field. Sometimes you just get lucky.

Hi all, went out today with my boys for shall we say an "interesting" hunt. First place we went to we got rained out, not a drizzle, but a down pour. By the time we got to the truck we were soaked! Went to another area and the wind came up, talking sustained 25 mph with gusts to 30mph. On top of that the dog cut her ear pretty bad, so we had to get her home to patch her up. Just one of those days to remember. We did manage to scratch some birds. Will (L) and Jim (R) with the 2 birds Will got and Raina our young GSP. He was using his 12ga Fabarm and Jim used his V. Sarasqueta 3EC:  I was using my 16b Charles Hellis and my bird:  Will see how tomorrow goes! Best! Greg

Hi all, went out after work for a short time, saw a few birds, but only one within range. Got it with my 12b Harkom & Sons. I do like hammerguns!  Best! Greg

I didn't want exclude my partner, Molly. Tough as nails. She'll remove prickly pear cactus buds on her own all day long on the fly. The gun is a 12 gauge 1907 LC No.OO w/5 pin locks. Just an original condition shooter w/fantastic wood (for an OO)

Nice work on the gun; it looks great. I like your pooch better, however.  Gil

Hi all, well today was our duck opener, not the best, the weather sucked! No wind, not a cloud in the sky, temps in the 70's and hordes of mosquitoes (not a few, but HORDES!) anyway, we did get some birds. I was 1 shy of a limit (we can shoot two additional teal here until Oct 12 for a total of 8). Still, we had a great time, my boys and I. Will (L) and Jim (R) with their birds, Will used his 12ga Fabarm Classis and Jim his Yildiz 12ga O/U:  My birds and my 12ga Bernadelli Italia  Guess we'll see what tomorrow brings! Best! Greg
