Hi all, took the day off today to do a bit of hunting by myself (and Raina of course). It was a perfect day, overcast, cool and light winds. Just nice to be out. I hunted the ranch/farm of some friends of mine instead of around the house, change of scenery. Went to visit the final resting place of our beloved Duchess, sure do miss her. I managed to shoot one of the birds about 100 yards from where she lays. I'm sure she was with us! Anyway, I used my 16ga Garbi 100 today, nice gun.  And of course Raina  Best! Greg

That was a deceptive picture, it was probably the flattest place for miles. We were in the Lower Salmon.

First woodcock of the year shot over my one year old setter Thicket. The gun is a 16 gauge "no name" Belgium built in the 1880's with blued 31 inch Damascus barrels choked cyl & cyl.Not your "typical" woodcock gun but she seems to get the job done.

Hi all, well today is the end of a nice three day hunting weekend. My friend Rick from MN came out again this year, we hunted Sat and Sun. Saturday was a bust, no birds in the bag, saw some, but that's about all. Today, Rick was only able to hunt for a couple hours, nothing with Rick. As soon as he left, Will and I got into them. I was ale to limit and get a grouse and Will managed 2. Raina really worked well today, we would have lost a couple birds if she wasn't with us. She's progressing well. Anyway, Rick and Will  My birds, I was using one of my favorite guns, my 12b Henry Atkin  Will and his 16ga Sauer Royal  The Raina Dog  Best! Greg

I'll saaaaaaaay .............. 5, and there is engraving on your double's receiver saying ............... CAN'T MISS.
Heck, that's good shooting on doodles even if the answer is 20.
