My dad is coming out to join me and my two youngest sons. Trying hard to get my oldest son to fly out as well. We will have a 75 year age spread in hunters and three generations in the same field for what I suspect will be the last time.

Gun line up looks like this for opening day. Dad will be using the Fox 16 A grade I gave him, I will be shooting a 20A grade, middle son will be using a 20 Sterlingworth , youngest son will be using a 20 Sterlingworth with a stock that has been shortened to lepracon size. If my oldest son comes he will get to choose from any Fox that I own that is left. I intend to make opening day a Fox affair. Second day is going to be a Lefever day for me.

We also will be having a pig feast the Labor Day shoot for the rest of my friends, about 40 if turnout is as good as last year. This will be the last year that I get to shoot my farm and I will miss the birds, hunters, family, food and good lies. Next year another fellow will own it and a tradition will end unless I find another farm to buy and plant for doves.
