Number one Grandson Emory's first blood. A trophy squirrel if there ever was one. And courthouse proof of the greatest value of the .410 shotgun...Geo

Way to go, Emory! What memories that brings to recall!
If he needs a S x S .410 a little later to carry awhile, I've got a Stoeger Uplander, on which I shortened the buttstock, for my grandsons. They've outgrown it and it sits languishing in the safe. It would really like to be carried by a kid again. He's welcome to use it at no charge. Dings and scratches added to it would only enhance it's "charm". Just let me know.

Stan, I already have him a cut down Miroku Charles Daly 500 20ga. I appreciate the very generous offer, just the same. A lot...Geo

Excellent. Mine graduated to 20s pretty swiftly, too. If I may take a little Grandad privilege, and I know it's an old pic, but this one is just so special to me. Grandson Jackson at age 9 with the Stoeger .410 after an early season dove shoot. All 9 killed on the wing. SRH

George & Stan, Great pictures and proud memories, you've done well! Having only Granddaughters, I'm hoping to have the same chance. Karl

I surely hope you get that opportunity. We've a newish granddaughter too, Karl, at 6 mos. old. Hope to get to make those memories again with a little "tomboy". But, if she's too girly for all the gun stuff, well that's alright, too. She'll be special in her own way, whatever.

We closed out the Ga.season today in both new and old territory. Abby and Willa did better than we did; lots of great dog work and escapees which isn't a bad thing. It's been a fine season and my 90 year-old mother sure enjoys eating woodcock as does the family. We've got 10 days from today in SC and we haven't been there since opening day. We were lucky to find new ground as high water kept us out of 3 of our prime areas. Gil

That was a productive morning! You guys need to dust off some of your trees. That's an awful lot of cobwebs on some of them. Nothing like the huge splashdown of a big goose to make one's day.
