Oh, I understand what you're saying, but restraint is a virtue.
That screw head is all I see in that picture.

Nice picture, Gary. I am going to introduce "native" sunflowers to my part of GA next January or February. I'm sick of planting these Perodovik types for the deer to eat 35% of the field before they get 12" high. Deer won't mess with those "wild" ones I am told.

Having a field of them repopulate each year with no more than a light harrowing would be nice. The kind we grow are too darn expensive to plant for the deer to eat them up.

We enjoyed another good dove shoot this afternoon. This time over a small burnt off corn field. A few Blue Wing Teal flew the field out of a small cypress pond in one corner. The Teal season opened today but I haven't bought a duck stamp yet so I held my fire. Guys picked up a couple.

I shot the fancy BSA I posted pictures of a few weeks ago and I'm glad to say it worked perfectly and it's a death ray on doves...Geo

Hey all, well today was our Grouse/Hun opener, I was out with my son Jim, daughter Teresa and a last minute buddy, Rick. It was a beautiful day, warm, sunny and nice breeze. We wanted to hunt one area, but couldn't get to it, got a bunch of rain that turned the road into grease. So we hunted another section of the ranch. We saw quite a few birds, but most were really wild, wouldn't hold point. But we did manage to get some to hold. Rick got one, Jim and Teresa didn't connect. I was able to limit. I was using my new 28ga Dickinson. Nice handling gun and an easy carry, I must say that I was impressed with the old girl.

Here's my birds and the Dickinson:



Here's Raina. She really did well. Had some nice points, held the birds (the ones we got!) and worked very well. I was really happy with her!



Going to go out again, so we'll see how we fair.

Best!

Greg

Amarillo Gun Club's favorite Curmudgeon Joe Lane Wood working on a limit of doves with his Webley & Scott....and I didn't have to give him any shooting lessons. I had to include one good gun in this, hence the 16 ga. 21

Hey all, went out again today, much warmer than yesterday (in the 80's) Didn't see as many grouse as yesterday, but did see a lot more young pheasants. It was a good day for me, I was able to limit out ( I managed a double on one group, happy with that!) and my 14 year old daughter Teresa, got her first bird hunting. I was very proud of her, one shot (the only one of the day) and one bird. Raina did very well today, nice points and held the birds more often than not.

Anyway, here's the crew:

Rick Timmers:



My Son Jim and Teresa:



Teresa and her first bird. She was using a 20ga Condor Youth O/U:



My birds, I was using my Charles Hellis 16b:



And......Raina:



Best!
