 At the top of my bucket list is to kill a limit of doves with fifteen .410 shells. Hey, you know what Arnie Palmer used to preach ............... "Never up, never in". Or, if you don't putt hard enough to get to the hole it'll never drop in. Never stop trying to improve .................never. Hint, keep a look out for the last segment of the story "Full Circle".

All in fun, Geo. Secretly, I was a bit relieved when you said "No". I got to thinking about it and was afraid I had let my bulldog mouth overload my hummingbird ---. Gil has seen me shoot .................... and miss, and miss, and miss, ad nauseam.

I was too busy missing to notice any of your misses...  Gil

What I know about hitting doves might fill a few lines. What I don't know about hitting woodcock would fill volumes.

Guys, I hate to say that I will miss the dove opener this year. I am recovering from C4-C5 fusion and in a hard collar until October 1 at least. My body surfing days are officially over. My hunting companions are sending me photos of the doves feeding in our field and it is painful not to be a part of the action this year. Someone shoot a limit for me.

...I found a DT 625 with 28" barrels... Never knew or heard of Browning making a 625, or any of the Citori-based o/u's, with double triggers. JR I am talking about sxs Beretta guns. And I picked up the 625 today and it is very good working condition. Got some scratches and such, but still a fine gun. I shot it at the pattern board and it shoots true to the rib, though it's f/m and patterns were very tight. It doesn't have enough drop to fit me without some sort of adjusting, so I will be using the 425 on the opener. Good luck to all the dove hunters.

I think I'm safe now because I've reached the age where I'm not getting better at anything at all (laughing quietly to myself...)

Yes, best wishes from me too, Owen. Hoping the surgery was 100% successful.

Go anyway Owen, without gun and gear, and enjoy the experience if not the shooting. Be in amongst 'em... JR
Be strong, be of good courage.
God bless America, long live the Republic.
