20's and snowflakes at the Rock

[Cold Spring]

Mike and I shot Parker 20's today along with mutual friend Ross with his Lefever 12 bore. I also did some extra birds with my 16g Model 21 that's been hibernating in the back of the safe for about 3 years now. The Winny is a two-barrel set and her WS-1 and 2 Skeet bored barrel was in place today. Weather was cold and overcast, just a few light flurries but then a squall on the last half of the 100 bird course with lots of big wet snowflakes that made it hard to see/focus on the clays. So much for early Spring. All three of us struggled on some of the last stations but as they say, any day shooting can be good. Hot java and goodies also hit the spot after getting back to the lodge. I just finished drying and cleaning my guns. Here are some random pics of our outing.
