I routinely take 5 or 6 guns on my trip to SD and this year will be a reunion of sorts. My father bought a 20ga. Stevens M311A which I grew up with mostly shooting rabbits, doves and squirrels. It's been 40+ years since she has seen front line action so I will be starting opening day at noon with her.

I shot my GH 16 1 frame with original 26" barrels for the first dove hunt.

Well I used a pretty nice VH 16 0 frame 26” I got from a member here for the dove opener in the Old Dominion . If I’m able to go out the opening morning of deer season in the Old Dominion I’ll most likely carry along the Parker Grade 0 10 gauge four frame with the 34” barrels that had the rib relaid loaded with home cast/loaded slugs and of course I’ll have a rifle up the tree with the shotgun and the rifle will most likely be a rather nice Mannlicher Schoenauer MC 30-06 carbine . Although I have my eye on another Mannlicher Schoenauer Model 1903 6.5x54 and if I acquire that in time to work up a load before deer season the rifle choice could change .

I’ll be shooting a Cogswell & Harrison, 16 bore, made in 1886 on the Scott and Baker patent action, M/F. I have a flat of RST 2.5 in #5, 6, 8. Can’t wait!

Father and son
Opening Day was yesterday- Saturday- for Connecticut ducks.
My son and I both used Parker Repro Steel Shot Specials. Identical except for mine was a single trigger and his double. I shot a hen Woodie and Henry got his first duck- a Drake Woodie. He is going to have it mounted. Gorgeous bird. I was really glad to have been there to witness the event. Very special. |

i checked one of my farm ditches this afternoon. The beavers have a dam in it again this year. I flushed about a 100 wood ducks and several mallards off it. Saturday morning should be interesting with my vhe 12 ga with 34" barrels.
