Mike: Why not shoot a few with #6 and then a few with #9 and keep the birds separate. You may see a difference when you shoot them and when you clean them. I often have found only one #6 against the breast bone. I just recently cooked the last bag from last year and did not find a shot while eating birds this year. I kind of like not ingesting lead.Let us know what you think when you return home. Enjoy.

Charlie, it's great that you are involving the kids in the Shoot. Hopefully some of them will become lifelong hunters and shooters and maybe even carry a Parker gun. Good job!

Thanks for the sentiments Charlie. I know I'm going to love it. Hanging out with John is worth the trip.

I hunted a cornfield solo last weekend. Dove hunting a good size field solo isn't the best setup but I enjoyed a sunrise, a flock of about 60 Canadian geese and a few doves too! On Saturday I carried my 20 GHE, but forgot my camera. Monday I took my little Grade 4 Ithaca 20 and my camera! Here is a shot of the 1st bird of the morning.
