If your man enough to shoot a ten gauge for sporting clays than you can be man enough to give up a couple of birds. you are using more shot than anybody else after all.
I should get a bird (point) for every pound heavier gun than you are shooting!

Mark you know as well as I do that a heavier gun swings better than a light one so that's another reason you should give up a bird what with a 10 lb 10ga VS my 5 1/2lb 28.

Mills we need to keep track someway so the winner can buy beer.....unless your volunteering

Mark, I like the idea of the "gun switch" challenge, but I know you've at least got a 36in 10ga Parker, and that might not even be the longest or heaviest gun you could bring. We've had a lot of cool ideas thrown out here for "events", I hope someone is keeping track so we can remember them all come Wednesday.

Some of us Southern Boy are "tuning up" on Wed afternoon. It is sometimes refereed to as a home course advantage!
Mark
You have it backwards, as you are known to do. We should get a bird for every pound lighter and inch shorter our little whippy guns are to yours.
Oh, the hell with it-Rich is buying the beer!!

Rich and David,

I shoot low gun. By the end of the course those 9 to 12 pound 10 gauges get mighty hard to raise to my shoulder...
