Default First Dove Hunt

This opening hunt was special for me, because it was my son's first time shooting birds. He got three with a Parker 16 gauge GH

In other good news, looks like we have another hunt coming up this Sunday. Harry will probably use the same gun, but I am switching to a lighter 16.

I'm sure you -- and he -- will remember that hunt...and I'm sure you'll write some things down about it to help you recall.

Very nice ! It’s almost like a breath of fresh air to see a person Harry’s age wanting to go shoot , fish and hunt rather than playing video games !

That's really cool Mills! Nothing better than watching your kids experience their first hunt and first bird. That's quite the gun he has, he must be a proud hunter. My dad started me on dove and quail with a little H&R 20. I still have it. When I look at it, I think about my days spent with dad in the field. Seems like it was just yesterday when I watched my first bird drop!
