The hammers starting dropping in Virginia in April and we finished strong on Last Man Standing Day in Maine on June 5, another Grand Spring Hunt in the books. Birds gobbled the last day like it was the season opener. Hens with broods are showing nicely. Moose, whitetails, grouse, coyote and woodcock made occasional guest appearances. We love our Parker Hammerguns and we love hunting wild turkey! Looking forward to turkey dogging in the fall! Congratulations to all who ventured afield with a Parker! JW

Our 6th and final season ended last Tuesday. I spent 5 days out of 7 of hunting each for the 4th, 5th, and 6th season on my 32 acres. No birds ventured into my sight for those 15 days accept for one hen. I will have to find some spring turkey hunting properties for next year besides my own. I was at least blessed with one dandy gobbler. I think I jinxed myself because I left my Charles Daly home the last three weeks and took my beretta pintail afield.

Great pictures Jim.

I'll be back in the game with my 10 bore D Lifter next spring. Too much crap going on this May and I only got out for the opener weekend in VT but she's having her barrels prettied up at Breck's right now so she'll be looking nice for the 2022 opener.

A terrible season for me. No birds heard on the farm at all, and none close enough to call to (but, I heard shooting every morning I went). Ventured into another county but the gobblers were all off the property.

I can't wait until the Fall season. My favorite turkey hunting. I finally patterned my GH 32" 10 gauge this Spring and it throws far too open a pattern for turkeys, so it's now my "new" waterfowl gun. The good news is that now I have an even better excuse to search for a Parker turkey gun...hopefully a nice lifter model.

Dream on...
