Dean thanks for your posting. I love vintage hunting photographs. I hope others will post some pictures, of their early hunts. When I found this picture last night it brought back lots of memories of my hunts together with my brother.
Many nights we layed in our room and talked for hours about hunting and such. Reading through the Herters catalogue, Fur/Fish/Game, Outdoor Life and others. Sharing what we learned and dreams. Great Memories.
Hunting has been the common bond since we were kids that still assures we get together 5 or 6 times each year.

Charlie yep it's a single 20 gauge made by Sears, if I recall it had a big hammer and a round push button on the side to open. Looking at the boots we were wearing reminds me how good I have it today with my KENETREX. back then I could wear anytime from a size 6 to a 16 . Just put on two pairs socks and another one roll up in the toe. LOL.

This one is over 50 years old. This guy still hunts pheasants, and other birds. He is a better shot these days
