Default New Member from Michigan

My name is Carl Holbrook and live near Manistique in the UP of Michigan.
I'm in my mid-eighties so I'm not as active as some of the other members. I have hunted birds--mostly grouse all of my adult life and still manages to get in the brush several times each season.

If I can ever learn to post pictures I will be listing several VH Parker 12 gauge shotguns for sale. I've enjoyed having them but it is now time for them to find a new home.

Hi Carl!

There is a sizable contingent of PCGA members in southern and central Michigan. Also, I know of at least on in Calumet in the U.P. Many of us participate in the U.P. SxS Classic in Channing MI every June. I understand that this year's event may be on hold but somehow I'm sure we'll all get together.

Mark
