Mudbat is perfect, works perfectly with the videos of the birds doing their dance to "Tequila". We even adapted a song from the B52s. Instead of "Love Shack" you use "Mud Bat" and a host of other changed lyrics.

Improvise and adapt.

"I got me a Parker it's a 30 inch 20, so come on and bring your shot shell money! For the mud bat it's a little old bird that we can hunt togetheeeerrrr. Mud bat baaaabyyyyy. Mud bat baby!!

Muds little bat, that's where it's at. Muds little bat, that's where it's at. Mud bat baby!!"

My friend Mike probably spazzed out because four of us were shooting at the Rock today and we got him in a headlock. One gent has very extensive grouse and woodcock hunting experience both in PA and NY, and the other two have been small game hunters since Hector was a pup. Mike was out touring the courses and we chided him, how none of us had ever heard that derogatory Mudbat term used to refer to the fine American game bird. Then after shooting we returned to the clubhouse for coffee and Mike was nowhere to be seen, probably out composing his retort and lyrics.

He continues to reveal new talents as time goes on. We anxiously await his next creation.

Frank, I was just out looking for whistle-pigs. 🤪

Daniel, never know what kind of Frankenstein’s monster can be concocted.

The lovingly used term of mudbat is current, funky-fresh, a modern marvel of lexicon!! Come from the dark side, embrace the mudbat!! 🤣🤣🤣

I also load 12 gauge using RST 2 1/2" hulls with 1/2 ounce of shot. For those, I use the CB6100-12 neon green wad, same card wad and same powder load: 14 grains of XL. Speed a little lower tho.

And Daryl, if you'd like to try a few of those loads, I'll send you some of those Circle Fly card wads. Bruce too.

Also Daryl, I load using RST 20 gauge 2 1/2" hulls using Alliant 20/28 powder in 1/2 ounce in that lovely and svelte 20 gauge Sterlingworth you sold me at Ernie's a couple years ago. Rest assured, she has a good home. And she's still just as pretty.

Bill: Thanks for the info. Something else for me to play with....

And all the while we thought we had heard the height of disrespect for those "little russet fellers" when we first read the term "bogsucker"...
