Set the alarm for 5:00 AM woke up at 5:45 realizing i set my Iphone to PM. Needless to say a late start. The areas I had scoped out had hunters so I cruzed around for the first 1.5 hours. Actually a great way to scout for next week when I can get out when many will be at work.
Around 8:15 i found a small tank that looked promising and tucuked under a mesquite tree. I had promised my wife I would be home by 10:00 so I had 45 minutes to shoot. In my younger days i would have kept shooting and made up an excuse, truck wouldnt start etc. but I have used up all my excuses and my wife has become to wise. Ended up pulling the plug and headed home.

Luck was on my side and I managed to take 11 birds and did make it home in time. Pretty happy considering how the day started.
I took the 1 st Parker I ever bought. A DH with original Vulcan steel barrels made in 1896. I could not have shot any gun better.
