I think I'd have an easier time selling one of my kidneys.
Don’t make the mistake I’ve made to many times to remember ! And that’s putting a price on something when you’re really not worried about selling and then after the fact you wished you hadn’t priced it

Jay didn’t you buy a 32” 20 a couple years back in Sanford that was broken in the wrist . I wanna say it was a 32” 1 frame DHE ?

Craig that wasn't me. I did find my 32" 20 DHE on GB(0 frame), it was well used with a few dents in the barrels. Breck Gorman fixed and refinished the barrels and Brian Dudley cleaned everything else and refinished the wood. The Parker is definitely a long legged beauty now!

One year at the Southern, I did by a 30" 20ga VH straight stocked choked F/F with stock specifications and a request for 2 7/8 chambers, also on an 0 frame. This has turned into my go to Parker for so many things...

Hello Everyone,

I just wanted to get a quick note out about my shoot on Sunday May 10th at PeaceDale Shooting Preserve in South Kingstown, RI. When I schedule this shoot, I didn't realize that this Sunday was Mother's Day.

I wanted to get a sense from those attending(or not attending) if there was a big enough conflict to try and figure out another time.

Thank you,
Jay

We'll only go to the Addieville leg of the two-day 'event'.

Thanks for the feedback so far. Last year was during Memorial weekend. One of the challenges is finding the right time and venue availability.

There isn't much room to change things as the following weekend is a college graduation and there are already events at PeaceDale. The next weekend is Memorial weekend. It's a challenge to find a good time, but I will certainly do better next year.

Please continue to let me know what works or doesn't work for this event so I can get an accurate account on numbers.

Thank you,
Jay
