Did a Pheasent partridge pigeon deal at Prospect Hall yesterday . Carried a VH 12 gauge 2 frame two barrel set that had initially been shipped to someone not to far from where I live . And over the course of years the wrist and cheeks on this gun hadn’t had the easiest life . So I decided a couple months ago to have Danny Patton make it more shall we say shootable . Shot the gun for THE first time at Schraders Wednesday then Friday at The Flying Rabbit so I decided to try it at Prospect Hall yesterday and it did admirably . Sorry I took no pics of the gun :banghead: But did take some pics of Prospect Hall and the end result . Failed to mention the gun has 28 and 32 inch barrels of course I used the 32 inch set all three times , it’s kinda ugly but it just might be my new pigeon/clays gun and the pair of actual DH pigeon guns can stay in the safe !!!

The pheasents flew well and the pigeons towered yesterday but Mr. Allgood’s as he calls them “Red Legged Partridge” didn’t fly so well so not many killed . The partridge yesterday would take off then almost immediately dive in the unsafe zone . So by the end of the shoot the little devils were walking around looking at you . I went so far as trying to catch a couple alive but to no avail . I’m sure the local fox population was well fed last night and walk ups today were most likely decent !

So between this shoot and the one last month I’m set for Pheasent Jambalya for 12/21/21 luncheon at the shop :whistle:

I've mixed pheasant and partridge together into a giant "pheasant pot pie" and it is amazing. Feeds about 6 guys per pie. May do jambalya next time.
