Very nice pictures and guns, thanks. One question---the corn field you are hunting appears very small----in my area of central NY geese and ducks avoid all but large fields say over 200 acres----I am amazed you can get birds to decoy into what appears to be a very small field-------or where you pass shooting birds with the big guns??

Craig, in southeastern New Hampshire the geese don't have a choice. There are only a handful of farms left and most of the corn fields are small scattered here and there within a few miles of the herd.

If one of those Parker guys were shooting an eight, they would have to keep it a secret. It's not legal ya know. When my eights go out to play, I have to keep them under wraps also.

How common are straight stocks on a 10 ga? I had never seen one before.
