Sure. OK, wink-wink:cool:

Mr. Allgood doesn't look too happy sitting at the head of the table.:eek:

Last time I went was in 2010 and we took our own guns. I want to go back badly, but it wouldn't be the same without being able to use my own gun(s). Both times I went I shot my Beretta 687 SP II Sporting 20 ga. It is a special little gun to me, now. Using a lodge's jammamatic just wouldn't be the same, somehow. Some of our guys let the bird boys clean their guns at the end of the day. I did not. I clean my own guns.

Last trip I shot for three hours each morning and three each afternoon. I averaged over 1000 doves killed a day, with a total of 4350 for four days (8 three-hour shoots). I had no recoil related issues at all. IMO, after seeing many guys shooting (there were 17 of us at the River Lodge with Luis Sier), recoil related problems are much more related to poor gun mounts than the guns themselves or the loads. A friend of mine who was shooting a 20 ga. Browning was still bleeding through his shirt at church on Sunday, after we had arrived back in the states on Thursday.

That would be for owl hunting. Owls hoot, pigeons coo.

I’d rather have had something other than the Beretta 686’s but the Benelli Montefeltro felt okay and I’m no great fan of semi auto’s .

My bird guy Marcel and myself !

Mr. Hall and his man Sergio !

Dang Jim looks a little over heated. Where's that wine bottle with the "water" in it :whistle:

You know this John is John :rotf::rotf::rotf:

We shot today for about two hours it was quite warm and humid ,

I’ve gone down in our summer which is their winter and even then got hot towards the end of the day
