The Swamp Angel is out of commission for the season. Had to shoot the Super Fox this morning. It works.....

So what happened to the Swamp Angel?

Destry L. Hoffard 11-27-2014 02:13 PM

She's been letting go both barrels at once. Figured I'd better send her off to Brian for some exploratory surgery.

Looks like that Super not only works, but works well. Nice haul!

Nice work! There are a few thousand mallards within 1/2 mile of my barley stubble yet they are not coming in??? Perhaps when it gets colder. Unseasonably warm here. Will keep you posted and the 32" DHE is waiting anxiously. -plc-

My season is off slow but lots of time for it to pick up. Three hunts and up to one bird.

Destry,

I believe in the waterfowling realm, they call that an EPIPHANY???

In the biblical sense, you have seen "the Philadelphia light" and witnessed first hand the bounty that awaits!
Over at N 18th and Windram, we call it: TRADING UP!!

It warms the cockles of our hearts that you have finally crossed-over into the promised land.

And never, ever forget those fateful words the angel whispered to Bertram Becker on the night he completed his first Super Fox:

"Bore it......and they will come........." :bigbye:

Hah! I don't know as I'd call it a conversion. The Swamp Angel is still the finest waterfowling shotgun I've ever fired. The old girl and I have been together a long while now. But when she got sick I reached for what I knew was a good one. I hunted four days over the holiday weekend killing limits three of those days and several birds the off day. The big Fox is certainly a murderous fowling piece without a doubt. Them boys in Philly knew how to make em......
