Rasawek 12/7/21
 

Did a hunt at Rasawek today in Goochland VA . Danny Patton , Craig Jacobs , Jimmy Hall and myself as well as three four legged little brown dogs ! We were the only group there today . Got into plenty birds and had some nice shooting . Some nice guns as well , a DHE 28 , GHE 20 , Sterlingworth 16 and a VH 28 .

And a few more .

God, I wish you guys would get a real camera. :nono: It's painful.

Seriously, that looks to be some nice Quail habitat. Just thinking back to Sunday with you and Jimmy, that was the first time I've had the pleasure of hunting with 3 guys shooting 28ga. Parkers. And just to think we didn't get one sideways picture. Darn!:banghead:

That’s my old I Phone . I don’t wanna get a new one :rotf: Well if we make it back up in January perhaps we can get some gun pics .

I failed to mention Rasawek made us a stir fry quail deal on a bed of rice . It was rather tastey .

Craig,

Looks like a great day, my neck is starting to get stiff:)

Have you tried to edit your pictures before uploading to your post? I just select edit on my iPhone or iPad, adjust the color or lighting, upload and post, it works every time. You do not have to adjust size or do any thing complicated, just a small adjustment will do the trick.

Thanks for sharing though, I enjoy pictures,

Helpful hint--I phone pics work great! All you have to do is take the time to edit each pic just a bit and save them. Then when you attach them to your thread the pics should be properly orientated. You don't have to do nothing more than select "edit", adjust the brightness or some meaningless edit, then save.

The other two forums I frequent the same pictures come out straight . And they’re straight on my phone . But in this place they seem to for lack of a better term download skewed .

Craig,
hopefully you're alright with me flipping the pics, a few didn't cooperate for me,
Stan

Stan I’m always okay with you !

Rasawek is one of my favorite places anywhere. I met one of the original owners when he was late in his long struggle with cancer. Doug Deats. Doug was an amazing dog trainer and an even more amazing man. The place he helped create (Rasawek) is hallowed ground for me. His partner, Don Parks, and the rest of the crew at Rasawek are wonderful people. I'll be there with my 20 gauge GHE in March.

So you know Aubrey the gentleman with the German Shorthairs ? I usually request him or the lady from Charles City County that has the big English Setters . I’ve yet to carry anything except the same old VH 28 gauge 0 frame with 26” full and full barrels . Kinda like the 28 because it seems lighter than any of my 20’s and two boxes of 28 ammo is a bit lighter than two boxes of 20 . I was at Old Forge today shooting clays and got four boxes of 410 2 1/2” #7 1/2 . I e got an Iver Johnson Hercules 410 26” F&F I might just take in January . But I might use 410 3” instead of the short ones lols !

Yes, I know Aubrey. The Gal with the setters is probably Freda. Aubrey and Freda always help out with a fund raiser I work on at Rasawek. I’d love to find a 28 Parker. I’ve heard they are hard to find and harder to convince someone to sell them.

She’s I think the only one I’ve seen there with setters . Aubrey actually doesn’t live to far from me . He’s in Louisa county and I’m in the adjacent county Orange .
