[SXS OHIO]

We arrived in Felch MI about 7 PM Saturday 19th October 2019. Got out hunting on Sunday, it was to be my best day of gunning. Moved 26 birds and bagged 4 with 6 shots only missed one bird outright and took two hits to bring down one of the heavy armored f16-s big 2nd season bird. With shooting skill like that you tend to puff up a little.....well all that makes for bad gun mount and your shooting sucks for the next few days, in my case the rest of the week....)-: The truth is some days you just get birds in the open or you get lucky or both. The rest of my week saw few open shots....there is always a tree!! Following my setter in prime habitat like we hunted in puts a smile on my face, even if the birds beat your best work! The picture of me with my cowboy hat was a rain day, I'm pretty wet....that hat is a oil treated hat and with the big brim kept my glasses free of rain drops. Yes that is my made for me CSMC Fox XE-16 out in the rain with me, its my rain gun! Back at the cabin I set her behind the wood stove for a bit, got her warm and dry then cleaned her up just like new. I took 3 other shotguns on this hunt but only used the little Fox made for me. I had her built with two sets of barrels, one for the north woods and one set for the western prairie and roosters. SXS Ohio
