Mr. Rutledge,
Nice work on the snipe, good shooting for certain. I've always said that the snipe was the hardest to hit of any American gamebird.
Boys,
If you want to learn about snipe shooting with and without dogs pick up a reprint of Twenty Years Snipe Shooting by J.J. Pringle. The original is the rarest of all American sporting books, I've never physically seen a copy.
