Most of my feathered birds this season have come at tower shoots . Got a couple walk up deals yet this season and a couple more tower shoots . But I’m only 61 but walking isn’t as easy now as it once was . I did use two different 10’s at tower shoots this year a really nice DH and the Grade 2 I got at Hausemanns that’s been restocked and an added fluid steel barrel . Plan on a 16 this Sunday for the tower shoot but on 1/14 I’m vacillating between a 10 or a 12 for the last tower shoot of the season . Hopefully I’ll get in on a rabbit deal or two before I go overseas in February . But as the old saying goes “if I never kill another bird/animal I’ve already done enough for a lifetime”
