I haven't given any thought to the doubles pin this fall as finding one bird of any species has been a bit of a chore let alone two...then on the same covey rise.
Your tale of the Pheasants brought to mind a day at my hunt club last year when I was hunting Quail (alas released birds) with two other PGCA members. All three of our dogs went on point or honoring the others point. I went in and the covey exploded all around me. Two birds fell with two shots and a quick reload of the right barrel caught one more. I instantly fell in love with the borrowed .410 VHE skeet gun and have longed for one ever since.
