Default First Blood

Over the last two weekends I have enjoyed using a couple of guns to hunt with that I have just used on clays or not at all.

Last weekend while hunting with Rich Flanders, Dave Miles and Kurt Densmore the "Holywood" gun a GHE 16 skeet that has accounted for numerous clay targets brought down it's first and second Pheasants. While this gun is a pure joy to shoot clays with it's a tad heavy to me as a field gun. On this outing as I tired of carrying the Holywood gun I traded it for an 0 frame 16 hammer gun. This is a whole different element for me as I had never hunted with a hammer gun befor. I tried it with the hammers cocked and the gun open but prefered to carry it closed and to cock the hammers when I walked in on a point.

Today Gunner, Crazy Daisy, a VHE 20ga skeet gun and I went Pheasant hunting. Great teamwork from the dogs and the fast handeling VHE accounted for this guns first head of game a nice Rooster as it flushed from behind a small pine tree. This was the first time I have taken this gun out since I aquired it and it won't be the last.
