My Buddy Rich and I headed out yesterday for the Pa. Pheasant opener but really had little intention on hunting Mr. Ringneck unless we ran into one ,ours are all stocked birds ! These we're what we were after ! We headed afield about 8:00 AM and circled below some big open fields full of Pheasant Hunters , I didn't take Chip as he is nearly stone deaf and I didn't want him confused if there was a lot of shooting in the fields ! Rich brought his Short Hair ,Sam ,he is quite an accomplished hunter although nearly 14 years old and we ended up at 9:30 with two Pa. limits of Woodcock ! Rich was carrying his little Fox Model B 410 ,Vent Rib gun ,an early gun with the nice engraving on the bottom of the receiver of the Geese flushing off of the pond ,and I was carrying the GH 20 Ga. Damascus Barreled gun ! I brought all the birds home and cleaned them thoroughly and soaked them in Salt water for the afternoon and last evening , made three Ramikens of my almost World Famous , " Woodcock Pate' " By the way have any of you fellows tried this recipe yet ? DELICIOUS ! Good Hunting to You All ! Russ

Mills ,This is the little gun ,that sold recently on our site and I bemoaned that all the good ones sold while I was at work ,then I checked the next morning and seems the first buyer changed his mind and it had already sold the second time again ,I bawled over that ,then I received a PM from Scott about a week later that the gun had been returned as the top rib was loose at the end ,so I bought Her any way and drove it down to Jerry Andrews place in WV. and he repaired the Top Rib and refinished the Damascus barrels and She seems as good as new !

Congratulations, Russ. Those are two nice leashes of woodcock.
I just came back a 1/2 hour ago from a walk down to the river with Woody. He pointed one and another woodcock wild flushed in the first couple of hundred yards along the river bank. We came back to the house. Tomorrow morning, when I know there won't be any bow hunters active along the river, we'll go back. So, now to see what 16 gauge hulls holding what size shot is available in the ammo locker.
