Default A Vixen gets the Game
43-degrees this morning here in PA, the leaves are turning and thoughts get to hunting. Our grouse season starts in a few weeks and my 20 bore straight grip Sterlingworth has already moved up to the front of the safe. Her name is Vixen and she's a 1913 Fox who's served me well for many years. 28" tubes and bored Mod & I-Mod. I was out in the mountains today, checked the cabin and remembered this Red Letter scene on its steps ..... a daily limit of two birds taken nearby that morning.

Vixen is a really foxy girl, Frank.

What a nice piece of wood on that little gun.
