I will be up north of Jerry’s for a couple weeks this fall and will stop by to see old friends. I hunted some of the same places that Jerry now hunts when I lived up in Grand Forks .

You know that at Jerry’s you will see folks with Purdeys and a bunch of others but lots of times the experienced hunters are carrying some well worn Parkers. Jerry certainly does. That brush does not keep a gun looking new for long. In a lot of ways there is nothing wrong with carrying a gun that looks like it has had a lot of use. I still carry the same 16 ga PHE there that I did many years ago .

On chokes, if you have a close crossing bird , pull ahead and shoot the head and neck . It is the same size as a clay pigeon . If in dense brush , you need all the shot you can to get through the branches.
