You and me both, Charlie. I found lots of sign of a big buck, but I only hunted for a couple of hours on two days. It's hard to go deer hunting with two dogs wanting to chase after birds...and it's a lot easier carrying birds out in my vest than dragging a buck out by myself.

I thought I'd add a couple photos of the guns I used this week. The VHE is a 1912 gun that went to the west coast, destined for ducks(?), but I carried it thinking I might run into an Iowa pheasant. The BHE is a 1924 16 gauge that was a gift for a banker in Binghamton, NY. The 20 gauge is my Kentucky ordered DHE quail gun. It was made in 1918 for a field trial man as the last pandemic was in full swing (irony?).
