Garry, I too, am a fan of open chokes. I am also mostly an upland bird hunter who occasionaly shoots sporting clays. I'd shoot more but there are no courses close to me.
I think the best chokes for me would be cyl/mod on grouse, and I have several Parkers that letter with that configuration. I also shoot several hammer guns choked cyl/full.
Certainly, late season in South Dakota has me shooting tighter chokes, but actually most of the birds killed are in cyl bore range.
I grew up hunting grouse and woodcock exclusively, but if I had grown up on the prairie, Iam sure I would prefer tighter chokes, and I have yet to sit in a duck blind. That being said, I often grab tight choked guns and dont worry about it, and dont mess with spreaders either.
