Did you stop in at the Wild Hare Cafe? (If it’s still there?)

Let's just say it was obvious I hadn't shot any flyers in quite awhile....

Stopped on the way home to pay my respects to Capt. Bogardus and left a token of admiration.
I still have 3/4 of a case (that's 500 for your youngsters) of those Super Pigeon loads and 1/2 case of the Federal Pigeon loads. The Federals were always my favorite but the WW were right behind them.

The 3 1/4 DE are not that bad when shot in a 8+lb gun. The Federals were softer than the WW. You never notice it when that trap opens and the bird is making a hasty exit to the fence.
