Default NH Waterfowl - A good days take
Six geese (I lost count), one banded, all taken with Short Ten's, two Parkers (1 hammer gun and 1 hammerless) and my Lefever 10ga.



An excellent blind retrieve on a hen wood duck (1 of 5 taken by the three of us today). He is really responding well to voice commands this year



Todays tally was brought to you by Frank Cronin, Scott Kittredge and myself.

That's right six geese, I lost count when they fell like rain.

You're right Pete, it was a great day! Couldn't ask for better weather and great shooting.

Here's a few additional pictures.

While sitting in the blind, all morning we saw quite a few crows in the sky. After the goose hunt, we figured it was also a good day to give those crows some Parker and Lefever medicine too....

We didn't manage much luck busting crows although Scott did hit one while we were walking out from our Woodie hunt.

All 20 gauges were used. Scott was equipped with his 30" VH, I used my LC Field grade with 30" barrels ejector gun, and Pete used a 20 gauge with a unusual barrel orientation....

Been a long time since I shot a duck with my Miroku Charles Daly 20 ga o/u. A gun I have had for 32 years. It was a wood duck killing machine back in the day with 1 ounce of lead #6. They are a lot of gun for the money.
