Kelly,

While working the Parker both at Pheasants forever convention in Madison Wisconsin I did a survey. after determining the person was a Parker owner I asked the question, do you drink scotch? Without exception they all answered yes, Ok it appears at face value to be a Wisconsin thing. My point is anyone that limits themselves to two shots typically is not someone that break's game laws. They have already made the decision that 2 birds with 2 shots is the highest achievement. I was just wondering what your observations have been, The members of this organization in my experience is, that they are conservationist first, gentlemen, historians and good guy's with a scotch problem.

OK, I get what your asking now. YES, in my experience most double shooters always seem to be true sportsmen for the most part and law abiding. Now that DOES NOT imply that pump or auto loaders are not....!! But for some reason there is a true connection with many strict double shooters conservationism and following the game laws..?? I find most upland game hunters in general are law abiding. I have no opinion as for why this is.

All the best
Kelly

Kelly,

I bet you also find the same true about men and women that use a fly rod.

What I find is that women are just as talented at fly fishing as men. They also shoot better.
