As many rounds as we'll be shooting over the weekend, I'm sure I could dedicate one to the 10ga. I've got a nice 32" DHE that I haven't shot as much as I'd like. Mark, Mills, I'll join you in a round!

How about two or three squads each shooting as a team where each person shoots a different gauge gun? Although I wouldn't want to be the guy shooting a 10 against Mark, as I've seen him swing that 36" 10ga.

I want to see that DHE! My only ejector 10 gauge Parker is a PHE and it doesn't have pretty Damascus barrels. It has those darn fluid steel tubes...

Squads with different guages sounds like fun...good idea Mike. We will have fun despite the naysayers who don't like shooting outside of Deep River.

Mills, a Super Fox is VERY high on my list. It's right up there in the top spots along with a long barreled Parker 20ga, a 16ga Parker Hammer Gun and a Fox Single Barrel Trap Gun.

Mark, sorry to get you excited, it's actually a DH 10ga, no "E". But I'm still going to shoot it that week!

Mike

At least you don't have shells flying out of your gun.


The two Foxes I want are a Super Fox and an early C Grade. The Super Fox has been second on my list next to a Parker 8 for a long time.

A Sterlingworth 16 on the light frame was high on my list, but that one was crossed off this past year. For those of you small bore fans, I highly recommend them. Mine is just a great gun and even has the IC/M chokes

Rich has agreed that we will handicap the Double gun shoot at Drakes.
8&10 ga =-2, 12=O, 16ga =+3, 20ga=+5, 28ga=+10, +2 for a hammergun.
This is modeled after the upcoming habitat shoot in Pa. Hope this works for everyone.

Sounds real good David. Although I hate to admit it, shooting a hammergun is no real handicap to me.
