Yeah Mike what about those pictures???
Mills is that a skeet gun your using?
Randy come to Drakes in April and shoot some clays with us. You'll be glad you did.

On a side note the trainer sent me pictures of Ike's first point on Quail. I have a good feeling about him. He will come home right after the Southern.

Always love to hear about the dog work but tell us more about the guns in your pic.

Funny you should say that ! In 1991 I went to Montana in early November most of the time it was 2-8 degrees and to be honest it felt no where near that cold . The Monday after I returned was the first day of deer season it was 35 degrees that morning and I thought I was gonna freeze to death . Humidity in VA vs MT is a big difference .

Daryl, I shot my tight choked 20ga DHE with 30" tubes. I believe that gun is choked Full and Full or close to it. I know I hit the extremes with it this weekend, snap shooting a bird right in front of my face that we had to throw in the pond because there was nothing left of it. In the afternoon I made a shot with the left barrel that's probably the longest shot I've ever made on a quail.

Rich, I'm working on your pictures, don't worry.
