I hope you do Rich. I was going to wish you luck but I know you don't need it. You're one of the luckiest guys I know . . . . so instead, I'll wish you skill

Hey Dave, I got it all fixed up just for you!

Dean Romig · 10-19-2009, 09:02 PM

I even tested it for you . . .

. . . please excuse the company of ground-swatters

Autumn Daze · 10-19-2009, 09:10 PM

Number one Mr. Romig ya didn,t even pre-drill the holes for the screws so now its split the other way

Number two Mr. Romig I already told ya that thing is wood stove fodder THIS weekend

Number three Maybe we should just CAREFULLY remove your 28ga. from said rack and just burn it.... ground swatters and all

There ya' go - looking a gift horse in the mouth. Honestly, I don't know why I even try...

Autumn Daze · 10-19-2009, 10:07 PM

Birds are scarce in my Grouse camp....we need to talk to Jay Gardner and his 100 bird weekend

The VHE 28 saw distinguished service. I shot twice and got one Woodcock, probably the last of the Woodcock this season.

I will try again this weekend but this afternoon its the GHE 20 skeet gun and Pheasants.

Grouse are much harder to find in my hunting area too. I think it's time to sit the Goshawks and Barred Owls down and have a serious discussion with them about focusing their dietary needs on rodents and songbirds until further notice - after all, we can't all eat grouse now can we?
The woodcock flights haven't come down yet, that I've been aware of, of course they may pass through my area during the workweek without me ever knowing it . . .

Pheasants this afternoon?

What about your busy work load?
As for this weekend, they're calling for rain Thurs, Fri, Sat, and Sun.
However, the good Grouse Camp is only 9 days away.

Dean -walked the woods with my wife this weekend just south of the Kingdom in Lisbon. Didn't kick up a single bird during a 50+ acre ramble until, when leaving closing the gate with the 16 0 frame locked safe in the truck, the nicest Mr.Ruff I've seen all season flushed twenty feet away. I should sit by the gate more often...seriously, the owl (and skunk) activity was at a ten year peak this past summer and early fall.
