Default Pheasant in Pa

Me and my son Shane were able to slip out for an hrs worth of hunting pheasant on Saturday morning. The Parker took 2 pheasant while Shane was able to score a dove. Was a good morning to be out before it started making wet

Stan,
Great pictures, that shotgun is beautiful, thanks for such great pictures. I was driving back home from an estimate with an employee the other day and a rooster pheasant was on the shoulder of the road. That was quite a shock, not many birds around this far north. I wonder if there was a guy training birds nearby.

A brace of pheasants with a Lifter -- it doesn't get much better than that.

Craig,
I haven't had the big 8 recently, may have to do that in the near future, this 16 does carry much easier though.

Thanks for the compliments on the pictures, I knew I forgot something, I forgot too include the Paper RST shells that were used.

Those light 16 loads were surprisingly effective.

Stan I got the okay from John to bring my PH 8 to Prospect Hall for a tower shoot this year as long as it’s a secondary gun and don’t shoot over a box of shells out of it .
