Default Kansas January

Russ Lindsay, Todd Kaltenbach and me. Makes the winter shorter.

We ran into a couple flocks of turkeys that each had about 75-100 birds. You might see that in the distant photo.

Hunting there is cheating, not enough snow and below zero temps.

While I'm no expert at hunting with my hammerguns I would think that to walk around with the hammers cocked and the gun closed would be unsafe as a trip, brush ect could cause the gun to disscharge. I have used mine with the hammers cocked and the gun open but that was problematic as the shells would fall out. I hunt with a pointing dog so when Gunner or Daisy would lock up I'd cock the gun and move in for the flush. I have always hunted alone while using a hammer gun also.

I'm guessing that Statue of Liberty was erected by the Boy Scouts about 1950.
