you could honestly fill in for johnny knoxsville

nice bird...

Seems like I've heard you say that about some other people on here...lol


It was a nice bird. Thanks! Most of my experience is with farm raised birds on the east coast. These wild ones are a whole different ball game. They take off so much faster it's unbelievable. Shot that one twice before he hit the ground.

The only thing I've hunted in my life has been cougars.

LOL!

Any luck? or just the thrill of the hunt?

Is that an over-under?

I forgot how bad my shotgun beats up on me until last weekend. I think i'll buy my uncles 20 gauge for the rabbits, no need to blast them with the 12.

Shotguns still kick like a mule. 2.75" kick harder than my .30-06. 3" get into .40 caliber rifle range, and 3.5 magnums get into elephant gun range, i.e. they don't recommend yo fire more tahn a few, unless you WANT to develop a flinch.

12G Ruger Red Label O/U (26" barrels)


Get back out there YZF. I've been preoccupied with other shit the past few years and haven't gone after anything. Really forgot how much fun it was. Took this last trip with an old friend from high school and had a blast.

There's really no point is tearing up upland birds with 3'' mags IMO. Better suited to ducks and geese etc.... I've had great luck with 2'' shells with 1oz of 7shot for quail and such. pattern beautifully. Used 2 3/4 on this trip though

Spring turkey season is right around the corner :) Perfect for your binelli and some hot 12g loads......

You need an automatic and a squishy butt pad.

Don't let YZ call you a puss. He shoots the same gun as my 85 year old Grandpa :) Pretty plush....

There's really no use for those silly mega magnums......

I've got a Win. 1300 turkey gun, 22" bbl. And I don't need a magazine shortener in this state so it holds 4 rounds, plenty for hunting. Light as hell too, which doesn't help with the recoil.

You should've let me know...I have a dog that loves to hunt, but the pheasant population was a little low around here this season. One of these days I will take him out West or to Iowa, but we get our fill at the game farms in the off season

Oh man, would have bagged out limit every day if we'd had a good dawg.

Instead we had my buddies useless 8mo old lab (you can kinda see in the first pic) just fucking around out there. flushing birds 50 yards ahead of us and for the most part.....

I'll meet you in Iowa next season :)

toughest game in North America imo....I love crow hunting....bring the 10 or go home

I got obsessed with getting one back when I was in high school.

Took FOR EVER!! Couldn't get anywhere near them...

Ended up finally getting one with a scoped .22 ........ Not very sporting but they where driving me NUTS!!

Savy, savy birds indeed.
