This was the first time my wife ever went hunting. She happened to be off the same day as I was and she said she wanted to go with. So I picked her out a shotgun that fit her and we went. She missed her first one but made a great shot on this one.

Yep, LT 20ga. None of my O/U's fit her. I mostly use my CZ wingshooter 28ga. Very rarely do I miss with that gun.

Battue- My neighbor is from the Pittsburgh area and has told me about how he like to hunt pheasants there. Your pics are making me think that if not this year, then next I'll talk him into a road trip! Congrats on the birds!

Thanks,

But it's what we have and it isn't N.D.

Unfortunately. grin

Addition: Conrats to both Hank and you on your first team Bird.

After I posted yesterday I looked up the dates and noticed that pheasant is open in PA until 2/28. And the 7 day license is only $32. We have some tentative plans to maybe give it a go after the New Year. He's most familiar with places in WMU 2A, but I'm going to do some research on places in 2B as well since it's close and open to hens and roosters. I'll let you know if things pan out.

They have one Christmas stocking. Hit it right and you can have fun. Christmas stocking will be almost exclusively hens.

Then it depends on which GL you are hunting, how big it is and how much pressure it gets. Wrong one and it isn't much fun.

If he is familiar with what is going on in 2A, it may be great.

Guaranteed bet, if you don't have all your Pheasants in a row would be a nice hunting preserve.

Do Squirrels count? I'm seeing more than ever. Big Grays with fat tails. May have to give them a go with the .22lr when they come back in.

Pointer, great pics. You're sexy as ever but that dog of yours looks like schit.

Get a lab.

Anybody that shoots squirrel with a shotgun is from another continent.

Guy I knew used to say he would rather have a sister that works in a whorehouse, than a brother that shoots Squirrels with a shotgun.

I was hunting some public land on the east coast and a pack of not-white people were floored that I was packing a 10/22.

Anyway, grab 'em by the pussy...
