It's trap shooting season. Plan on going to CO, UT & WY state shoots. Becoming the sport of kings................ First, you have to be able to afford the ammo. And NOW............the gas to drive to the shoots !!! I only shoot recreationally. Club right down the road shoots Tuesday nights. Haven't been there once, yet, this year. At least I don't have to worry about wearing my gun out........

I was just asked to shoot in an "old guys" summer trap league! Lol! Guess it's time to dig out the ol Winchester 101 top single, clean the cobwebs out of the barrel and see if I can still hit anything with it.

Took my young cousin fishing this past weekend. He caught his biggest Ky Spot (3.5lbs) and we caught some catfish on catalpa worms. Had a good time.
I’ll have to say, there was a pileated woodpecker hollering and I would listen every time….like I expected a gobble…even though I haven’t heard a turkey in that area since 1989, I still listen for one. Maybe one day.

Early 1st Gen, 34" fixed full with trap rib, stock is not original as I don't use a raised comb. Great 16 yard gun, even better on handicap yardages. Kinda sucks for doubles though... Lol!

Nice gun !!!
I shoot 90% at the 16 and the rest handicap. I've honestly never even tried doubles.

No brainer, there. I can (could) shoot pretty well. But not consistently like what it takes for sponsorships in THAT arena. No way. Have a very good buddy that I shoot with at times. He's in his state's trap shooting hall of fame. Was nationally ceded at one time. Shot the Grand and all those high profile shoots. HE'S sponsored. He didn't pay for ANY of his Kreighofs.

Run Em-----Bob BT-99's are about as bullet proof as a gun comes. Yep. I've got one here.........a 34" Invector + gun with a Gracoil system that I need to advertise. It's a great gun and SUPER clean. But it just doesn't feel like a part of me........ Not like my O/U.

Well I missed MN Season B and use the season F bonus to get my bird.
It was on Memorial day weekend after hunting in 3 regions of MN.
Now I have to resist the urge to look at more turkey guns.
Other than that, How was the show Mrs. Lincoln?

I have been way happier since I quit buying a new turkey gun or 3 every year. Still like to look at and handle them, just not buy them. Somewhere along the line, playing with shells and chokes got expensive and time consuming. I have (2) guns now and life is good.

Have one of those sitting in the safe. Quite honestly........as it sits in factory configuration..........it's not as effective at 40-50 yards as any of our 20 gauges. Need an African gun bearer to carry it around for you, too.
