The first Grouse shot with the new Ithaca 37 was a success. Unfortunately the next two were not. grin

Day of mixed weather. Sun, rain, snow, calm and wind.



....and Toby brought her in.

Ken,

In this case a picture tells little of the story. 7hours of walking the Pa. Mountains with only 5 flushes is not the stuff of legend. grin or frown Take your pick.

Then back at the truck 20 minutes of picking 31 ticks off of Toby. Damn I hate those things. Found one that was getting a leg hold on me later in the evening.

Good or bad depends on how you look at things. I'll go with it could be better.

Talk to you later.

Nice photo, and hope you enjoy the 28.. Have had one in an 870 for maybe 7 or 8 years.. Just don't remember now.. For a while it was my blue grouse gun and shot quite a few sage grouse with it.. Never fired a shot with it this season.. But it is a delightful gun for hunting like you are doing.. Best of luck in your future hunts..

Time spent afield while carrying an Ithaca 37 is always good.
Ticks be damned.

I have a mod 37, pretty old and a 16 ga. Love it but never shoot it. My favorite gun right now is a 28 ga AxA Matador. I love the 28!
