I’m 59 and the last 4 years have been wearing the Salomon hiking boots. They’re light, waterproof and have great traction. My feet have never gotten cold and that’s counting this past January in South Dakota at -5. They are the 6 inch boots and with the Dans briar proof chaps I wear over them...

It’s not a hen so it’s safe.

Nice! Looks like a good morning. Heading to Phillipsburg Tuesday morning for a 3 day hunt. Probably evening hunt around a pond or two and set up on some wheat stubble in the mornings.

Tons of videos and diagrams online about how to set up the friction rings. That’s where most people go wrong I believe. If the friction rings are set up wrong these guns will kick too much or not cycle correctly.

I have a 12 and a 20. Extremely reliable and mine don’t kick much. I put new brass friction rings in mine and usually leave them turned to the heavy load side and they cycle all but the lightest loads. They are really light guns especially the 20 gauge.

Thanks for your work. The Warchief seems to be the best alternative to lead. Plan on using it in Iowa in a couple of weeks.

That looks promising! Good job. We’ll probably be hunting wheat stubble with some water close by. If there’s any water to be found. Thanks!

Just wondering if anybody has been out. Going to Norton for a few days this week and hoping there’s a few birds.

Great job! Hope I’m still out chasing them at 75!

I always appreciate getting the original box with a gun. I'd keep the boxes if you have the room.

I'm gettin old enough to be nostalgic and I love paper shells. But there ain't no denying that they will swell a little in the moisture.

Load those Federal papers with 1 1/4 oz of 5 shot and Unique powder to 1220 fps. Also load1 1/8 oz of 5 shot in those pretty purple 16 gauge hulls.

I've worn Dans for the last 3 years and love them.

That's probably about the most accurate description I've ever seen of how I feel. For me it was at Glen Elder in 1972. I've never been the same since. I get so excited I can barely stand it. It is honestly worse now than when I was a kid. My wife doesn't understand it. Very few people probably...
