SO happy November is here!

Nicely done! Top one is a little scrawny, ain't it? Bet it still tastes just as good, though!:) Good stuff!

Rubbish! Yeah, but you're talkin' 'bout California! Birth place of WTF?! Read the line from the article: "Ted Nugent is prohibited from hunting deer in California until after June 30 of 2012," Foy said. "He can hunt pheasants. He can hunt pigs. He can hunt whatever else he wants to hunt. He...

Am I missing something? I grew up a Karl Malden fan. With a side helping of Kojak and Simon and Simon, I have a true pop television detective degree. Not that I really even need that, though, with the info Wirehair posted above. The Motor City Madman can't hunt deer in California. Check...

Try Ace I don't know if it's just the Ace Hardware here in Salina, but they carry Fiocchi. It could just be that this particular Ace has a nice hunting area and is well stocked, but it's a great place. Bought some Fiocchi #5 yesterday, 1 3/8 for about $18.

"Tough" would be facing the wife to tell her I spent the cash for hotel for a couple of nights! Aside from the cold, I figure I'm taking the easy way out. I have to check to see what temperature my bag is rated for, first....I can't remember. But if it's a warm bag I figure it won't be that...

That's part of what makes it more difficult for me, with a pump, as well. An O/U sure would make things a little more flexible, because I really don't want to step up to the occasional quail with what I feel I need for pheasant. I haven't seen any of birds I'm after hold for any amount of...

Thanks! I couldn't remember if what I had seen on that site was 1 hour or 1/2 hour before sunrise....1/2 hour before is about as early as I can imagine even trying, so that works well....thanks again.

So I realized I was walking with the completely wrong setup and went to a more appropriate choke and shell combo. I've been hunting a few preserves, so the 7 1/2 shot was fine for that - most shots were 20 yards because the birds would hold TIGHT. I was just running an improved cylinder choke...

Just a quick hello to make introductions....I just found this site today and was very impressed with the level of information and willingness of other hunters in the area to help out - the site was given an immediate bookmark as a place I figure I'll be coming back to quite a bit. I've been...
