[M.T. Pockets]

Last time I was in Jackson was Sept. 2003. I was hauling elk quarters in the back of my truck right down main drag down to see Chuck at the locker plant. I had a Hummer on my left at the stop light, and a blue haired kid on a skateboard with his pants half down his a$$ go past me on the right.

I was glad to get to the trailhead and ride back to camp that night.

We're looking forward to the Saskatchewan trip, we're going late in October since it "supposed" to be better for the large Canada geese and Mallards. There are 6 of us going, we had to book that many to guarantee we'd have our own group in the field.

I plan on doing a bit of pattern testing when it gets back above zero up here. I only have Improved Cyl, Modified & Full. I've never had Full in the gun. I'll likely buy an aftermarket choke, but that's a whole nother thread I'll start later in shotguns.

The outfitter said that they only hunt over decoys and hold the shooting til they're committed. He said the first shot, on average, is 15 yards. The guides won't be carrying guns, I guess that's not allowed in Saskatchewan. That's fine with me, if a guide wants to carry a gun he can carry mine til I need it.
