A can is a really neat bird to bag..Redheads too. No cans here but the mallards and even som pintails are showing up in good numbers. Going duckin tomorrow ..peasant hunting..yeah..peasants. They always complain so much when ya shoot them. .pHeasants is what I meant...on Tuesday. Got a good number on the ranch this year. Then we're going elk hunting either Wednesday or Thursday...Still up pretty high but the snow and cold is bringin 'em down. Next week is more duckin and a friend who is a masochist wants to go hunt chuckers next week too. I doubt I can run that fast though..even with dogs they run too much. But I had a guy give me a case of Remington pigeon loads so maybe the shot can catch 'em. They closed his pigeon shooting club down in Pa. darn it. They finally caved in to too many lawsuits I think. Stupid anti's with stupid lawyers

Man, it sounds like you are having a good time hunting, and going a lot of it. I am doing a ton more than last year and having a blast so far this year. Just wished I could have done more dove hunting, but such is life. I'm going pheasant hunting for free tomorrow on a regulated shooting area. Supposedly, we are going after 200 birds that are left from a tower shoot. Should be able to fill up the trunk with them, but my wife doesn't want to eat them if I use lead shot. What would you guys recommend in the steel variety? I was thinking about going with some 3" Remington Nitro 4's. Think that will get the job done? I know this is completely off topic, but just thought about it and figured I might as well post it before I forget. Sorry Mr. 16.
