here's a pic from last monday up to camp. rained hard and the wind blew but i managed 6 w/ my 8month old griffon. we see a ton of road birds but after you hunt w/ dogs, ground swattin' aint nearly as fun so we drove by 'em.


i have some go pro video too buts its kinda long and takes forever to download to photobucket. plus, im not sure how to actually post em once they are on there.

for you rabbit hunters, this is a few pics from last winter. we ended up w/ a total of 98.



this was a bad day, it was -15 in jackman







bored yet?!

X2! What is that sidexside you are holding? I want one for bunny's easier to carry then over unders and have a tendency to shoot low which is perfect for stuff on the ground............

its a stoeger 20ga, double trigger. youll notice i went back to my 1187 upland special 20ga after the jackman pic. my stoeger didint go off three times up there that day and another guy had an o/u stoeger that didnt go off once also. when that happens i lose all confidence in a gun. what can you expect for $329.00 out the door though right. i know it was cold but i use a non oil based dry lube spray (hornady one shot) so it wasnt freeze up in that regaurd. i think gettin in a warm truck then out to hunt then back in and then out again built up condensation and thats what made the firing pin springs stick. prob never happen again buttttt.......my remmy has never not gone boom in any conditions ive been in. either of em, yes i have a twin pair 8) one semi gloss for upland and one i refinished dull w/ linseed for a "beater" ducks, rabbits etc

That is what I have been questioning so far............ ALL the double barrels sidexside or O/U are like 2500+ brand new but those stoegers are like 3 bills if you don't get a single trigger so I have been scared to get one..........

The pic with Eric did those rabbits go to you guys total or his and C.J.'s total? HAHAHAHAHA! Cool pics!

not sure, lmao, we met up around 1 oclock that day and we had 6 by then and brady had 2 then we put all the dogs down and eric shot the 9th. we only counted our 6 that chris's dogs run lol. they ended up w/ like 130 or 132 rabbits so a handfull here or there i dont think would have made much differance to them boys lol :P we should have been around 115 but we missed a few ::)

you dont like double triggers? i never did but after a few hunts and a couple boxes of skeet i now prefer it over a single. that gun doesnt get much hunting time anymore, im waiting to find somehtin else i want then use it for bartering material

Awesome pictures.... Thanks for sharing. Those Grifons are such cool looking dogs. My cousin had one that was fun to hunt with, he was very slow on the ground but he did not miss a thing.

slow working dogs are better usually. you'll put more birds in the bag 9 times out of 10. they are slower hunters because they are more methodical and more thorough ;) we have a litter coming at the end of the month, you should have one lol
