Well my oak bowl has become a turners "make something cool from a screw up" project..... It has been so long since I did any turning, that I forgot to check my depth and made a funnel. I have something in mind, but its a surprise. :msp_razz:

Just go with the flow,works out best usually.

Its cause you can ! LOL I even have one 870 Wingmaster 12ga bought new in 1968,never had a shell in it ! LOL Even have the original box of shells and recite with it. To bad the first owner trashed the box !

My BIL hunted with a Wingmaster right beside me in the blinds, the 1100 could take a bird out of the air 50' further out than the Wingmaster. I could and have fired 75 shots in a days hunting sea ducks on the wing, the 1100 is so easy on recoil it never bothered me. My BIL would be out of it after 25 or so.

I used to goose hunt with my single shot, got good at reloading fast. My shoulders would be black and blue from having to switch back and forth to be able to shoot all day. I love goose hunting, ranks up there with deer hunting for me.

That gas operated works great ! I had 2 of the 1100s in 20ga. barely knew you was shooting anything.

I have only shot 2 geese,Mom tried fixing them 2 different ways. Stihl couldn't eat them things ! Never shot another one.

A good friend om mine loves his single shot,and is very fast at reloading ! Keeps 2 shells in his mouth out hunting.

We put in many days in floating gun tubs where we stood up in the submerged tubs that have raft wings attached that project out 5-6' all around at the surface, this helps stop the slop of water making it into the tub. We have one or more powerboats tending us in case we swamp and they also retrieve the birds. The big sea birds like the Scotter, Scaup, Coots and the King Eider can make a great days gunning , the like few ever get to see.

Yep,..that`s the secret, never had a ache or pain from firing 3 or more boxes a day with that gun. Now my SS and OU guns can lay a hurtin on ya....LOL

I was gonna buy a semi auto 12ga for turkey duck and geese but a certain chainsaw came along first

I have had goose done a couple different ways.........sausage and smoked were pretty good

Nope not yet!

 

[tbone75]

Only been duck hunting once ! Good friend of my Dads took me out. We got a few wood ducks,that was some good eating !!

 

[jimdad07]

I slice the breast meat up real thin and fry in butter, garlic, salt and pepper. That's the best way I've had it, tastes like deer tenderloin cooked like that.

 

[tbone75]

Ron didn't stick around very long. Scoot didn't either !

Buncha SLACKERS !

 

[tbone75]

Night slackers. My puppy learned not to sniff a bumble bee today. Half his face is swelled up. The swelling has his nose bent to the side. My bet is he will sniff another tomorrow... :msp_sleep:
