Title: Dove
Post by: JohnP on September 07, 2009, 01:31:31 PM
Just got back in from a little dove hunt.  Grandson with his first dove, told him we could go out again tomorrow since he probably caught Obama Flu and would be missing school.  That got an even bigger grin than that first dove.

This is awesome. And with a grandpa as willing as you, he'll continue to enjoy it for years to come. :highclap:

Nothing like taking the youngsters!   That picture is worth a lot.  I can remember that first dove well, 57 years ago. Kudos to you and the young fella!   :congrats: :congrats:

The O/U is a IGA Condor "El Cheap O" 20ga.  He shoots a Rem 870 28ga that I bought him when he was 2 days old.  I only allow him to load one shell at a time and I am the keeper of the shells.  He does fairly well with it and we try to make it to the skeet/trap field a couple of times a month.  He has his eye on my Ruger Red Label 20ga and Win 101 3 barrel set, which I imagine will probably end up being his - but not for a long while I hope.
