Thanks Daryl for your two reports. Sounds like I didn't miss much by not going. Good luck on your upcoming pheasant trip. Good times with your regular crew. Please remind a certain gent to leave his 8 bore at home. Wouldn't want to see him get in trouble. :lol: frank You missed my smiling face 8) :...

I did the Vintagers on Thursday with Mr.’s Corona , Hoover and Bawell and enjoyed it . Only shot two of the fifty bird events and the twenty five bird 8 gauge event . That was plenty for a 3 1/2 hour drive up then a 3 1/2 hour drive home . Made for a kinda long day . But I was glad I went that was m...

Early antlerless deer season starts in VA in my county on 9/7/24 I suspect I may take a Parker shotgun loaded with a 1930’s vintage 0 buck in the right barrel and my handload in the left barrel and of course I’ll have my Mannlicher Schoenauer 6.5x54 MS along .

As I’m sure you well know the Vintage Cup is at Hopkins this year October 3-5 that’s like other years Thursday thru Saturday . Last year I got them to do an 8 gauge five stand event . So after doing 8 gauge thirty target events on the course at Hausemanns and Rock Mountain I’d been after them to do ...

8 gauge event Friday morning at the dove field !

Merry Christmas from those of us at the PGCA !

But the three long barreled Parker’s with premiums added were all over 40k all DHE’s 20-34” , 28-30” and 28-32” . I’d loved to have had the 28 32” but not at 47k .

Just a little update . Patton called me yesterday and we talked about half an hour . Anyway he sounded good , he said he didn’t feel 100% which is to be expected . And of course he gets tired fairly easily . He also told me he’ll start therapy here next week I believe he said . But he sounds in a pr...

And I hesitate to add the HE after having had one I’m Not as enamored as I once was . Different strokes for different folks. My 32", 3" chambered, 9 lb. 8 oz. Super is one of the last guns I own that I'd ever get rid of. It'll do anything I ask of it, even chase down late season, speedste...

Any 32” 16 or 20 . And I hesitate to add the HE after having had one I’m Not as enamored as I once was .

Got the latest straight from the horses mouth a couple minutes ago ! Patton told me the doctors are telling him he may be able to head home this Friday or Saturday . But he sounds in good spirits all be it a little tired . But all in all I’d say it’s all be a steady upward progression !

More positive news late last night ! A friend called and told me Danny had called him and said the plan at the moment is for him to return home next Thursday or atleast start the drive home of course with other people .

Got an update on Patton today ! He is out of the hospital and in a rehabilitation facility still in WI . He’s talking fine and walking pretty well and from what I understand the physical and occupational therapy are going well . I was told he’ll most likely be there a couple weeks before they think ...

Also was told today he’s scheduled to start physical therapy today or tommorrow .

New update this morning Patton is very much awake , the tube is oughtta his throat , he’s talking and moving his arms . But he’s still a bit groggy . A positive progression for sure !
