Re: Sterlingworth in Iowa
Unfortunately I didn't get a shot. I'm close enough to Iowa for day trips, and I usually stay away from the opener, but I went anyway only to find all of the public areas crowded, and my nice piece of private land was a bust. I'll get down there again later in the season.
Phil, my too-low-combed 16 gauge Sterlingworth went away to a very appreciative new owner. I kept the Utica 12 because it fits great and I shoot it confidently. It weighs just a couple ounces over 7 pounds, so it's not nearly as light as the 16, but I shoot it so much better it's well worth the extra heft!
