Here is some J&G Preserve action in Hackettstown today with MikeP, George (son-in-law no gun still needs to take the safety test), Frankie (dog), and Lady (dog).
I missed two cockbirds and a chuckar. However, I did manager to bag a hen bird and three chuckar. MikeP missed a couple in the beginning because he had "his gloves on"... LOL... well after he took them off he started drilling them. Thanks for a good day guys (and doggies).
MikeP and George in the thick stuff along the powerlines:

MikeP talking to the doggie:
Where is the birdie?
Good boy Frankie:

Where is the birdie Frankie?
Doggies working the back:
George stepped through the ice... up to his knees in frozen mud... LOL:

Another good day in the field.

Dragthor putting the bead on one. (Not sure what Lady's doing but it's only her second day out)
Never get tired of seeing a dog on point

Is that Grandpa Sisco's Model 12 I see? No, that cannon is too heavy to carry trying to keep up with Frankie. I wish Frankie (the dog) moved a little more at the pace grandpa (Frank) used too. I think their non-stop passion for chasing birds is about the same.
I am taking the Model 12 goose hunting this weekend, first time I've had it out of the case. I figure the choke is so worn out I can just point it in the sky and pull the trigger. __________________ "Hunters across America must wake up to the awareness that they stand a good chance of losing their sport because of their own inaction and lassitude."

MikeP, remember that one cockbird along the powerlines that I missed/couldn't get a shot at? Its because I had my camera around my wrist. __________________ |
