I tried logging on to your FB page Larson, but it won't let me.  Are you a deer hunter?  Sunday is the end of deer and pheasant season in Illinois.

Sorry, I didn't make that one public. Ill change it next time I'm in there or you can send me a friend request. There's a link in my profile.  Just some pics of one of my daughters and some buddies shootin' some clay pigeons. I saw Dan had some pics on his wife's fb page of some lead flyin' also.

yes we did!  see link above, 

that day we went through almost 5 cases of pigeons, and no telling how much ammo.
Had the whole family out there that day.

It was a good day, :)

It's obviously been a while since any of us have picked up a shotgun. We went thru 2 cases of pigeons (180) and about 4 cases of shells (400)! Still a fun day, got one of my daughters to shoot for the first time. 12ga was too big for her but she still winged a couple. The 9mm scared her silly though! lol

She would love my little 410 over/under.!  Too windy here today,, 65 degrees, very nice.. but 25 - 30 mph steady winds..  I guess that would make the pigeons fly though!!

thelarsonsix

It was windy here also, but we gave it a shot anyhow. She took a couple turns with a 20gauge think that was more her style. A 410 probably would be just about right. She didn't want anything to do with the AR-15 or the 44 mag revolver. Can't say I blame her for that one though. lol! ;D

yea, the ar15 barks alot, 
44 mag? thats not even funny! Maybe my 22 mag auto, although it barks, BUT no kick! nice little weapon.
I have a new ar10, that i am waiting for a calm nice day to sight in.  20 inch barrel, it really barks!!  I think I am going to set it dead on at 1/4 mile...
oh well back to work tomorrow..
