Got this in an email today and had to share!

We had a great European Pheasant Hunt at Spanish Oak Hunt Club Saturday. It was raining and cold, but it was great fun and there were plenty of smiles to go around.

Speaking of smiles...I had to share these photos of 2 of my young students, Canaan age 13 and Lincoln age 10 at their first Pheasant hunt. I had the distinct pleasure of giving these boys shooting lessons on two different occasion along with their family. This is why I love this sport, families shooting together and hunting together make memories for life. These are fine young men, and I hope you are as proud of them as we are. Mom shot her first bird with a Model 12 20 gauge! Great job Leah!

Notice that Canaan was shooting a model 42 .410 pump. He shot his first Pheasant at 60 yards crossing and dropped the bird with one shot!

Lincoln is shooting a very old single shot, drop hammer .410. He also got his first bird with a fantastic single shot. I told the boys that anyone can bring them down with a twelve gauge, but real men do it with a .410!
