Thanks ::handshake:: TWKG ::tu:: ... I like a medium or large stockman for lots of outdoors tasks and that Frontier makes a great EDC. I was shooting and old timey Auto 5. I have shot a bit of trap & skeet in the past, but not for quite a while and I was never a super-star at it. I always enjoyed it; I was just never great at it.

Nice old Model 11, Dog! And a nice pile of dove.

We are supposed to get back out to my buddies ranch for a second go-round at the dove sometime in the next couple of weeks - if we can get everyone's schedules coordinated. We all stay busy for a bunch of old farts. :lol:

Always enjoy the Outdoorsman Thread!
We haven't shot doves in years. :) Around here, farming practices have changed so much over the years, so much row crop land was put into pine trees and pasture, doves simply adjust to where the food is found. Peanut fields seem to attract good numbers of doves just like the harvested corn fields. Lots of good memories shooting doves with my son! ::tu::

I took down our game cameras a month or so ago before my knee surgery so have no deer pictures to share just now. We can report that yesterday afternoon while bush hogging an overgrown food plot, I saw 3 different does with little spotted fawns. Remember, our rut is still going strong into the month March, thus it's not unusual to still see spotted fawns even in November. Need to get the cameras back in the woods

Some pics from the wife's water trough in the front yard. She fills it up every morning when she is watering her plants.

Looks like the same two bucks, a couple of months apart.

Some more pics from the back of our property over the last few months. The camera captures a lot of pics of possums, raccoons, deer, coyote, fox, bobcat, and the dog pack down there. Even captures an occasional Sasquatch sighting. :lol:

The dog pack always seems to come through around 2 to 3 in the morning. They have done some damage to livestock in the area over the last couple of years.
