Here's Davey with the very first dove he ever shot!
He's shot at them before, but finally got one. He was using Joey's
20 gauge instead of his 0.410. |
 |
Jerry got tired of shooting and sat down. He shot
about 100 shells and only got one dove. This was Jerry's first hunt
in two years. It pays to practice. |
| Davey hunting on opening day in the afternoon. Joey
and Dad already limited in a morning hunt. |
 |
Here's Davey posing with Teddy Jacoby. We lease
the dove field from Mr. Teddy. |
 |
 |
Here's Dad and Joe on opening day with two dove
limits (30 doves). This was the best hunt we had ever been on. Both
of us limited in less than an hour. The doves were everywhere! |
 |
We took Joey's friend, Adrian Zahn, dove hunting
one day. We only killed a few doves but had a good time. |
| Jonathon gets ready for his first shot when we went
skeet shooting with Uncle Jud. |
 |
Matt, cousin Kim's boyfriend, never shot skeet before,
but shot well. |
 |
 |
Joey loads his over-under on station 2. |
 |
Joey is an excellent shot. |
| Matt takes aim. |
 |
Dad gets in on the action. |
 |
 |
Davey tries out Uncle Jud's 0.22 pistol. |
 |
Judy almost never shoots guns, but had a good time
with this pistol. |
| Ahhhhhh!!!!!!! That's LOUD!!!!!!!!!! |
 |
While we're having fun, Judy might as well try the
0.22 rifle. |
 |
 |
Judy is trying to get up the courage to try a shotgun. |
 |
Here, we are packing up Ed Wortham's car about 4:00
am getting ready for youth day. Only kids under 16 can shoot that
day. |
| Davey was getting tired in the blind that day. |
 |
Joey has a sharp eye out looking for ducks. Be very,
very quiet! |
 |
 |
This was a real special event. Joey shot a pair
of woodducks out of a single group. Nice shot and nice birds! |
 |
Closeup of the woodducks. |
| Davey just came to watch. We tried to get him to
shoot, but he doesn't like the kick the shotgun dishes out when using
the high power duck loads. |
 |
Here's Dr. Wortham with Joe and Dave. It is a really
special friend who will take the time to go out on youth day and not
get to fire a shot. |
 |
 |
Here's Joey with the four ducks he killed on youth
day. |
 |
A nice Gadwall Joey shot. |
| This is a hen woodduck Joey shot. The woodducks
are the tastiest ducks. |
