Thanks Don. I learn something new every time I pick up the rasp or paintbrush. I really need to paint the garage. Looking forward to giving my shelves a clean look.

Took a break from carving and painting to catch up. Had to redo my decoy storage and take advantage of the weather to do some clear coating.

My first carved bird was a Buffy. #2 -#6 were buffies. My first six bird limit were buffies. One of my top ten hunts in my life was a 12 bird drake buffie hunt on Chesapeake bay with a friend over my six hand carved buffies. My son’s first duck was a buffie. I dont shoot them anymore. But...

Unfortunately with season starting in 10 days and no gunsmiths in my area I am somewhat limited in my options.

Ordered a mossberg sa20 for turkeys. I’ll look into the nitros. Thanks.

Thanks. Would love a solid 40 yard gun with lead.

I’m going to try out a 20 guage auto loader. Unfortunately tss is all sold out around me and tariffs and seasonal needs will make it tough. I’ll have to use good old fashioned lead 5s. Hopefully I’ll luck into a good combo.

Been trying to add some weight to my turkey shotgun to reduce the punishment it gives out on the back end. I cast a plug out of lead and an insert for the stock today. I had big plans to get a 20 guage and set it up this year but I ran out of time.

I’m having trouble getting to the work bench. I’m in a weird place with weather, work, and ambition. I have two more hen redheads to take over the finish line then keels for everything I made this winter. I also need to completely redo my decoy storage I’m out of room after this winters efforts.
