Hi Eric! Thank you for the kind words on the article. I'm flattered that you still hunt them. I haven't made any flatties in a couple of years, mainly because nobody has asked for any. A couple of years ago bought a whole case of 2" thick slabs of black cork. I married them to some exceptional...

Its been a long time since I've been a regular participant here....life has a way of getting in the way....And its one of those things that i'd like to bring up as you may find it interesting. As an avid reader of many things, one of my life goals was to be a published author. Several months...

Done!

I love big old duck guns. I have an 1894 Remington 10 with damascas barrels 32" long with 2 7/8" chambers. My late season whistler gun. Id love to find an Ithaca Super 10... John Bourbon

Troy, thank you for including our pictures in your photo dump. John

Hi Eric! The gun in the pic is my model 1894, but was built in the last year of manufacture, 1910. It has 32" damascas barrels and is damn near 12 pounds. I shoot low to moderate pressure smokeless powder loads out of, all of which I've loaded. It's my late season goldeneye gun, Full and Full...

Hi Bob. It has been too long! Believe it or not, that was way back in '09! I hope you are doing well..... John

HI Steve. What and where is the SSWa duck boat show? Thanks, John Bourbon

Heads!

It does look great. Cheech did a heck of a job, especially getting the length to width right. Speaking of which, it is 20" long tip to tip and 9.5" wide. I'm expecting great things from it.... John

Sandy, it is not uncommon for duck hunters on Champlain to build shore blinds out of hay bales. They probably figured that's what you were up to. John Bourbon

What's that old saying, "the hunting was good, but the killing was poor." It was a nice visit, but this early for us snow has done nothing for my hunting.... John

Hi Dave. I'll be very curious to hear what you think of those over coated deeks once you've had a chance to hunt them.....oh, and they look really good! John

Holy Smokes, we got pounded here in Vt. I was woke up at 3am by the Poke Boat being slammed against the house. It makes a very distinctive drum like sound... Yesterday it was reported that there were almost 50,000 customers without power, this morning its down to 36,000 or so. Huge trees down...

looking good! John

Cheech, you are too kind. I'll take you up on your offer... John

Aero aide? would that be like the belt on Black Cloud pellets? or a fin? Either way I bet it would be a pain to get it to release from the mold. John

Gentlemen, thanks for the answers as to "just what is Hevi-X?". At almost 10cc and $1.40 a shell, I'll try a box or 2. Hopefully I will be able to report back in a positive fashion... John Bourbon

I got an email from Mack's about something called Hevi X from the Hevi Shot people. Their website is very lite on actual info on it as to shot composition, etc. Do any of you guys know anything about it? John Bourbon

Yes, do find us some good spots as I will have to come visit! John
