Ptarmigan Hunting

Milt, Michael and I enjoyed a beautiful day of Ptarmigan hunting yesterday. Barely a whisper of wind and about 20 degrees, you can't ask for much more. We saw so many birds it was ridiculous. I reloaded the .22 three or four times and only hit 5. It holds 25 shots. Not good shooting. Later that night, I took the gun over to the beach for a little sighting in. The first 4 shots were within 1/2" at 50 yards. So, it was not the gun. Embarrassing.

    TT - A lot of people in alaska go hunting for FOOD, mostly because they don't have enough money to survive.

    They are well skilled at their craft. Don’t be so desperate for a date you put your children at risk.
