Because one active woodcock thread is not enough. :)
Since the flights seem to be starting, how about we share some woodcock pix. Here's my success of the morning. Quite pleased with the dog who has become deadly efficient both at putting them up and finding them when I knock them down. Also, I have found that losing 40 pounds has improved the gun fit, so now I actually hit them!

So did the diary entry read 8 flushes done by 9:00? good going. Did you get them north of London or south?
Well done Andrew ! What kind of gun is that in the picture ?
Well done. make sure you give the pup a treat tonight.
No, 18 flushes, but the ratio is improving significantly. :)Quote:

CZ Bobwhite 20 ga ... bought that based on Terry's positive reviews and it does seem to be working for me this fall.Quote:

I really like my Browning Silver semi 20 gauge but that CZ looks to be a very nice gun. What were you using before you got the CZ ?Quote:

very nice limit and look like a beautiful gun.
My all-round gun has been a 12 ga BPS, but it's a bit heavy for upland shootkng ... I got the CZ for a lighter, faster pointing gun.Quote:
