This is really the tough time of year for bird hunters, both 2 legged as well as 4. Too hot to work the dog too much, so Ike will have to be satisfied pointing rabbits in the yard and doves and other birds on our walks. I think he will be OK seems like he gets it kind of naturally. Me, on the other hand has to work on it to make sure when it is time I don't disappoint the little guy. He works hard for every bird and it's bad enough when it is a wild hen and we can't shoot them. He doesn't know the difference and I swear last year in South Dakota, after about the 4th hen that got up and I didn't shoot, I got a look from Ike like, "What the heck are you doing, I could've got that one!!" So anyway, humans can shoot clay pigeons to stay sharp. Clay pigeon shooting takes many names and forms, Trap where the presentation is always the same, outgoing and rising targets. Skeet where you have two houses throwing to the same point each time but you move to change the angle. Sporting Clays, where you go from station to station and shoot any number of targets to closely mimic the types of shots you see in real Wingshooting. There are other too that are lots of fun but so can using your own thrower and going on your own.
I used to have a one man operated manual thrower and I really loved that thing. Really was a great thing for the person that shot alone. Once I got proficient at that one I was looking for a tougher faster thrower. I found it in the White Wing model by Do All Inc. So to make it even tougher I bought the wobbler kit for it.. Well by the time I got all of that put together It was too much for me to load and carry - So what would any American male do???... He would commandeer his wife's garden cart and mount it on that and use his ramps to load it in the truck YES!!!
Take a look and I tried it out today and it was really slick.....
