[QUOTE="mike243, post: 5689967, member: 3237"] I remember the very first time I was checked, its been 50 years now, me and stepdad were rabbit hunting down near Doyle town in a light rain, tennis shoes that were soaked and feet frozen, must've been in the upper 30's. the dogs were making a big loop and were pretty far and I was hugging a tree trying to stop shaking I was so cold. All of a sudden a man stepped out in front of me, game warden lol , I was shooting a single shot 20g, he checked every shell I had and didn't find no slugs, don't reckon he ever caught up with the SF , man I hated being so poor we couldn't afford a pair of boots to hunt in, those $2,00 tennis shoes were tough though. I don't know how they afforded it but for my 12th birthday I got the new shotgun license a box of shells and a beagle dog, best rabbit dog I ever had, I have had a lot of birthdays since but that was the best ever. The gw was dedicated being out in that mess trying to protect deer, back then there wasn't a lot of them around White county, we got it a lot better than those days so feel blessed with what has been accomplished with our turkeys and deer, I know they have tried to help quail but that a bird that can't learn from us, not sure pheasant could make it here but would like to hunt them.
