Have you ever had ignition problems in the field in those conditions? Beautiful photo; I would love to do a winter hunt like that one day.
 
Jethro...Good shooting...Looks like a blast..we had 8-10 inches of snow- X-mas eve-it rained hard all night now we have 7 inches with a nasty crust. Right now it's hard to sneak up on anything.
Got to love a wide brimmed hat to keep the snow and brush out of your eyes. Cabela's has one I use .Blaze orange felt. Looks like yours.
Enjoy the snow....Dan

Ever since I switched to real BP the only ignition problems I've had using caplocks were my own fault for not cleaning properly. :doh:
With my flinters I've had a few due to dull flints that I shoulda knapped sooner.

We had nothing but rain for DAYS before Christmas. Woke up to 48 degrees and rain Christmas morning that turned into snow and 20's by afternoon. Been snowing ever since. We probably have about 8 inches now. No crust tho.

I do love that old hat. I've had it for something like 20 years. It's my lucky deer huntin' hat. :thumbsup: Never saw a wool felt blaze orange one like it so I just pull a cheap knit watchcap over it to make it legal.

Yep, it's a 12ga cylinder bore New Englander. I really like it. It's a handy little, quick swinging shotgun. This was the first time I've had it out hunting. There'll be more. :thumbsup:

Have a great vacation. I hope you get to go harass some bunnies.
 
Waidmanns Heil to this nice grey flitzer! :thumbsup:

You have a real southern bavarian weather over there! :grin:
