    West Byers neighborhood, any thoughts on living there? Essentially near roy pope grocery. 

    We live 5 minutes from there (Ridgmar).  Great neighborhood.  Roy Pope really wants to build that neighborhood vibe.  You are convenient to everything and would recommend

  2. Our 8 year old did La Junta last summer.  Great experience.  They are currently doing a travel tour to major cities in Texas.  Provides a good intro.  Will be in Ft Worth this Sunday.

  3. Spent last weekend in the Quarter.  Finally went to Casamentos.  No frills dive with great gumbo.  Walked by La Petite and wanted to eat there.  Shrimp and Grits at the Columns are great.  Antoine's was a last minute book and worst meal of the trip, got seated in the cafeteria out back with a coked up waiter

    Anyone been to Mi Cocula on Camp Bowie, in the old Texas Grill spot next to Party Warehouse? 

    Went there about 6 months ago.  Food was good.  It is not one of my favorites, but I would recommend it

    I still have that old 4X Weaver scope that my g-father used for decades.  Finally replaced with a modern scope

    I'm partial to the 4x weaver because that's what granddaddy always used.  It is the scope i still have on a couple of my rifles

    Not me, I have a Remington 870 I use for trap.

    Old 870 is my go to field gun and used it a lot for trap.  The best skeet shooter I ever knew used an 1100 and loved smoking those guys with their fancy doubles

    It has been decades since I sat in a blind, but if I were to go out again, it would be with this ‘60s era Browning Safari .30-06 with a Leopold. Inherited it 20 years ago from a family friend (a WW2 Hump pilot veteran) who used it on numerous Alaskan hunts.

    I have the same gun but no scope on it yet, would like to find a 6x leupold

    I don't want to derail the this thread at all, but I do have a quick question that I guess this is the best place to ask....   Any recommendations for a good 12 or 20 ga shotgun that can do double duty as a target (mostly trap/skeet) and as a dove/pheasant gun?  I'm open to semi-auto or O/U and am hoping to keep it under $1500 (or $1000) if possible.

    I would look for a good used Winchester 101.  I have a skeet/skeet and full/mod.  Both 20 ga that serves most trap/skeet and dove/upland hunting.  Really like the skeet/skeet for quail or close in dove.  Should be able to find for around $1000-$1200
