So I won't repost any of the gory pics but as you are aware I did some significant damage to my thumb with the crossbow on Thursday.

Today I headed up to to the camp determined to use the shotgun to get some ruff grouse. It went better than I expected and I managed my bag limit with a minimum of discomfort. Quite happy with the outcome:

Looks like a great day of hunting to me.

Yeah was feeling good but not good. I don't think I'm up to hauling a deer out of the bush just yet or field dressing it for that matter.

Thumb is still pretty swollen and nasty looking but is less painful and now starting to itch something fierce. I put the factory stock (which has guards) back on for the time being.
