The major purchases have been made , for the rod I bought a St.Croix Triumph TRC70MHF from Dean at Everts Resort
Careful, you might find that rod in your hands more than hers. It’s a winner
October 31, 2008 at 1:14 pm #720247Good to hear she likes it!
Thanks for the business!October 31, 2008 at 2:05 pm #720256Sounds like you got her a great set up.
November 1, 2008 at 2:38 pm #720395A special thanks from me (Mary) to you, Dean and BrianK for your help to get me set up.. I can’t wait to get out in the spring and try it out.

Mary, do not let Jeff troll with it or let him take it casting for those scaly skis….If you do…don’t say we didn’t warn you!
We’ll be watching for you at Everts once the weather is back into the 70’s.

June 19, 2013 at 6:33 pm #207808Is there anyway to “test drive” a shotgun before buying it? I’ve got my eye on a couple different models and would like to get a feel for the recoil dampning before slapping down the cash. Is this even possible these days?
June 19, 2013 at 7:10 pm #130792I’ve never heard of it at a store. Only big outdoor shows.
June 19, 2013 at 8:35 pm #130797I’m with Zuke, I’ve never heard of a store doing it except during certain special events.
Here in Minnesota we have the Game Fair and there are similar events where the manufacturers will let you test drive shotguns on clays. However, knowing what models will be available such that the exact one you want to test will be there is going to be tricky.

June 20, 2013 at 2:55 pm #130803I know Reeds usually has an event every year where you can go out and test shoot guns. I worked for a sporting goods store in Marshall, MN and they also had an event every year where the Beretta and Benelli reps would bring out guns to try. The reps we worked with wanted the customer to get out and shoot the guns first. Dusty Minke (dustyfish, I think is his IDO username) is a rep for Browning and could probably help you out if you are considering a Browning.
June 20, 2013 at 3:29 pm #130806Thanks for the information guys. I am personally interested in shooting the new Browning A-5 in 3.5in. My father in-law is also in the market and is much pickier than I am. He is interested in comparing the Bennelli Legend with the Beretta A400 or anything else comparible to the Legend.
I just got to thinking that places allow you to shoot bows, test drive cars, demo ride atvs and snowmobiles, but didn’t know about shooting guns.
June 21, 2013 at 2:04 am #130812A400 is sawheet! But I believe I will be purchasing a browning maxus this year before duck opener.
