Okay here are more boots on the ground reports. Drove about 70 miles to another area. Saw one smashed rooster on the road. I have 4 very experienced dogs, 2 are older and get only light duty. Two are in their prime. Put up maybe 15 today, got 3 roosters. Yesterday put up 12 got 3. Day before put up maybe 10 no shots. Dogs are all beat up from dry conditions. Saw way more hunters than birds . Not great, often I have to move to another spot because there are hunters where I want to go. Suspect the rather marginal hunting will thin the crowds. The pointer people I’ve talked to are doing about the same, a bird or two . The dryness and warm temps are tough .
