There was some big hail the beginning of July but I think it was up more around minden and hartwell?

My dad and I hunted 3.5 days with 1 veteran dog and 2 pups. We ended up with 5 roosters and 7 quail. The cover looked good and there was still quite a bit of crops unharvested. There are some birds around, you just have to work to find them. We found most of the birds in the grass next to a corn or milo field.

I’d say that’s pretty close to what I experienced.
I just ended up hunting the 1 day and headed back at 330.Some unexpected things at home. 2 coveys iof quail that I didn’t shoot at. 20-25 hens and 6 shootable roosters that I mostly missed 2 were hit but kept going. Subconsciously I wanted to shoot with my middle finger and I wasn’t pulling my gun back into my shoulder. Floated all over my shoulder and bicep. I should have killed some birds.
