First of all, thanks to everyone for their help to make this trip a success. We hunted for three days killing three birds which I felt was respectable for a rookie. Highs during the day was 100+. We were able to hunt four hours each morning. Of course right after we leave it’s suppose to be great weather.
After looking at it I wish I would have went to Mckelvie instead of Valentine National. Valentine had a lot of high grass on the hills and flats obviously wasn’t grazed. I did notice however at Mckelvie it was much shorter cover and more cows. The walking was brutal glad I had myself in decent shape. Sand burrs were crazy, thank god for dog boots. And what in the hell is up with the turtles and cactus!? You guys failed to mention those! Grilled our birds last night and damn they’re tasty. We have 13 of our 16 hour ride home knocked out, looking forward to chasing ole bobwhite in Nebraska in November!
