Are you sure you didn't accidentally drive to sd?:D:D. Excellent work Bryan, kinda felt like the good old day's I'm sure. I miss my dad every fall too.
 
I havnt hunted 35 minutes and ive gotten my limit of roosters unreal!!!!

That's what I told you last week I did up there in 2009 and you called me a liar. ;)

Good job.

I got out here locally yesterday and had points on 2 coveys of quail and a point on a single in a bit under 3 hours. Trucks parked at every corner of the property.
 
After 3 days in public field I've seen 2 coveys and probably 15 phez. Bagged 1 rooster and the smallest quail, felt bad when picked it up but flushing it looked normal so didn't chase the singles.
