With permission from another friend, (thanks, John) BowBo and I decided to hook up and see what we could do. There was a lot of corn still standing, and the birds were sporadic at times, but we still managed to get a lot of shooting in, and take home 9 birds. We did lose 2 that hit the standing corn and we were unable to locate them. Had a great time in the field with a good friend. Hope to do it again very soon! Brew coffee....not tards
