I shot Roush Lake yesterday and had a good shoot until it poured down rain about 4:15. I saw 200-300 doves but they weren't flying in to feed. All the shots were either high pass over or fast down wind.

I took my friends 13 year old grandson with me and he almost shot up his 50 shell limit and killed 2 doves. I killed 4. I hit 6-7 knocking feathers out but they kept on flying like nothing happened. First time Ive shot steel for doves and was using #7, next time I will use #6's.

Flowers looked good in most fields except a couple that were nothing but mowed weeds. I was drawn 33 and picked in the low twenties because of no shows. The line for the stand-by drawing was up to 55 hunters.

They had a youth field and a DAV field that was out of the drawing for the first day but opened up today on. They had 52 spots +youth and DAV fields the first day and 72 today on. h.h.
