Daniel, I struggled to get my 15 birds too. I was well into my second box of shells before leaving the field. Some of the flurries nearly screwed me into the ground trying to pick out a bird to shoot or shoot at. I have been in horrible back pain. The shot the doctors gave in my back did nothing. Neither opioids on their own or chased with 4oz of 90 proof relieve the pain. The last bird I dropped was some distance so I headed toward it. I was I’m real pain so I took off for the truck instead. I drove into the field and made the retrieve, picked up my seat and birds, then headed for the hospitality van.
