That's what they told me when I arrived in Vietnam in 1967. When I finally left in 1972, I swear each year had been a little hotter. I am so glad, after hearing how much worse it would be for me elsewhere in the US, to live where the climate dosen't have such drastic moderations, hot or cold. I don't know though, it may not be bad hunting where it's over 115, the game would be partially cooked before I got home.

Bobby, I've hunted Doves in the desert in far Southern California and in Arizona as well. In California the temperatures were 110; 112; and 113 over three days. It actually wasn't too bad. Dry climate does make a difference. Needed lot's of sunscreen and water. Drank about 3 gallons a day (that's with a "G") and never had to pea nor did we sweat. However, we really appreciated the pool at the hotel at the end of the day!

Currently reloading with rock salt and peppercorns.
Seasoned and cooked by the time they hit the ground.
