Garry, yes--like you averaging just over 4 flushes/hr. I am by myself, so am putting in 6-7 hrs/day, so thats alot of birds. Not keeping shooting percentages--dont want to be depressed. I am hunting thru Friday, but now are calling for 1-2 in of rain Friday, so may wrap it up Thursday.

I could not keep up with you, Harold It appears that the cycle has not bottomed out in the Upper Midwest, at least based on your and my experience.

If it cools off here, we may try for some woodcock at the farm...or sit in a deer stand and take a nap.

Be careful out there by yourself, and continue to let us know how things are going.
