Well…….. there was a time that I knew of a guy that saw a eagle in a parking lot

This....while @gasman Bird Identification class is really a must attend event, there was no guarantees the info you're being taught was accurate or usable.

Leader of our group just called and said "a thousand ducks right next to our field".
He's hunting tomorrow. Im going over Saturday. Shoot, we may get to double digits by Sunday. We just need 3. Lol.

LOL we hit double digits yesterday.

Update from our pit today. 1 hunter, 1 duck. Lots of high flyers. What few birds that were close were stale. I ain't feeling confident about tomorrow so I will probably cancel my trip.

 

[WilcoKen]

Skunked.

 

[RUGER]

We killed 5.
Man got a beautiful bull pintail.

Yep I'm excited.
I built him a shadow box last year out of old barn wood.
Can't wait to see it finished.
He's gonna dead mount it.

 

[Levee Jumper]

Skunked.

Thats rough.... I hate it for you but I believe I would run from that field and consider it a lesson learned. No sense in burning gas and time on gar holes.

2 of our guys went about lunch today.
They killed 1.
Guess we are just a little farther south than the birds are yet.

Only killed 2 at Cheatham today. Waiting on Arcticmageddon.

That pit of yours seems to have some consistency. I'd say it will only get better.

I can say we haven't been skunked but once and they said it was their fault because they couldn't hit lol
Two days with 5
One day with 2
The rest were singles lol
Think we're at 18 now

I always hunted Arkansas, but four years ago started hunting the boot hill cause it was closer and easier from (Chattanooga area). Never had a great hunt. Had a few decent hunts but never great. Too many people and pits/blinds. I didn't get on one this year and prob won't ever. I wish it was better.

Between this season and all of last, we've had 1 decent hunt. That was last year. All the other hunts have just been terrible. This year especially. I may go back over 2-3 times between now and Jan 31. After that, I'm done with the area we are in. It has not lived up to the hype I was fed.

Let me guess. Near kennett?
