Strange thing, it was calm out there until about 10, and we were done shortly after that.

I had my three pretty early on...it's good to be on the outside edge of the line
Came home with 5, as one of the guys doesn't eat them. The gal we had working the dog was good, so was her GSP. Held point, didn't get too far ahead, etc...

There were only two groups hunting, which surprised me. I figured it would be packed on a Friday.

I'm surprised too. That place used to always be booked out.

I haven't been hunting there since Mike R. got out of the bird business.

Before yesterday it had been 5 years or so since I'd been there. The place doesn't look any different, but they took us clear over by the prison to hunt rather than down the hill from the shack and across the river. Could be they don't use that area any longer, or maybe the river crossing isn't passable anymore.

There is one group that are real women.
The dancers are usually pretty good.
Of course it's really hard to beat the men.
No I didn't.

Only watched bits and pieces of the Pro Bowl as I was watching Jumanji on another channel. I don't think I'll waste my time next year to see it. Is the all star game in baseball as bad as this was?

Not quite as bad. At least in baseball's all-star game they use the same rules as they do in the regular season. In the Pro Bowl they have rules that neuter the defense....no blocking kicks, must play a 4/3 defense, etc.
