Does this count? Heard this single calling to the covey after we split them up! Should have 4/5 if I could shoot worth a crap.

The ol’ project gun went off! Then went to single barrel. we’ll fix that hopefully, bad primer strike

I called my shot on Sunday, we'll see if it bites me in the ass. He was last here at 1:15A, which is good. I was able to swing by the house between meetings and dump corn at 1P, which was perfect timing. Was supposed to be sunny and 50, it's overcast and 45 with the perfect crosswind speed-wise, and directionally. We both have everything in our favor with one exception, he thinks this blind is safe. 😎

We shall see how it plays out...

That's why it's hunting and not killing. He didn't get the memo. Did get to watch the most cautious spike of all time. He'll be damn near unkillable with age if that's how he's really wired. Was on the corn for 60 seconds, then saw something he didn't like, so he moved over to the brush and stood there for an hour before he was comfortable coming back in and by then, it was dark enough I wouldn't have shot anyways due to him blending into the background. Was impressive to see.
