Well I' d have to say personally, a good year. Bagged 2. But the season was like BT said, hen' d up all through out. We had an early hot spell in Feb. and seemed to kick them in gear a little early. But for me like I said a good year, after my first 3, they couldn' t get much worse. My first time out I went with a guy at my Wofe' s work who turned out to be a run an gun member. Constantly telling me he had permission to hunt these lands, but kept getting kicked off[:@]. 2nd year talked my Wife into going and she slept wrong and threw her neck out of place, so I spent opening weekend looking for a Chiropractor(sp.). My 3rd year my hunting partner ate some under cooked sausage and came down with e-coli[X(]. So they ' re all good seasons after all that.
