First day not so well for me either. Roosted a bird Thursday. Rascal picked out a tree 60 yards from us so it was pretty dark getting out of the woods. He dropped down away from us and straight to all his hens in morning. We thought he was going right so we dropped off in steep hollow to cut him off......he went left. Anyway when we figured him out he and his posse were heading to top of next ridge. We tried to cut them off but they beat us. My buddy missed after we walked up on the flock.
