I have new hope. I went and looked at my uncles bird and I don't think it's the same one that I've been hunting. Although, I would have loved to shoot the bird he got. He believes that it will be the new state record for the state of Vermont with a score of 100.5, easily shattering the previous record set in 2013. Now, hopefully I will be hunting this weekend coming and I can connect on my obsession.
