Generally a down year for me. Saw about 75% fewer birds, harvested about 50% fewer, and probably went about 4 or 5 fewer times this year. Up side was that the dog was fantastic and I did get more pictures of her on point than years past. Also, I never hunted the same place twice and came up with 6 or 7 new spots with birds to add to the old spots. I didn't even get to a few places this year that I normally hunt. Shooting was awful at the start of the season but made a major turn around by the end (which has not carried over on the chukars thus far). Here's to hoping for a good hatch in 2008.
