Hope everyone is able to make it, BUT, just letting y'all know that the birds don't seem to be here. Maybe they will show up next week. Have less birds this year than I ever have. Just letting everyone know, because I know some people has a long drive to get here. Like I said, hope everyone can still make it, just letting you know, not a lot of birds here YET. Maybe they will come on.

I reckon me a bob will hang back and drink beer down here. Way to let us down

I'll still be there. Lookin foward to meeting some Aldeer folks. The birds will come DW

Top notch guy DW. I wish I could make it but I have to work. Dang a dove just take more beer.

I don't give a shucks if a single bird shows up. I just love a good get together with good folks.

I thought this was about drinking beer... You mean we're actually gone shoot birds.... Oh well... If they ain't no birds... I'll have someone throw my empty beer cans in the air and I'll shoot them.... I'm shooting something dammit!!!

We will be there! If there aint any birds, thats just more beer drinking and football listening time.

Sounds like a plan

I always like the spirit of this place! Yall all have fun and be safe. Putting on one up at my farm or I'd be right there with Yall.

Thanks for the heads up. I am still planning on driving over.

Don't drank no mo....

Sorry, I didn't get the memo that hell has frozen over.

Nor many folks would be that honest especially on a donations only hunt. I hope they show up for yall. You just never know what it will be likee until the evening before.

Wish I could send some your way. I bushogged a 5 acre field filled with my summer cover crop of sunflowers, peas, and sorghum-sudan a week ago. Went to disc it all in yesterday and I ran out more birds than I could count. It's a shame on my field is unsafe to hunt because of mobile homes around it or I'd invite some of y'all over.

They'll show up I'm sure.

You mean I'm going to drive two hours just to drink beer and socialize with you bunch of goobs? Sounds good to me !

i aint got a bunch of birds but normally keep a few, didnt seem to be getting as many. But went and put some decoys out last week. And thought for sure they'd be comeing good with the cooler days. Sure enough yesterday that started showing up. So dont lose hope. I think the decoys help. Seen a guy that would take empty water bottels and spray paint them gray. He would stick them in the ground at about 45 degree angle. I dont put out many usually 4 that I bought on sale at walmart. down to 2 now though. I put them so they get best visability on fly over, kinda close to a power line.

Someone needs to bring some clay birds.

Or no less

I will still be there.

I'm still planning on coming unless it turns into a queer dove shoot again!
