Those were the meat hunting days, and Grandaddy said he would sometimes kill 50 in a day's hunting. Different times, different circumstances. Probably killed way over half the covey with that one rise. Kinda sad to think about today.

SRH


I would never have repeated that story...

The seven on the ground is believable not sure about six more on the rise.

Getting a little grandpa deep don't ya think.

Just saying.
