I called people I knew paid a local hunt club to shoot opening day. All but one had been someone I hunted with in the past. I just think people are interested in opening day or opening weekend and after that their interest drops off almost to zero. This weekend I have three young shooters coming. I think their interest will still be high and they have fewer honey do's to worry about. In fact two of them will be shooting guns I am loaning them and shells I loaded which were going to be unshot. A real shame.
I think instead of doing five small fields next year I'll just do three. It's a shame to have a field which has birds in it and they don't get harvested.
