Greg the weather was unbelievably warm here also on Sunday. But our pheasants have almost disappeared after three brutal winters and cold wet springs. Same with whitetails. I hunted the whole regular and muzzleloader seasons without seeing a deer in my unit! My friend hunts on a ranch north of McClusky and the party saw 26 does opening weekend and not a fawn with any of them and the three does they shot were dry.
Still a few sharptails hanging on though.
