The season opens here in Arkansas Saturday morning. I planted 9 or 10 acres of Sunflowers around the first of May and mowed them last week. We had birds all Summer until a couple of weeks ago when the weather cooled off. We still have some, but not as many. Hoping they come back. The same thing happened last year and we had the best hunt ever. We will be hunting the same field as last year with mostly the same group. Me, My Brother, Both of my Sons and one Grandson, several buddies and their Wives, Daughters, Sons, maybe another Grandson or Granddaughter. About 20 in all.
We'll start gathering up at my house on Friday afternoon, go shoot some clay targets, cook some burgers and have a drink or two. Saturday morning we will have breakfast and go hunt. After we hunt we will return to my house for a fish fry. After that the crowd will start thinning out. Some of us will hunt that afternoon and the next day. But the big blowout will be on opening day. Watching what Harvey does to our weather!
