We were going to be 4 men strong today , but Keith couldn't make it ( came down with a last minuet ailment ) ... so the 3 of us headed out at 8:00 am
The Plan was to drop 2 guys in the fence line at one end of the concession walking with shotguns , and 1 guy would drive to the other end and snipe with the rifle ...

The last Jack of the day , made the mistake of coming out on the wrong side of the cedar row for him .... I snapped a couple of quick shots ... switched over to my Remington Model 700 BDL and chased him down with 55 grains of Federal HP's ...
