January 2nd 2003

I hunted hole 7 today with my son-in-law, Doug Cox, and grandson, Tyler Cox. Wayne Owen's group went to hole 4 and killed 3 Mallards.

Hunting at Winchester continues to be extremely poor. Doug, Tyler, and I did not see any ducks low enough to call. We continue to see ducks flying higher in the area and that makes me think that tomorrow is the day that we have been looking forward to seeing arrive. The weather forecast calls for sunshine tomorrow and maybe the ducks will be flying our woods.

We finished the day the way we started, with no ducks.

More later,

Royce
