6 at best.  Local birds were pushed out very early on.  New birds were sporadic and the big push still hasn't arrived.

Not as many birds as last year but got a new hunting buddy. He had some fun times in the field and got on the geese pretty good.

i would say a 5. we spent almost the whole season figuring out the comlumbia and how to be productive on it. had more bad, less successful days, than good shoots, but we got it nailed down by the end of the year. next year should be an 8-9 i think. i did see my first lusistic hen mallard on the opener, never presented a shot tho, and was able to take a few birds i had never shot before. that was good.

tough to say...7 maybe. i never really got a chance to go out but i did get to go on 2 goose hunts and slam a pile of them. i've never been able to do that so that made my season for me.

10. It was my first season. Only hunted 5 days, two of those I sat in the pouring rain most of the day. Any day outside with a gun or a fishing pole is a great day for me!

A solid 9. I got my first ducks, my first pheasants, got to spend some time in the field with some great people and made a couple new friends. The only reason it's not a 10 is that I didn't get as much time to hunt as I would have liked due to home/family obligations.

Actually one of the better years I've had in a long time. Consistantly had birds all season. Not a ton of lights out done in 20 minutes hunts but decent hunting all season. Real similar to the 99 season in a lot of ways.

Did great but did not see a lot of birds or make it out enough. Lets just say I didn't miss many shots. Had my best shoot ever. Got a triple reloaded and got another triple out of the same flock. Jumped a big flock of mallards and teal and came up with five mallards and 1 teal.
 Lost the only private access I had because the property was sold off.
But even with lack of access anywhere ended the season with 73 ducks.
Maturity is when you have the power to destroy someone who did you wrong but instead you breathe, walk away, and let life take care of them.

Elk hunting the Bethel unit was bone dry this October...
The Muleys in eastern washington seemed to be a bit more scarce and weary in my sage spot
Birds were pushed hard so shot opportunities were few and far inbetween
Yotes were plentiful... hmm maybe says something about my Muley spot which is also my current yote spot.......
