We were hearing tons of bugles the day before the opener, while it was still sunny. That night we were so excited we couldn't sleep thinking about what laid in store for us. The next day the rain came in and it seemed to shut them up, couldn't get anything to make a noise. What a let down! Finally, yesterday the sun decided to show and once again they were singing.  Did fill my tag though with an antlerless bull (little guy) but will taste mighty fine.  Taking a couple of days to rest then we will be back out Tuesday to see if we can fill my buddies tag.
