Did a trip up to Republic with the NWTF state board and wife's for a couple of us. 12 birds all together. 2 of us tagged out. I tagged out last evening we hunted. Last 5 minutes of shooting hours left. 4 birds 3 shots. I learned adrenaline will make you do stupid things. Shot the birds on an edge of a hill. 100' to the bottom. Steep but walkable well for people don't have a jacked up back. 3 went to the bottom. One was on the edged as I walked over to pick it up it did a flop and down it rolled so what did I do. I went right down with it. Sliding down the hill feet first. I stayed even with the bird the first top 1/4 of the hill bit it beat me to the bottom. Picked up the 4 birds then looked up and said to my self what did I just do. Well a climb up pretty gassed. I am paying for it today. I also never gutted 4 birds so quickly. All and all a great weekend. Some said something about a grumpy Squatch sighting there to. My wife
