Pheasant Team Returns to Marietta

During Fall of 07, our group once again returned to the now public Marietta area "wildlife management area" to hunt birds on opener. One of the local farmers allowed us to park the camper on an adjacent farm sight and stay Friday and Saturday night. It was quite a sight early on opener morning when we started to position ourselves along the property's East side; we saw about 9 cars in different areas and then two trucks parked on the side of the road BETWEEN our two trucks....cutting our course in half. Even the state newspapers listed this new wildlife management area as the hottest spot in the state...talk about keeping an area a secret!
All in all there were alot of birds shot...not too many by us; but, the day's weather was great. However, our group is getting older...when our youngest was 53 years old and one 11 year old dog.
