Sorry for your families loss. It seems I don't go more than a few months without hearing of a friend or former teammate passing. I get together with 2 friends from out of state for clays once or twice a year and we are heading to GA for quail shortly. My wife understands that we don't knw how many more times we get to share these days. Hopefully you cross paths with a kindred spirit, while hunting alone can be peaceful, it is good to have someone share the ride home and know where you are out in the woods in case of accidents
