Al and Wood came to the line at 11:46 am

LF – Nice Job!

RF –  Out to the guns – cut across to the bird!

RR – Straight out to the blind – 1 circle deep and left then into the fall area and his bird.

LR – Split between blinds – kept going deep – all the way to the trees, but he worked his way back and found his bird.
