    On the quiet side. Even the one that came in around 10 am was silent & behind me & the 1st noise I heard was a "putt". Game over.
    Hope tomorrow is better.

    Well congratulation to the men and women that got one and for those who didn't keep going out there because there is only on way I know of not getting a bird and that's if you don't go.
