Small game a bust for me this year.

Besides the NJH Towershoot this where I shot 3 pheasants (3 short of the limit), small game was pretty much a bust for me in Jersey this year. I got 1 hen bird on a non-stocking day in December and a woodcock in the beginning of November. This was probably my worst year of hunting for me overall since my 2nd year when I harvested nothing. But that is hunting.

As a side note. No deer either.

sometimes i think deer just parachute out of sky.
hunting is not a competition of man vs man but rather a accomplishment of man vs nature
