I live a little ways west of Pearl Harbor, and work on Ford Is. My season started Mar 1, but I'm flying over to the Big Island to hunt Mauna Kea next week. (3/13-20). I've been hunting Mauna Kea since '00. I started making slate calls in late 2017.
I grew up an Air Force brat across the Southeast US, and my parents and their parents...etc hail from Lafayette, LA to Houston and all points in between.
I'm excited to see pix of everyone's birds. Best of luck to everyone! May you all bust one bigger than the one your dreamed about.
