We were out south of and west of Oyen for a couple of weeks touring around and saw a number of flocks of sharptails and grey partridge. When we hunted the Wainwright sharptail season there were a number of juvenile birds taken. Close to 50% of the total. I did very well on the base hunt with 9 sharptails and 2 ruffled grouse. Several people got into family groups of ruffies.
I had expected the base hunt to be poor numbers and it was actually good.
