My LGS owner and his wife go out about every other week, and get as few as six or as many as thirteen in an evening. Of course, they tell me they go north, but north covers a lot of country.
I pretty commonly shoot 6-8 in a couple hours on the farms I hunt in central NY. One day two summers ago I took my brother and nephew along and we shot 14 between us on the one farm in about 3 hours. We saw about as many that we couldn't shoot because of farm buildings/livestock in the line of fire. That farm and the one next to it are just crawling with woodchucks.
