Wondering if someone knows how the wing survey works this year?

Wondering if someone can save me a phone call tomorrow.
Two years ago received my wing package with special envelopes marked woodcock wings only. The instructions were to put all the wings from one hunt into the brown envelope than into the white one.
Last year just received regular envelopes with the standard one per envelope instruction.
This year received the special woodcock envelopes but the instructions seem to read one wing per envelope.
Anyone got a handle on this?

I've always put all my wings through the days hunt in the brown envelope and then the brown envelope in the white plastic envelope. Never had an issue.

So fired off an email and the response back is 1 wing per envelope so there you go.

Going to need a lot more envelopes then.......

My understanding is 1 wing/ brown envelope. You can put multiple brown envelope to a white plastic envelope.

I stand corrected.There is 2 different instruction in the package. The white envelope calls for separate brown envelope for each wing but they correct it on the printed instruction sheet. All the wings from a same hunt can go to one brown envelope.

Seems to depend on what package you receive. This year 1 wing/brown envelop/white envelope. At least in regard to email received .....
Hi,
