We all want to win but having fun with your team and interaction with each if half the fun. Team name suggestions: Dirt Nap Dozen Top Pin Terrors So here is a little reminder of what the winners were last year.

Will update the first post as others check in but here's mine My name is Eric and will be hunting in central NC and possibly a few runs up in Va. I don't have a big piece of land but I work it pretty hard and hope to have a solid season. Last year was my first bow hunting season. Got a couple shots off but no luck. The positive to it all is I've learned a lot and practiced a ton to make sure that doesn't happen again. Good luck everyone and look forward to getting to know everyone. My season starts Sept 7th so hopefully I'll get a doe down quickly and wait for a good buck.
m3shadle(Matt) checking in from Central WI. Had a blast last year in the contest. Looking forward to getting to know the team! Sent from my SCH-R760 using Tapatalk 2
Wassup!! Let's do this!! I'm Jeremy a lot of friends call me Remy. Checking in from and will be hunting RI. I have a pretty good feeling about this year. Its my second season bow hunting but I've been deer hunting since I was 13. I'm 34 now. Haha. I harvested a doe last season but no buck. I'm hoping and looking forward to getting a shot on a buck I have trail cam pics of. He's definitely a nice buck for my area.
I'd like to be the first to suggest a team name if that's something we're doing and voting on. I suggest "Top-Pin Terrors" if that's not already taken by another team.
Great to meet you both. Looking forward to seeing how the season turns out. Would love to see some trail can pics of some of our hotlist bucks. I've been slack with my trail cams but should have some next week. I'll update the original post with the team name ideas and once the rest of the crew checks in we can vote. I do like top pin terrors. I always liked anything dirt nap related. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free
Great to meet you too Eric. I'm super excited about getting to know everyone on the team and have a blast this season. This is my first year using a trail cam and its gonna develop into another obsession i can tell already. I have had 2 bucks show their faces to my moultrie. One is a pretty decent 8 point, he's no beast or anything but is a really good deer for my area and me. He's definitely my main target buck so far. Haven't really named him yet.
Nice. I'd take him without second thought. Where I am he's huge. I just don't see many big ones. It is only my 2nd year on my current lease and we just have way too many does. Thinning the doe population is a big priority for me. Hope to get anything over a 6 and I'd be happy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free
Hey everyone! My name is jeff and I live and hunt in NW Ohio. The area I hunt is near a large metropark area and it holds some really good bucks. Hopefully this year I actually connect on one of them. Does are plentiful and I get urban tags so I hope to get at least two. I look forward to getting to know all of you. Best of luck to everyone this season.
Good to have you Jeff. What part I Ohio? I am originally from Akron. Would love to see you put a big one down. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free
Checking in My name is brent and i hunt northern illinois. Been bowhunting 15 years now. Been running a couple of trail cams for a week now. Here are 2 that are good. Last year i didnt shoot anything cuz the ehd hit pretty hard in my area. We shall see what the bucks look like this year. Good luck everyone
Good to have you Brent. Good looking deer right there my friend. So when does everyone's season start? I get to sling arrows on Sept 7th if I'm lucky.
Drew here....from central PA. Hunting a new property this year, as well as some state game lands that I've hunted for years. Just got my cameras out this past weekend, so no pics to share. The camp owner where i'm hunting does have a few decent bucks on his cameras from the past few months though. I'll be turning 40 this fall. Only my third season with a bow, but have hunted this area since I was 12.
I'm a little superstitious when it comes to showing off my trail cam pics. So you guys will have to trust me for now http://i1049.photobucket.com/albums/s385/matt_dog_01/WGI_0252_zpsd22d67db.jpg?t=1376967925
Checkin in Team 12, how's it going everyone?! I'm Fred, I hunt a couple of spots in southern Illinois and a little property in Wisconsin. I usually take a few deer per season, including some wall hangers. Hopefully I can keep the streak going. Really looking forward to this season guys, Let's Rock and Roll!
Welcome aboard Fred. I have a very good feeling about this season. I think we can make some noise in this thing
