    I ended up on Team 2, what about you?

    I posted a link in the Target Archery Forum on it with pictures and how we play. See that for the photos! But, set the board out around 25/30 and select a card without partner seeing it and then shoot to add up to 21, so it is pretty similar to just playing 21. Can alter the rules and number to shoot too. We play for hours and really has positive benefits I feel personally.

    Food plots down here are growing well and getting a lot of does feeding day and night but that's about it besides a little buck. All my action and big buck is where I don't have a plot just a ridge an orchard.

    If you get anything good on camera let me know! I have this big 8 I've been calling 'biggie smalls' come through a few nights ago again so I am still locking down his home turf better and he is my main target. Seeing a decent 2.5yr old 6 as well now the last few weeks, filmed him three/four times now feeding in the Ag feild - and my course usual does. I'm going to update some photos soon on here just need to get on my computer so the quality of them loads better

    Pics look good. I had a small bear and a couple different small bucks on my last card pull. That's about it.

    I just got the biggest bear of the summer on camera few days ago. Will get the photo up soon. He is a pig compared to my others and I have a few different shooter bears. I'm full of does, and my big 8 still but no other shooter bucks

    That's awesome! The right G2 had started to shed velvet. I've always wanted that transition photo. Hope he sticks around and roams daylight for you!

    I apologize for the video quality but after 5 years of great work looks like this WGI is finally crapping out as last card pull had 75% videos whiteout BUT I got the largest VT buck i have ever seen on camera! What I would have given for this to have come out with clear quality! once in a lifetime buck here in the 802. Blessed at what my comes across my farm here in the green mountains.
