Huntley, IL and the same way I met them via the net. I go way back to the huntingnet.com days with JZ, DukeMichaels, and Todd. I've been helping with the www.facebook.com/bowhunting page pretty much since it got started. So hopefully we win this thing so I can post it up on there. :-)
Oh we gonna win this thing. When you tag a doe fitz you should the team name on camera. Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
I am hopefully gonna pull some cards this Friday morning as long as I do t have to work that night Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
I will be pulling cards Friday as well when I go back in to bait. Interested to see if my boy has come back to visit me
finished all my RIPs this afternoon... and got my Trophy Taker A-Tacs in the mail They're nasty looking heads but not as big as I'd like for deer. Probably save those for elk. I will probably stick to the Muzzy HBs and/or Magnus Black Hornets if I can get them to tune; which shouldn't be a problem. I lost a buck last year on poor penetration and it really, really pissed me off. I want to punch through so I am going with heavy hitting shafts and fixed heads.
I pulled a couple of cards today and only got one good buck on camera. The beans are starting to turn a little here so I don’t think they are feeding on them as much. Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
the field behind my house started turning this week as well. I'm about an hour north of you. That's a nice buck; and looks pretty young still. Maybe only a 3.5? Nice.
Mr. Kaufman informed me today we have a 13th teammate- another BHOD prostaffer and Central Illinois Big Buck Assassin! Frank Clark, aka "Franki" I really like our chances with all the IL and WI hunters we got on the team. IN and OH, too. Who needs Iowa??? Here's a segment of Frank's hunts from a couple years back:
Yeah, I joined the forums shortly after the switch from HuntingNet. Found out through chatting here that JZ's dad owned property a couple miles from my cabin in WI. Also found a kindred spirit in Dan (Schafer) who was helping Mod the forums at that time, he and his wife ran a fishing camp north of us in Canada. Ended up being brought on as a moderator, then Admin, went to out to PA to help with the booth at the Great American Sports Show, found out Todd went to UMD in Duluth where I went to school. After that I started doing some work for them, graphic design, Social, etc and put in my application to the show since I'd been filming the previous year. I continued working for them until this winter when I reluctantly backed out of things due to time constraints (with my Marketing company taking off in addition to the resort and a 3 yo son). Todd said I couldn't leave the show until I shoot a buck. So, I may be on BHOD for decades to come!
Love the video Fitz, makes me want to get one more trip to the BWCA this year. Looks like we have some heavy hitters on the team, should be a good year.
