    Oct 1st for Bow and Early goose will start up soon. I am heading to Florida for vacation in two days and will be back on the 24th. I will not be checking my cameras until I get back and in my first hunt.

    Going through some trail camera pics from last year. Hoping some of these boys are still around. Really like the snow pics

    Just worked out my long term schedule with my boss. I won’t be home to do any hunting until oct 13th give or take a few days. After that, work will have slacked off to the point where I can hunt most every day. I cannot wait to get up in the tree!

    I haven’t been home since July though, I think my bow will feel foreign to me when I pick it up haha! I’m thinking about having it shipped to me. Atleast I can dry practice in a hotel room or something.

    I am hoping this guy is still around. I know of two other hunters that passed him due to his double main beam in hopes for a Big boy this year. I hope he is there and gives me the chance to honor him.

    Might be worth looking for some archery ranges in the area. Not sure if you get much spare time while working.

    Yeah, I think that will be my best bet. Last thing I wanna do is wound something due to lack of practice.

    September 28th is opening day in Ohio. Checked one camera the other day (think it’s dying on me because I’m losing color in my pictures) but had this solid looking young buck on it. Could be a good one some day [​IMG]

    There usually is an official score card thread and then an official score card commentary thread. I think the admins are running a little behind schedule. The score card thread is where we need to post 2 pics of yourself, your bow and your deer along with the #s you used to score your buck, date, time etc. commentary thread is where everyone comments in inaccurate scores, not enough pics etc

    He is missing an arrow sticking out of him! Guessing he’s not cooperating?
