    I should do the same.

    I'm 31 and live in SW MN and do ag research for the U of M as well as farm and have cattle. Have a wife and 2 young kids; 4 and 1. Honestly have little time to hunt like I would like anymore but do try to get out as much as possible. Hunt all private ground that we own and have about 5 bucks that I would love a chance at this fall.

    I guess i should introduce myself as well.

    My name is Justin. I’m 27 about to be 28 in a couple weeks. Me and my fiancé are expecting a baby boy October 30th. I work at a courthouse in the Treasurer’s Office. Hunt mainly private in Indiana. We also just bought a house and will be moving in October 1st. I’ll be getting out every chance i get before the baby comes. Checked cameras today and both main target bucks have disappeared which is usual for this time of year. Another buck that my buddy calls one eyed willy because he is blind in one eye keeps showing up in daylight but he is only 3 1/2 maybe 4. Here is a photo of him. I don’t know if I’ll shoot him this year or not. IMG_5596.JPG

    It will probably be hard to let him walk when I probably won’t have too much time to hunt this year. Whats everyone’s set up? I know mine is in my signature but i like seeing everyone’s set up lol. Here is mine. IMG_5491.JPG

    Mission sub1 crossbow. First year hunting with it. Got it shooting tacks freehand. Can hit 8 ring on elk target from 106 yards, so 40 on a deer should be great

    Last years buck. I usually try for big bodied bucks but won't hesitate to shoot a doe as well. I was lucky enough to be on a winning team back in 2011. I also am a facebook admin for BHC as well. 3.jpg

    I killed my 2nd bow turkey and it was in Nebraska. No blind, spot and stalk, public land.
    Shot him at 10 yards. Just a jake but was my second time out there trying to get a merriam with a bow. One of my favorite hunts.
