    It looks like the state of indiana is well represented on our team. I will be driving thru the hoosier state in november on my way to kansas to hopefully arrow a nice buck.

    Sounds like you'll be strolling right through my county if your coming from Maine. Toll road 80/94 ???

    All I can say is Indiana is definately a sleeper state. Not much mention when it comes to magazines and tv shows.

    Hope you enjoy the drive through dmen and good luck in Kansas too!!!

    Just got done trying out my new bloodrunners. Definitely the route I'm going to take.

    I hunt mainly in central Indiana. We don't have a lot of woods, but we have plenty of corn. Myself, I just hunt mom my mom and dad's 20 acre farm. It produces, except the last few years have been a struggle due to drought issues.

    Big stick, love the MINUTE state. I was up there on business a couple months ago. There was a flock of turkey at the Minneapolis airport!

    Yep I'm a rookie to this contest too. It is only my third season hunting for deer and all three have been in different locations. I don't have any land personally, but I've done a ton of scouting on public land and am planning on asking permission for some in the next couple weeks.

    I didn't grow up around here, I'm from North of Chicago originally, made my way out to Iowa, lived in northern Minnesota for a season and now live just North of the Twin Cities. The turkeys around here always crack me up. I've seen them walking down sidewalks in southern Minneapolis.

    I write computer software and am an all-around computer guy indynotch, what do you do?

    My name is Ryan by the way.

    Welcome Brandon. Looking forward to getting to know you better. You have anything lined up?

    Ryan, I'm an engineer for a forklift factory. Until this, my background has been mainly in diesel engine production and testing.
    Brandon? Eric? Others?

    I currently sell insurance for Allstate with my father. He has been an agent for 28 years and is showing me the ropes. Not sure if I like it yet, sitting down all day is really hard after you've worked for a home builder for 5 + years.

    Welcome Brandon, looking foward to a great team effort with all of us :rock:

    I have 4 bucks that will definately all go over 130", with two of those probably reaching into the lower 40's. Hopefully some more show up now over my new buck fever synthetic mock scraps.

    I will be here sporatically until my power comes back. I have a couple of decent bucks i am after, one is in the 180's. Plus when i go to kansas the sky is the limit. This is my second year in the contest on this site, i was also in the contest on the dredded"other"site.hopefully my scoring will be better. I taped my buck at 134 and change last year, then when it was scored at my taxidermist it came in at 141.

    What's up all? My rookie season on here as well. My home turf is in Massachusetts where I'll be hunting a private 20 acre piece of land that I'm living on. I've seen two nice bucks on a regular basis. Ill also be spending a lot of time in NH where I'm from originally. Not betting on any monsters there. My big hunt is in KS in November. Hunting private land in Woodson county for 6 days. Couldn't be more excited!

    Looking forward to everyone having a great season!

    Hey Chris, welcome and glad to meet you. I hope a booner comes out of the adjoining woods because right now I don't have much to write home about and my hunting buddy is finishing up medic school so we don't have any big hunts planned.
    Pretty cool you northeast guys go out to Kansas. If you have trunk space I can make myself small and am quiet lol.
    Dmen those sound like some very nice bucks.

    I sent messages to everyone but Hoytultrasport cause he's been around awhile and will probably check in the next time he gets on. I've been knocking around a couple other team's pages and it looks like we need to come up with a team name and a team avatar. Anyone got any ideas on what they wanna be called?
