"A huge congratulations to Team 10, Nocked & Loaded!

With a total of 1312 1/2 points, they beat out the second place team by 289 1/8 points.

They harvested 7 does & 8 buck ranging from a Fergie Clause buck to a 170 7/8 monster!

Great work guys and gal Sticknstringarchery will be gatherinng your contact information for me."


We came in 7th I think, and we only shot 5 does. So if we each shoot one, plus as many bucks as possible..we will be up there.

 

Thanks, I was looking for that, lol.
Yeah if we all take a doe +600pts
If we take bucks for an average of 100" each then we could beat that score by almost 500 pts.

Of course that means if only half of us take bucks that means they need to be 200" class bucks to hit that average, lol.

 

Exactly what I am saying... so If you can get a doe down early/late whenever....get one down. And shoot whichever buck you want! With this strategy, and some of the bucks our team has on cam, we should do good. Just my opinion.

 

Hey boys checking in. I like what I'm reading so far. Looks like we have some guys that truly get into this whole bow hunting thing. For me personally it's an obsession. I've been at for about 15 years or so. Live in Nebraska and hunt two areas in the SE. Generally don't get too excited until they hit 130 plus. After that they may be in trouble... lol. I typically hunt with a buddy year round "Drenman" and most years we've got at least a couple that we chase over 150. Not sure what's out there right now however? We're taking the same approach we had last year and staying out of he woods until open day. At that point we'll get the trail cameras set up. Once I've got some pic's I'll get them posted. Well that's it for me. Don't care either way on the name although I do have to admit I loved Bowjobs... LOL

 

Guess I forgot to mention that my name is Jassen (yes it pronounced Jason)... I get that question a lot

 

Welcome Jassen, where abouts in NE are you? Where do you hunt there?

 

Well I'm not far from Fairbury. I live in Lincoln but hunt around Wilber and Burr. Is this going to be your first time hunting Nebraska?

 

Yessir, I may start a little side convo with you for some questions/advice!

Anyhow, welcome to the team!

 

Welcome jassen!

 

I certainly intend to poke a doe... Bucks? If he is better than last years, I won't hesitate! Bad thing is, the buck I shot last year was the only one I saw all season!

 

I like it, I like it a lot!

 

Hey fellas, sorry I am a little late checking in. I live and hunt in Kansas, but also hunt Illinois a good bit as well as down in Alabama and SC. Manage to put a pretty good buck down just about every year and between all the states I hunt I will kill anywhere between 5 and 15 slicks. Killed 9 with the bow last year (I don't get tired of shooting those nannies!).

I have got some major issue with my hunting this year - I HAVE TOO MANY BUCKS TO HUNT. I am serious...I will post a few pics when I get home. Anyway, glad to be a part of the team!

 

Glad to have you, Cunninghamww!!!

 

Thanks for checking in and welcome aboard! Sounds like we have yet another super team member! It would be hilarious if we wound up being a dark horse in this competition, lol.

I'm sure some of the team could help you out with tha tproblem *wink wink* lolol. That's a great problem to have, I generally see enough young and cull bucks to fill a shed too. I may loosen my self imposed restictions this year though if it starts getting late and I haven't taken a buck yet.

Haha, all this talk about all my deer and something will probably happen and I won't see a single deer all year...maybe I should shut my yap, lol.

 

I just had a thought, instead of us all using the logo for an avatar, I can make a universal sig tag to put in our signature lines and then we can all keep using whatever avatars we want!

I should have thought of this sooner...

Cool, it worked...check it out

The thing is...they aren't cull bucks! At this point I have 13 different bucks that I know of that are 4.5 or older. I have hunted some of these farms for several years now and it seems the stars have just aligned this year.

 

Shouldn't have put "too" in there, lol.
That's great though, hope you smack a monster!!!! Don't forget the pics, lol.

 

Here is "ferguson..."
I think he will gross 190-200, has 17 score able points that I can tell, and I don't think it's a stretch to say he might have 70"s of mass. Couldn't catch up with him last year and I am glad! He was maybe mid 160 and just blew up this year.

 

Welcome Cunningham! Shouldnt have an issue with the doe idea at least lol! Put them pics up. Same with everyone else post up some pics of your target bucks!!!

 

Did the pics not show up in my last post?
