    Spent the weekend in Kansas setting stands, clearing shooting lanes and setting up cameras. The sign looks good so far. I jumped to differ bachelor groups. There were numerous does and fawns around. 2 farms and 7 stands. It was a good weekend.

    Looks like the mass mailing only brought in a few more people. I thought it would have been a lot more.

    Well how is that helpful? I'm the president of our local NWTF chapter and when I send out mailers, I go back 3 years. Sometimes events in people's lives happens and they forget and just need a trigger.

    I really can’t answer your question because the big boss made that decision. :lol:

    I do think that limiting the timeframe will will result in fewer overall sign ups but I also think that most of those who do sign up will be better at participating.

    If they need a "trigger" to be informed of the contest, they probably ain't much of a member?

    Saw batchelor group Sunday evening on my neighbors property. There were 10 bucks, and 7 were nice. I didn't get a picture of all of them or the biggest one. September 23 can't get here soon enough. 20230813_195340.jpg 20230813_195445.jpg
