    I'll try to make it work. I'll be hunting 80% new ground more than likely. Might get a few days on my old spot. But it's an adventure. Bring it.

    Can you guys give me a guess on age and score for these deer? I know it’s hard but any guesstimates would be appreciated.

    I'd put them all in the upper 130's to low-mid 130's on the good side with the pics given. Looks like a few could be the same deer as well.

    On my phone with low battery so screen is dimmed.

    None of them appear to have a great spread except possibly the one without ears in the pic(pic 4), all have potential though.

    Didn't notice this thread was up, how's everyone? I've been super busy and haven't even stepped into the hunting woods this year. I have one camera that's been up since December, hope it's still there :eek2:
    Trying to escape this weekend and check some stands, shoot the bow, and put up some more cams. Bought my tags today and looking forward to the season. Good luck out there!

    Of course. But the landowner is kind of a tool so that property might be a bust, we'll see. I still have my lease to hunt in S. Central that's always good for a couple of deer. I wanted to hunt a little more in Wisconsin this year, but my spot landed in a crappy zone with no doe tags, and mature bucks are almost non existent.

    Where do you get this done? I have always wondered where to do it. There a website?

    Good luck @tc racing! As a team mate from last year, I know your team will appreciate it if you put down another big buck. Is this one on public too?

    Glad to see this thread back up and running. Decided to pass on the contest this year just to hang out here!
    Headed to Minnesota tomorrow hoping to whack a few early geese! If ya all want pics and updates let me know, be a far cry from bow hunting but still great fun!
    Good luck to those who will be out soon! Stay safe

    And.... I’m hunting! Was a little too excited and got in my stand at least 2 hours early. Also got my cards pulled so I can check them for the first time this year. Hunting public land currently so we’ll see. First time in this tree and it should be in an awesome spot. This tree moves in the wind, and I’m not used to that. Strangely confident today. I like my setup, haven’t seen a sign of any other hunters and just before coming out I shot one of the best groups I’ve shot in years. Let’s see how it goes! Wind is from the perfect direction too.

    First deer... probably tough to see but it’s a doe.
