    You got that right! Been a while since I had that many bucks move into mature category. I guess it is a good year for me not to have an out of state whitetail hunt planned lol. Most of my PTO will be going to my WI black bear tag. Only took 14 years to get it :rant:

    Team 5....

    The Dwayne Jones Award - honestly shouldn't just go to the biggest buck, but to the man that exhibited the best behavior for his team. Dwayne was a man whose smile was contagious and encouragement was endless.

    The team which wins the forum contest, will be asked to privately submit votes to myself of who on their team exhibited the most Dwayne like behavior; stayed active, encouraged check ins and was always keeping the team going if you will...perhaps especially even in the face of adversity themselves or a teammate. In short, they behaved like that of a true team member that everyone always loves having on their team.

    It isn't an MVP award in the sense of who provided the most points, but who provided the most to the team in every sense of the of the word (could be the same, but not the intent).

    So Team 5, I need to know who each of you feel deserves the award. I truly want it to be swayed by no one, so if you disclose your vote here or attempt to encourage a vote a certain way here I'll not count your vote or any votes which are placed after. Please respect this small request.

    Message me as you can...tagging each team member:

    Congratulations to Team 5. You took the lead pretty early in the season and were able to hold on to it. Well done!

    And we decide when you reach the appropriate level of flogging, while reserving the right to resume said flogging at any time.

    @Happy @Heckler if you both could cast a vote for the Dwayne award that'd be great, like to go to the local business to design and order

    Big congrats on the win this year Team 5! 15 deer entered is a pile of deer. You guys have a great group and I am sure you are already looking forward to going for the repeat. The rest of us will do our best to make sure that doesn't happen. :evilgrin:

    Casting is closed for Team 5. No available Stripes characters left. At least not any good ones...
