    Awesome rb. I kept checking for notifications since you were out and I just had a feeling. Great to hear. Looking forward to some pics and hear about it. You earned it

    This season has been one of the toughest I can remember. I worked hard for this one. Had four bedded down for over an hour and a half. The landowner drove past my stand with me in it and made a big circle around the field causing them to get up and finally head my way. Made a perfect shot at 15 yards. She didn't make it another 30 yards.[​IMG]

    Congrats guys, with rb's doe that puts you up just shy of 145, pretty sure team 4 members have wrapped up their seasons. Dropping a 150 class this time of year in the north is next to impossible. A rack that heavy has probably shed already.

    We kept you within reach until yesterday :lol:

    I hope you’re right too Cls, but still not unheard of. When the final time is gone I’ll start feeling calm about it. It’s been a heck of a season to say the least and nothing would shock me.

    No worries guys, our last two hunters are finished for the year.

    What an unreal season, never in a hundred years would I have thought over 1550 points would be on the losing end of things. You guys wound up with a 144 2/8 point victory.

    Until rb's doe you had a 94 2/8 lead, one decent buck or 2 fergie'ishes was all we needed.

    Both teams put a Booner down, impressive stuff!

    Size Matters= 1,701 7/8

    Fall Legends= 1,557 6/8

    Well since you put it that way...

    Definitely did not expect it all to play out like this. Your guys score shoulda won it 99% of the time, I’m glad we hit the time it didn’t. Congrats to a great season for both teams

    Me too RB! I sent the text to the neighbor that hunts also. We went to high school together and have shared pics all the time. We work together and I like that. I told him that no one else will know about this guy in our area. LOL

    I took cameras down to clean them and put new batteries in them. They will be back out here tomorrow if I get it done. I go in for an interview for a promotion tomorrow so that is what I need to worry about first. Hope I get the new spot.
