    God I hate you guys. I've still got another week and a half to wait. :mad: Seriously, though, welcome aboard Grant. That deer will be absolutely nasty in a couple of years.

    For everyone else, since Ryan has "volunteered" to be team captain I too say we give him the job. Any objections? We are also in dire need of a team name and an avatar. Three options have been tabled. Which do you prefer?

    I also like the idea of being able to text or call when we put one on the ground. Sounds like a great way to go.

    How about something totally original... Like "The Flying Squirrels" or something else totally crazy that is sure to drive fear into the heart of our opponents....

    Anyone heard anything from "147. RUT" OR maybe I missed their checkin - looks like they are the only team member that hasn't checked in.... Anyone else want to try sending them a PM/message? Not sure how long we should wait before trying to snag an alternate... Maybe till sometime next week?

    I'd say that buck is definitely gonna push 170. Shoot him and then we'll know for sure ;-)

    I'd say we give Rut a week or something, unless Justin wants to figure it out sooner. maybe he'll post something.

    And I'm all for an off the board type of name... just can't think of anything off-hand lol but i'll brainstorm

    Wasssup guys, got into the stand at about 6:25 this morning , had a 4pt walk directly underneath me a little after sunrise...of course he smelled me and looked right at me. Why is it that during turkey season you see a ton of deer, during deer season you see a ton of turkey and during antleress season you see bucks! I'm gonna sit till 1030, maybe a big ole nanny will walk by.....

    Chalk up 50pts for Team 1! We have to call ourselves Team Heart Stoppers after the shot I put on this doe. I've had a trail cam setup on a real hot trail for the last few months, been getting pictures of does just about every AM coming through. I was in stand about 6:25am this morning. A little after daylight I had a small 4 pt come out and walk right underneath me, this was my first deer sighting on stand for the new season and it really got my heart pumping. He literally walked right underneath me, caught wind, and ended up looking right up at me in the tree. (I'm about 18ft up). I was kind of bummed after I got busted, but it was very early and I planned to sit until around 11:00am. A little after 9:00am I look to my left and sure enough 20 yards away 3 does snuck in on me. I grabbed my bow as quick as I could, set my pin on the lead doe, and let her have it. I smacked her real good in the shoulder and watched my arrow burry its way half way into her. She ended up breaking my arrow off about 15 yards away from where I shot her. Found her piled up about 50yards away. I blew right through her front right shoulder and the rage 2 blade put a nice slice right through her heart. I have never shot a deer this early in the season (Early Anterless Hunt runs from the 16-20th) She was shedding her summer coat bad. Team Heart Stoppers is on the board!
