    Alright guys, looks like we've got a pretty good team. Let's get everybody checked in so we can get to know each other. Where's everyone hunting this fall?

    I live and hunt in Central Illinois in some prime whitetail habitat. This is my 3rd year bowhunting and I really hope to put down several does and a good buck this year. My first year bowhunting I killed a 115" 8 point, the smallest buck we've killed off of our main farm. Last year I decided to be picky and pass on anything less than 130". I let several bucks in the 120's walk last year and I ended the season seeing 7 bucks that would go between 130"-170", had several really close encounters, but I never was able to get a shot off- hopefully that changes this year.

    Treehopper here. I hunt Northern Wisconsin. I also drew an Iowa tag so that should help. The farm I hunt in Iowa looks great. I have a great deer I am hunting in Wisconsin also.

    Im here! I mostly hunt public land here in FL but the land I hunt is some of the best in the state for numbers and big deer. Hopefully I can put one down this year!

    It has been a absolute crazy work season this year due to the tornado. I have demolished 23 houses, 12 separate garages, the school bus garage, a a 30,000 sq ft tire shop/ fuel station/full service station. Plus all the work I already had. Needless to say I haunt shot the monster since April. Season opens here on the 18th. No way will I be ready. I am going to start shooting and hit the woods hard mid Oct till I get him.

    Any ideas for a team name?? I was thinking like Heart Stoppers, Double Lungers, Slimed (your arrow after a pass through), Blood Brothers... Those are just a few I had in my head. Any other suggestions??

    I had a slow weekend, didn't have too much action. But I purchased my SD tags today and that opens Saturday. So I'll be hunting hard. I'm goin on a few DIY hunts west river for a muley.
