    I've been going through some of the other teams threads. It appears that they're doing about the same as us, setting stands and pulling camera cards. Many of the teams begin to hunt in early Sept. with some not until Oct.

    I got some grievous news today. The property owner that had the biggest deer I ever got on camera told me he thought he saw it dead on the side of the road. I'm despondent over it. I'm gonna go pull the card on the camera and see if I can catch him again. Hopefully it was a different buck.

    No Mike I didn't have time after work today to drive up to go see. But still any nice buck that's road kill in your hunting area is a hard blow. I'll see what the camera reveals in the next few weeks.
    This is the buck I hope it ain't.

    Just checking on "New for 2013/14" game law changes. In the counties I hunt Antlerless now runs from Sept 7 thru April 26. But we do have EAB in those counties also.

    Welcome to the Team!
    This is the first time I'm in the contest too although I've been shooting bows and bowhunting for 50+ years.
    Good luck, post often.
    Copy the sig pic and put it in your sig line.

    Welcome newbie.... I haven't checked cams for several weeks but really haven't had anything tickle my fancy on them so I'm not to worried about going out to check them. Still scouting fairly hard and doing a little bit of waterfowl hunting with my new pup.
