will let you know. i won't have any pics no trail cams, i wouldn't want to leave them out there on pub land anyway.
Yeah no doubt! I dont blame you there. Not a problem though, it matters what you tag, not what you get pictures of. Glad youll get some good scouting in and cant wait to see the results. How much you going to get to hunt this year?
every saturday for sure. all of thankgiving weekend. and oct. 19-21 on a quota hunt on president's island in memphis. that one is doe or spike only (i can get 2). probably around 20-25 days
20-25 is a good bit of time man! Sounds awesome...Im fired up for you man. Hopefully some more of the team starts showing up so we can see what they are all up to!
i know littlechief will be where i hunt a little bit, he also has arkansas,missiouri and he is going to ohio during the rut there. so he will have some good opprotunities.
haha sorry buddy...excited to use your product next year, but even more excited for the congratulations message from you on Jan 15th when its official that we beat you!
oh, right on! yes i to look forward to using his product next year, but the congrats to us will be sweeter!
Same here brother. So as of right now we only have four of us that have checked in. Hopefully some of the other guys will show up soon. I think that this is going to be a good year. I'll be kicking the season off on the 15th of September on a weekend hunt in Missouri. I'll be spending some time hunting Tennessee during the early season and a lot of time hunting Arkansas during the later season, but the highlight of this season will hopefully be my upcoming 9 day rut hunt in Ohio. Some personal info: I'm 48, but this only be my sixth year bowhunting. I retired from the Navy in 2008 and I've been working at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital since then. My youngest kid is left for Navy boot camp on the 25th of July, so being a new "empty nester", I'll have every weekend available to hunt plus any additional days off. That's a lot of hunting time. I'm relatively new to bow hunting, but I'm lucky enough to have killed a lot of deer the first five seasons. I've yet to get what I would call a big buck with my bow, but I'm hoping that Ohio will change that. I can pretty much guarantee at least 100 points for the team, but I'm really shooting for more like 190 to 200 points.
Sounds awesome buddy! And thank you a ton for your years of service and for your youngest for starting to do the same. Sounds like a pretty action packed season heading your way, Im excited!
Well, I certainly hope it's an action packed season. I can't wait to hunt in a place where there's actually a chance of seeing a 160-180 class buck and a good chance of getting one in the 140 class. Even if I don't actually kill one it will be awesome to see them for a change. I've got to say, though, that if a 110-120 walks in front of me in Missouri or Tennessee before I go, I'm probably not going to let him walk.
Buddy a 110 plus a doe would be huge for us! Heck if we can all do our best at getting a doe each and then a third of us gets a buck over or near 100" were gonna be in the running. I have a 120" min for myself in PA and 110" in NY, so hopefully I can bring a half decent buck in for us. I have bucks over 150 on my PA property, especially during the rut, but I wont pass a 120". And, they are starting construction on a pipeline through my property either nov or dec, so that can kill my rut hunt. Im praying for dec!
Man I know its to early to worry but I do hope these other teammates show up soon. I would like to not have to worry about the alternative list and just keep team 34 the way it is. So many names I never heard that I was getting forward to getting to know.
I hope they show up myself because it looks like we'll have a pretty decent line-up. A couple of them have been online here since the teams were drawn. One of them was online today but didn't check in. Realtree24 hasn't been back online since he put his name on the list back on July 23rd. We'll see I guess.
I sent messages to all of them and heard back from afrelich39 today...I responded and told him to check in when he gets a chance. Im guessing he logged on just because he got my message. Im sure once he gets my last one he will come on and introduce himself.
yes i hope the others check in as well. ready to meet them and get this party started. i agree if all can get a doe and a third with decent bucks we are in the running. i am ready to go. only25 days and a wake up. so stoked.
