    Took Monday and Tuesday off, so it’ll be Saturday-Tuesday. I’m going to try a few all day sits in there.

    This is my guestament using your inside spread measurements and looking at the pics, and I got 82, so looks good to me. Make sure you have your two pics with the bow in them. Was I close on the measurements for only looking at the pictures?

    You were pretty darn close. Short on the main beam and long on the g1s and g2s

    Yeah, the main beams can get tricky bc the curve adds up quick.

    I changed States for this afternoon's hunt. I checked the camera behind my house in Arkansas and found several fresh rubs near my tree stand. There are a couple of good bucks in the area. 20251105_143826.jpg 20251105_143832.jpg 20251105_143855.jpg STC_0030 (3).jpg STC_0033.jpg

    I don't see anything out of place with the score, but I do need the entire score breakdown on your scorecard entry, not just the totals.

    Your addition was fine and your buck has been entered.

    Congratulations again buddy!

    I'll delete my previous post. I don't mind anyone on the forums having my phone number, but I don't want it sitting there for all the "guests" that lurk in the shadows.

    Good luck out there, fellas! I hunted really quickly before work yesterday morning but didn't see anything. Gonna hit it for a couple of hours this afternoon and see if I can get lucky. Then I have to pack all my crap and hit the road for KS tomorrow. It should be fun romping around walk-in ground for a week, fighting all the other guys doing the same thing. I can't wait to see all the bucks moving on trail camera back home while I'm gone. :lol:

    Did you get your cardio so you aren’t at risk of a heart attack?

    Let’s go guys! I’m registered out for the contest. We got a bunch that need a doe! Honestly my wife said to me the other day, “what changed with your hunting? You never saw anything for years and got lucky every once in a while. Now you have deer all around you every time you are out.” I told her that I sit down and shut up. Pressure in Wisconsin and who knows who blowing who knows what call at deer and they get skittish. I have just been sitting there and waiting. Take it for what it’s worth.

    That’s the way I almost always do it too. Sometimes I rattle right at sunset, but that’s about it anymore. I plan on going up Saturday to hunt the pm and then do a few all day hunts while the fronts blow through. Bucks should start breaking free soon around here.

    This is from the 40 acre property my brother in law hunts. Jimmany Christmas, or Gemini crickets, whatever the saying is, but holy 8. He’s heading out there in the am.
