    I'm here......BH.com member #10
    Been a while since I've spent much time here but I'm getting back in the swing. I'm sorry I only recognize BowHuntingFool so we have some catching up to do as a group.

    I will be hunting mostly SC PA but don't get too discouraged there are a couple good ones in the area.

    Just a quick archery "bio"
    Been bowhunting since 1985
    I think I was one of the first pro-staff guys for Bowtech archery starting back in 2001 and was on their corporate pro-staff for about 8 years until I went to work for them as a Key Accounts manager. Also helped with tech support, and even a little product development and marketing.
    I shot competitive 3D for a few years back in 2005 and 2006 and won some PA and MD state titles and national ASA, IBO events and finished 2nd in the IBO Worlds in 2005. Was on a bunch of national shooting staff/ pro staff deals but just got burned out on the whole competitive shooting thing...... too much time and it wasn't fun anymore. I will still take some local lunch money here and there but don't think I'm going to shoot any sanctioned events anymore.

    Lost count of deer killed in 27 years of bowhunting and have hunted PA, NY, WV, IL, MD
    Oddly enough my best buck to date was shot with a recurve, on public land, in PA. :D

    Currently hunting with:
    Bowtech Invasion, 63#/ 30"
    Gold Tip Ultralight Pro arrows, NAP Killzone broadheads
    Vapor Trail Pro V rest, Axcel sight, Carter Just Cuz release.

    Checking in as well. My name is Kyle and I hunt North-Central Wisconsin and Northern Wisconsin. I have 19 days to go until I can enjoy the best time of the year again. I put in quite a bit of time this spring/summer scouting, with food plots, and putting cameras out in an attempt to get ready for the upcoming season. I have a few nice bucks from last year that I'm hoping are still around and one shooter I have pictures of this year. Best of luck to everyone on the team!!!

    Is anyone good a graphic design? Be cool to have a picture with name but its not that important. I have no idea about team names. I will start brainstorming and see what happens.

    Hey fellas, Joe b! here, I've been bow hunting pretty hard for the past 15+ years and been doing it with a longbow the past 5 years, too much fun! I'm hunting in Iowa Co Wisconsin on my 150 acre lease. I've only checked my cameras one time so far, 5 or 6 different bucks and a few does on one camera. Should be good this season. I also hunt a state forest in Fon Du Lac county which produces some pretty big deer every year! Looking forward to spending this season with you folks!

    Sorry for checking in late, but I'm in! I don't think I will top last year (197 1/8" gross), but I will do my best. Rory
