    Works for me!! I like the I'm a Thwacker text as well... As for the logo I like the deer in it. I don't mind any of the color combinations either.

    If I had to choose I would choose the middle choice of logos. The white and gray logo with the deer and Thwackers in red.. I think that looks sharp!

    WE ARE THE THWACKERS!!!! I will see if I can mess with the logo a little bit when I get home, unless you guys are happy with one of those. It really doesnt matter to me. Im just ready to get our team to the top.

    You guys can post pictures of what youll be targeting this year.

    Hi guys. I hunt mostly eastern MO but also some northern MO. Here is the buck i shot last year at one of my local spots.

    DSCN1906.jpg

    Over the past couple years I have had some real good deer on camera and have seen a few monsters in the distance. The landowner hasn't told me of any good deer being shot last year so hopefully they are sticking around and getting a little bigger. I'll be checking cam Friday afternoon. Here are a few pics from years past.

    PIC_0031.jpg PIC_0002 (2).jpg PIC_0011.jpg bigbuck2.jpg bigbuck.jpg

    The last three are of a particular buck that skirted across the field at 90 yards and the best I could get of him as he was walking away was that grainy photo. I still have dreams about him as he was the biggest I have seen on hoof. I don't have any cam pics from last year because I didn't run my cameras after shooting my deer.


    Looking forward to sharing the season with you guys.

    Matt

    I should add that that landowner told me she saw a buck that she said "Makes your deer from last year look like bambi" drinking out of her horse trough.

    If only I can get him to pose for the camera before season!!!

    Matt, It really doesnt matter to me. Its only for one week once the other matt goes to Hawaii. If you want it, you got it.

    Awesome deer by the way. That blurry one looks real nice!!! :tu: Hopefully he comes closer to you this year.

    I'm hoping this second guy is still around. I didn't hear of anyone shooting him last year. Only one neighbor that I don't see or know of deer that are shot. They don't hunt very hard.

    First picture is bad picture of a deer that walked past new camera and stand this year. Only some of antlers. Thought I would put a picture of my buck last year. Not close to 197. Ha

    I'm liking the first logo!

    I've only been able to put cameras up on one property and do one card pull so far and this is the "biggest" I've seen :lol:

    WGI_0033.jpg

    I know we don't have a lot of huge deer in this area (right near PA/MD line) but this just looks like a big fork or a 3x3 with tiny brow tines. My buddy and I will be hunting this property opening day so we'll see if we can get a glimpse of him.

    Only other thing I'm looking from this property is a good sized-doe. There's a couple other fork bucks but we'd like to leave them for the next few years.

    I plan on hanging a camera deep in some public land in the hopes that it'll be there when I return and have something worthwhile on it. Hope to hang that this Friday and check back on it on the 10th or the 11th.

    Season opens in 10 days!

    Actually, just went through my pics again and think the IR pic might be the same as these other two daytime pics. What do you guys think?

    In that second pic I'm pretty sure he's got a tiny brow tine.

    What city do you live close to? I live like 10 minutes from the PA/MD line in Central PA. Right above Hancock, MD.
