Re: Team 8

Congratulations to Elkie, Fool, and NJ. This contest is truly inspiring.

Saturday I hung my opening day (gun) stand. It's on a ridge connecting fields of winter wheat, corn, and soy beans to swamp land and thickets. While clearing shooting lanes, I say a huge bodied deer, maybe 225 Lbs, making his escape about 100 yds away in a swampy thicket. Hope to upgrade again this weekend. grin.gif

Re: Team 8

Well guys not a very productive opening weekend for gun season. I did see some small bucks and several does, but it is just to hard to shoot them on opening weekend when I know there are some big bucks walking around. I'll be posting some pics later today, hopefully. I did see a huge 8pt. after dark with my truck lights while driving to pick the wife up at her stand.

Re: Team 8

Was wondering the same myself. I believe Need2Hunt updates once a week. I'd say give a week, then PM Need2hunt after verifying your entry post.

I agree that the scores will tighten up with the gun season coming around. Let's not get too cocky here. Stay focused. I think I'll shoot some BBs today just to re-aclimate myself to iron sights. Just 2 more days 'til gun season!

Awsome job Slaw. I'll take those 13 points anyday. Teacher, rest up and make sure you are over that cold before heading out to the woods.

Well, the crop fields I was hunting off of Saturday are up to 6 inches under water. I saw two does around 9:00 am 125 yds out, one got blasted just after leaving my viewing area. Yesterday I helped a different landowner plant a tree. Sat for the evening and saw a doe with triplets feeding in the cut corn behind me. It's snowing today, but will warm up a bit tomorrow with light winds from the SW. Might get out if I can get all my ducks lined up.

Keep it going guys.
