Good luck Mike - hopefully we can see some success pics. I'd say your calendar will be pretty crowded as tax time approaches. Hey - I can deduct my student loan interest, right? Good luck on your hunt - I'm fiendin' for some fresh hunting stories.

Troy - have you found any of this years' sheds yet? I went out for a walk Saturday morningw/a friendand wefound a dead 9 pointer (about 14"), but no sheds.It was amainframe eight with a 2" kicker coming off the back of the left beam right at the G2. Whew did he stink - the meat was eaten, all that was left was a rotten fur with with some inedible guts.My friendthinks it was a buck that his neighbor hit in rifle season, so we're sending him in there to get it. Stunk too bad to carry out, and no saw. He'd have been a really nice buck this season. BTW - I hope that fender bender works out for ya - insurance adjusters can be ruthless.

Rybo - Nemacolin Woodlands is having a coyote hunt ($5/team) sometime soon. I think my calendar is crammed, but if I enter a team, I'll shoot you a PM, and you can jump in the fray if you like. Not much on my agenda (hunting-wise)between now and spring turkey - just gotta get out there and shore up some new ground and scout.

Button - good luck getting settled in with the new house

Hoosier - just keep an eye on the turkey forum - there's a lot of useful info there. It takes a lot of practice - but if you can mimic the sounds, eventually you will succeed.

I swear, I have no freetime anymore. I'm getting married in June, so this wedding is really a lot of work, and is eatin' up my free time.We'regetting married inPunta Cana, DR. Should be fun, but more hassel than I planned on...

Troy - I still owe you for the shirt.

My fiancee is really wondering what XX means, she's convinced that it's stripclub-related, but the names on the back really throw her for a loop. LOL It's one of those deals where girls get inquisitive about something (no matter how stupid) and if you're just cryptic enough in your answer, they really start to wonder, and it turns into a big deal, which really gets funny. The more she wonders, the more I wear it.
