Went out Sunday to set a stand in my favorite tree and found that lightning had hit a nearby tree and caused limbs to fall across two trails leading to my favorite tree. I've always thought about moving the stand to the north about 40 yards so I took this as a sign from above that this is the year to move it. This is the first stand I've put up so far and I have to say,it sure did feel good to be sitting up in a tree again.

I hope to make my final preparations on Saturday or Sunday. I need to put up one more stand, mow my clover, plant monster mix where I have Lab Lab now, mow a couple trails, and check my camera and I'll be all set for October 1.

Hey guy's!

I will be hanging a couple of stands this weekend in Mich. My neighbor said he saw a really nice 10 pointer the other day where our land meets his land but he is known to drink a little.....so........????? it may have been a littel bit smaller than thatI am starting to get ready for my opening weekend trip to Wis. on Sept. 16th, can't wait to get there!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Awesome I hope to get back out this weekend and hang a few stands also.

All my stands are out. Currently I have 3, my father has 1 and my friend has 1--so there are 5 stands scattered throughout the woods. I believe I have the best spots--but you never know

I haven't been back up to my stand since I put out my minerals--but my father went up to look and he saw some definate usage out of my main pile.

I can't wait till Oct 1

Ok--I was going to wait and see if someone else was going to ask this question (because I feel kind of stupid asking)--but maybe I'm the only one--so...

I've never scored a buck before--what is the process of getting the score? I'm not even sure if there are different methods, so I don't want to do something wrong.

thanks

I'll be making the 4 hour journey back home to York County to hang stands in my honey hole, i can't wait to get back to the farm the farmer has been telling me tales of lots of deer with a few particularly large bucks

Kriesis- there wasa scoring tutorial posted last year, im tryin to find it for ya...really breaks it down into simple steps.

Have fun hanging those stands! Hopefully you'll see some big deer while you are there.

Ohh--and on the main board--someone asked the same question I did about scoring--and this was the link that was posted if anyone needs it

Yeah, my stands are hung as well in my honey hole trees...it's only a matter of time now.

Who will be the ONE HIT WONDERto put the only deer up on the board from this team?
