I got me another 2 man ladderstand last week from E-Bay. Got to put it together this weekend and find a place to put it up. I've got 4 more places on my property that I want stands. But 2 of them are definately going to have to be ground blinds. No good trees to put stands in. Then I've got to switch my Alpine quiver from my Martin Phantom II over to my Martin Slayr. It's a lot quieter than my old Kwikee quiver. Got to practice some more. Haven't practiced all week. Slacker! LOL Still got 5 weeks to the opener. But time has a way of getting away from me.

Almost in the home stretch. Only a few more days until Sept rolls around. Then the countdown to Oct. 1 officially begins for me.

I am in the home stretch of my countdown...september 10 cant come soon enough!

I've updated our team banner. Welcome Millertime10 to team 17!

Hey guys what's going on? Good to be a part of the team and looking forward to it.

How can I get that banner? I will be on here later, just got that new cheap $96 Moultrie Digital cam from wal mart. Going to go set it out and see how it does. I have heard good things about them, has anyone here heard about them or used one?

Here's how you can add the banner to your signature. http://forum.hunting.net/asppg/fb.asp?m=1169433

Team is completed welcome Miller

Hey Miller. Welcome to the team. I see you're in Oklahoma. Cool! Another Midwestern state. We've got Oklahoma, Iowa, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Wisconsin, Missouri, Maine, and New York. We should have some hawgs on this team this year! I don't know what the deer populations are like in you're states but here in Iowa, they are exploding! We can't shoot enough deer. 150+ class deer running all over the place. This is going to be fun!

Alright guys, a little about myself. I am from the central part of Oklahoma 15 minutes west of OKC. I hunt several woodlots and farmlandin and around that same area. I hunt on my grandpa's land and some land of other farmers in the area. I just turned 24 Saturday andgraduated from collegelast May. Unfortunately, I just got a job in the eastern part of the state 3 hours from where I hunt. The positive is that I will be working 14 days on 14 days off, so that will still allow for plenty of time in the stand on my days off. I am a trophy hunter when it comes to shooting bucks. If I need meat I will shoot a doe. I have 2 deer on the wall (172" and 137")that I shot with a rifle, I have yet been able to harvest a trophy with my bow. A buddy of mine shot a 196" non typical 1/2 mile from where I hunt with his bow last year, so I have good potential in my area. Hopefully I will be able to help our team with a good score and I look forward to Oct 1, it just can't come soon enough.
Here the pics of the 2 deer I have on my wall, just showing the potential I have in my area.


This is my biggest, he grossed 172", has 3 tines over 12" and 27" main beams
