30-Team "Double Lung" Official Thread

Just wanted to let everyone know that the broad heads are flying right with the field points this year. I had to switch heads this year because Gary is having problems getting the blades for the slick tricks. I picked up the Wac'em's and they are dead nuts on with the FP's. Guess I must have tuned my bow right huh?
First year doing everything myself and it is the first year I have NOT had to redo my sites for broad heads.Nothingwrong withmy proshop he is just too busy to really fine tune everything.

Everyone have a busy weekend. I am guessing so since we were all gone from here. My trail camera (Cuddeback) keeps failing. Long story and I can tell more of that later. All looks good for us though as we got 4 new stands hung. We had a tornado move thru just over a year ago and it really messed up our season last year. Really changed the deer patterns with all the big trees that came down.

Busy weekend here as well. Went home to the UP for the baptism of my brother's daughter, so that shot Sunday for outdoor things, but Monday we got some work done. We bear-proofed the two feeders and hung a stand and shot our bows from a couple different elevated platforms. I have been screwing around with diaphragm turkey calls and I saw some turks and called to them, and the actually answered! I was so pumped! Pretty good weekend, just too much driving.

Mike that is cool that you got them to answer. I know what you mean about being pumped. Getting these stands hung just has put me on the edge. We now have 9 stands for 3 of us. All hang-on's but that works great for me. Glad to hear you have been shooting from trees. I hope to do some of that this week or next at the club. Otherwise I am ready to go. I am shooting better now then I ever have. I have not let a proshop touch my bow since I got it. I just put strings from John (Gibblet) on and tuned everything my self. I bought a press and made that draw board. I think doing it myself gets it done much better and I really don't understand how you can tune a bow for someone else.
On another note have you heard from AK? I see Rob is asking if anyone needs replacements. I hate to do that to him as I see he has been on here for a long time with a lot of posts. Maybe you can shoot him another message.

Hey guys, Here are some pics of my foodplot project I have going in Bradford County, PA for those not in the wildlife management forum. It is approx 130 yards long, and 50 yards wide (about 1.2-1.3 acres). It three different stripsseeded in Biologic Maximum, Biologic Premium Perennial, and Biologic Full Draw. The seeding is 3 weeks old as of now and I hope it comes in much thicker over the next few weeks. Below those are some pics of some of the smaller bucks. I don't have them on camera, however there are 3 different 3.5 year old bucks on the property right now that I have glassed in the fields at night as well. I will also be spending a good portion of time on a 160 acre property near Oneonta, NY that has 6 seperate plots on it and has had QDM practiced on it for the last 5 years as well, last year I had an encounter with a real slammer (around 140") there that unfortunately I was not able to close the deal........hopefully this year.
Plot after brush hogged before discing:

After spraying with roundup:

After discing:

After spreading a full ton of lime:

After raking, seeding, and dragging:

One week after seeding:


Two weeks after seeding:


Three weeks after seeding (taken yesterday):





And a few of the smaller bucks running around. Not sure I would shoot these guys but next year they should be pretty good ones.
