Don't know about the Copper John, but I have an Extreme 900 with .019 pins. I think I could hunt with moon light. The brightest pins I have ever seen.
If it's not storming tomorrow night after work, I plan on running up to the farm I hunt in IL. Gotta see if my bachelor group is still feeding in the beans. I will try to get some pics.
Just ordered an ASAT ground blind from buckeyebuckhntr tonight. Got a couple of spots where one could really come in handy. No big trees but lots of brush and weeds. And one huge oak tree in the middle of a soy bean field that is loaded with acorns. This tree is 4' in diameter, too big for a stand. But when the acorns start to drop, every deer in the area will be on em. Gonna try and stick one from a blind.

Right on, can't wait to see pix if you get some! I really need to get a camera/binocular combo. I dont take enough still photos of bucks, but have tons of video.. My video camera takes pix but they are only 1.7 mega pixels.. [:@]

I am gonna continue to hunt more and more off the ground too John, (mostly natural blinds)I really like this new guille suit, I got the lopers would look right past me, I'll see how the whitetails react soon.

RE: 43- Official Team Chaos Thread
Troy, what kind of body weight do your whitetails have out there? What do they eat mainly, any crops at all or just browse from the woods?
You got some nicebucks if there are no crops around for them to load up on.
