Don't know if it's the same, but mornin pumpkin.:)

RE: 43- Official Team Chaos Thread
 

Mornin' Fellas, just getting ready to start work here, meetings today..pretty much bout it.. No students until next Tues.

Less than 24 hours and I will be bowhunting, gonna try to get 2 hours of huntingin before work tomorrow morning, behind my house (stretch bucks area)and then hunt the evening over in the next county for the 4x5.

My new pole barn is in the process of going up as we speak.. can't wait. Finally gonna have a nice place to take care of critters.

Gonna shoot again this evening; the strikers are really flying true and I am really enjoying this new range finder.. Kicking myself now for not getting one years ago..

Gonna be up this evening, final preps on clothing, packing the gear..etc.. I will be hiking into the 4x5's area with my Nontypical Stand and Rapid rails on my back..hang it and hunt him very close to his bed, where he enters a big cut for evening feeding..Hes up high..gonna be about a 1/2 mile hike in then about 1000 feet ascent up the steep mountain.. I am going in real early in the afternoon. taking my time..keeping the sweat way down..I'll be showered, clean, spray down, dress in the woods, hike in only in my rubber boots and base layers, spray again. When I get close to the tree I'll hang my stand (very fast and easy with the rails)tree is picked out too. I'll pull out my 3-d scent lok suit and spray down again, then get covered from head to toe in the stand. Wait him out till dark. If he holds true I should see him well before dark as I am set up at least 100 yards back in a saddle that leads to where he enters the cut. He's been hanging with a smaller wide rack buck. There is also another very good 5x5 in there thats going to be very hard to pass on and who knows maybe some buck I didnt catch all summer will surprise me.

Theres a nice little herd of elk in there too. I saw a nice branch antlered bull in there. If he walks by hes gonna eat an ACC.

I love this time of year, the prep work is done, I am ready to drop the hammer. Nothing better than bowhunting whitetails.. (my bro will meet me for the evening hunt) I got him set up on another really nice evening travel route to an orchard and water hole...been several bucks using it)

Talk to ya later teammates.. Time to get this party started..

Good luck Troy, I am pumped for you to down a slammer this season.

RE: 43- Official Team Chaos Thread
 

Good luck tomorrow Chief. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't totally jealous.I know you've got him mapped out. Just a matter of whether he wants to cooperate or not.

Drop the hammer, bro.

Troy I have feeling, something big is going to happen.

I won't be hunting this weekend. A best friend needs my help. Friends come first!!!

RE: 43- Official Team Chaos Thread
 

TROY,

Man I hope your plan comes together! I am getting excited just reading about it. Can't wait to see you sitting behind one of those bucks you got your eyes on.

I never hunt without my rangefinder any more. One of my must haves!

By the way, what do you teach?

RE: 43- Official Team Chaos Thread
 

John, I am certified in Kinesiology with a minor in Bio. I am teaching 5 Health classes this year and one P.E. It changes a bit year to year...


Thanks Guys, Rybo, Germ, Fran, Jim, Mike.. I am just stoked that its finally time..

Mike, Scott and I had a great time antelope hunting. I am definately hooked and plan on going back every year now.. I learned a lot down there. If you ever want to come out and do it with me in mid August..just let me know my friend.. there is so much ground out there we could never cover it all. Its a great place to campwith the family and the trout fishing looked awesome. I could see Garrett and Conner digging that.. ;)
