very impressive stats there....i tried making a hunting log like that but the time was short and so was my interest haha

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

GGNY - keeping a log is definitely a good idea. I use microsoft excel on my pc - it's really easy. Have you been out lately, buddy? I know your gun season comes in soon, right?

We need an update from Arrowdynamics, Mcouey, 16pt, Blueranger & Mvisgak. With Duke's deer, we're only 2-3 deer off the lead.

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

Its been a awhile since I last check in, nice buck duke. This has been the worst year for me as far as schedule,I have two places to go and only have been able to get out to each placeonce. The one place still has all the corn in. I have yet to even see a deer on the stand, the whole season has just been frustratingI Hope to get outat least 1 more time this week before the ORANGE army begins their march on Saturday. Good Luck

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

Quick, i made it out all last weekend and seen one nice shooter buck sat. night and also sunday morning, never could get him to come into range. If all goes well i will make it out friday before agent orange takes over. If not then it wont be until the late season that i get another bow hunt in...

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

Hey guys....sorry I haven't posted in a while but I just got back from my 2 week hunt in Kansas. All in all it was a good hunt. I passed on 2 bucks that would of scored in the 150's early in the hunt hoping the rut would pick up and the big boys would start showing themselves but it never did. I did manage to put my tag on a respectable buck on the last week. I will post the score for the team. He grossed 141 2/8.

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

Holy smokes thats awesome! Great job man thats a heck of a buck!

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

Awesome buck 16pt. Damn nice deer. Any luck at all in PA, or just waiting for gun season?

So what's the story with your Kansas hunts - do u do an outfitter, or have family down there or friends?

Looks like the Dark Horses are inching ever-so-close to the 600" mark. We're only one or two deer away from winning this thing.

Mcouey, mvisgak, Blueranger, NY, AD: Git-r-dun boys.

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

Thanks guys. It looks like you guys killed some nice deer while I was gone as well. Looks like we are near the top of the scoring chart. Good job..

Quick- My PA season didn't go quite as well. I passed on a couple of small 8 points before I left but nothing with any size. My PA goal is something around 125" but I didn't see any.

I got hooked up with a farmer in Kansas and hunt his private ground. We make a donation to his church for a trespass fee and have free range to his farm of over 4000 acres. We hang our own stands and we can hunt as long as we want. Its really a great situation. I've been hunting there for 7 years and I hope it never ends. Luckily it hasn't got leased out from under us yet but you never know. There are only 2 of us that bowhunt it.

Great job team, but we need 1 or 2 more bucks and we could win this thing. Good Hunting.

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

16pt - WOW!! That's an awesome deer!!! Great work!

130 and everyone else - looks like your putting some good time in out in the field - keep it up.... Like Quick said - we are oh so close - just need a couple more!!

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

Looks like im the only social member of this team to not put a buck down....i think its time.

I'll be going out with the bow most of this week even though the pumpkins have taken over, BIG cold front moving in thursday into friday so action should be good.

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

Awesome Buck 16 Pt! I'm just checking in, SouthDakota PM'd me to check on me, Thanks!

I haven't scored any bucks yet, put down deer #1 yesterday, a 120lb doe, double lunged her at 35 yds, my first for the year.

I hunted the place for 5 days straight where I saw a nice buck, on my 5th day I discovered a hang-on stand that had been placed near a rub line. It was hunted during Muzzle loader season, which I didn't hunt. I suspect that hunter got the buck I've been after.

On the up-side the rut is on and I have lots of does running around, if I put in the time I should catch one cruising or chasing. With us being less than 50" out of the lead, I may be able to get us into a tie [8D]!

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

Awesome buck 16point congrat's. I was out for the Wisconsin Gun opener and it sucked. I didn't see a deer until Monday morning and it was only a spike. Out of 9 people hunting 0 deer Now that just blows.

We only need a couple more bucks. Good luck guy's

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

16 point.. awesome buck. Nice pics too!

Come on team we are still in this. We are at the top of the leaderboard. We just need a few more down!

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

Nice Deer Guys!

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

Good luck BlueRanger... shoot straight!

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

We are close guys... If everyone keeps at it we should have someone get lucky. Looks to me like with another deer or two and we should have a solid shot at this!:D

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

BlueRanger - congrats on the buck buddy. We're all pullin' for ya to take one down with the archery gear, so get out there and get after em! Good luck bro.

Hey guys - thought yall might wanna see these. I finished up my 2007 euromounts yesterday, and gave the skullstheir final coat of paint.

PA buck




Ohio deer

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

Those look great Quick. You have to be happy with your success this season. I might make it out late season my wife wants to shoot a buck so I will have to take her out.

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

Hey fellas - Happy Thanksgiving! Just got in from the in-laws' place. Long day.

So, anybody doing any hunting this weekend? I know gun season is in most places... Any of you guys planning on doing any rifle hunting? I have a couple doe tags, so I'll probably get out for a day or two.

130 - I'm happy with the way this season went. I wound up killing 2 of the nicest bucks I had in range. I really wanted a PY class deer, but in the areas in PA where I hunt, deer of that caliber aren't exactly behind every tree. So, I have to temper my expectations accordingly. Next year, I'll raise the bar a notch in Ohio. I have no doubt that I can do better if I put in the time. Hey man, good luck if you get out in the late season with the wife. U get a lot of gun season pressure on your property, or is it pretty quiet? Around here, every deer in the entire state is totally shell-shocked after gun season.

I've started scouting for fall '08 - been out walking the woods a few times, looking for new pinchpoints, funnels and late-developing sign in a couple new areas. Spotlighted the other night in a few areas, just trying to get an inventory of what deer are where. Hunting reallyis a game that has no end. The second I've got a rack in the dirt, the mission to fill the next buck tag begins. My wife is still having trouble understanding that! LMAO Women.....

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

Very nice Franon your skulls !! Congrats again on your season!!

Tim

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

I've got a rifle tag and plan to do a little hunting this weekend. Good luck to everyone heading out!

Quick - Those are some awesome euro mounts! Great instructional post too!

Duke - Enjoyed your field journal for your buck this year - great work! One of the pieces that sticks out in my mind was your instincts to move the stand to the eventual location that you got him... Sometimes it's hard to listen to that inner voice...

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

Got one today boys!! will have pics and stuff on here later tonight or in the mornin, scores in at a 108.5 7 pt!!

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

Oh... gobblegetter YOU MY HERO!

Congrats man... can't wait to see the pics!

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

Thanks SouthDakota.. I amhappy you read it.

Yeah... sometimes you don't want to listen to that inner person, but without him I would probably not have hadthe shot. Funny thing is I was originally going to leave itout ofthe story.. but my wife said it was an important piece and I should leave it in for sure.

Thanks again.

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

GGNY - sweet!!! You rock - way to keep at it! Can't wait to see the pics!!

Duke - amazing how that 'inner voice' works...The morning I shot my deer at the last minute going down the highway I had a gut feeling to sit my location that is my 'traditionaly' my evening stand... Again - great read - glad you left that piece in!


I'm a little bit bummed out tonight :(. I was rifle hunting this eveningand missed a great buck... I was walking a little grassy ravine and just as I got to the bottom he jumped from the rim... Hewas only about about 30 - 40yardsaway when he busted - I was ready and was able to get a quick shot off - but that was it. By the time I got to the top edge where I could see - he vanished..... Those ones sting - I'll be replaying the whole scenario in my heads for weeks... If there is silver lining to the whole thing is that I think I found another good location to hang a stand for archery season next year - just about 75 yards to the south there are a couple of trees and a lot of sign. I've only really hunted this field with the rifle - but I think there could be some potential to archery hunt next year. A guy can never have to many choices.....

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

I just got back from the nine day gun season I saw 7 Deer only 1 buck a small spike. We had 9 people out hunting and not 1 shot fired. The bucks seemed to have the does locked down and nothing was moving. It sucked it was the worst gun season I ever had. Late bow season starts next week and goes until Janurary sometime. I make it out for that.

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

Congrat's gobbler I knew you could do it.:DCan't wait for the pics. Are we in 1st now?

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

Great job Gobblegetter, your persistence sure paid off. Congrats!

Duke- That was a great story on a great buck. Thanks for sharing it.

SouthDakotaHunter- Sorry about the miss, maybe you will put an arrow in him next year.

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

Well guys we're close!! Looks like team 29 nailed another one though - which will put them over 700... Looks like someone else is still going to have to connect. Stay after it guys!!!! We should still only be no more than 50 points or so off the lead...

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

AAHHH having some serious internet/picture issues. Im on a public computer at school right now. I should have him entered by late tonight or so with the story and pics posted on here. Till then thank you all for the praise and the support!

RE: 13-Official Team 13 Thread
 

Ok im having some problems anyone know how to get these darn picture things to work?!
