Hey guys, Team Bone Collectors sounds like the way to go and when I get some free time I will work on a logo. Work has been nuts but it is starting to slow down and I finally finally have some free time this weekend. Saturday I will be heading to Cabelas and getting my new Reconyx RC60 game camera and setting it up. I also have to get some new broadheads and pick up some new camo.

I just talked to the property owner of my honey hole property and he said that he saw a really big buck in his garden a few days ago. I had a camera running on this property a month ago and only got a couple of small 8 points. I plan on puttin the Recoynx out on this property and hopefully get some photos of this buck.

Hey there team. Bone collectors sounds great to me. The logo also sounds pretty cool. I have seen a few nice bucks while shining in the past week or so, but still no nice pics!

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

looks like we got a plan and we are heading for an upset!

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

Hey guys, I decided to play around with creating an avatar for the team this evening. I have Adobe Photoshop CS2 but I gotta admit, I am not too familiar with it. I did come up with an avatar (its not the best), and I figured that I would post it up and get your opinions....

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

Looks good to me Buck Magnet. I was thinking it would be cool if the reaper could have a tall scythe wityh a dead buck hanging from the blade, probably too hard to do though.
We checked our cameras on a lease we have and there is an 8 and 10 point hanging together, both 130-140 class deer.

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

I love the reaper but the reading is a little hard to read, could we make it white and have it on the bottom? The avatar kicks major butt, love that reaper!

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

Good to hear you have some good bucks showing up!

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

Okay guys, I redid the avatar a bit. I emphasized the antlers a little more, they were almost impossible to see in the first one, and I added the writing to the bottom and its in white... let me know what you guys think....

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

The avatar kicks serious arse, you did a killer job on that and I am stoked.

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

Thanks, it actually wasn't much work... well, I will be putting that as my new avatar now.

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

Well guys, I totally forgot to give ya'll an update. I went scouting on the farm that borders my honey hole property. This farm is open to any and everybody but it usually doesn't get any pressure until rifle season. I sat up watching the fence row that borders my honey hole property and ended up seeing a total of 12 deer, all bucks. The smallest was a little 7 point, and only one was a definet shooter. He was definetly a 3-1/2 year old (pretty easy to tell when he is feeding with a 1-1/2 y.o. 8 point and a 2-1/2 y.o. crab claw 7 point. He is a main frame 8 point around 17" wide, decent tine length with a few small kickers. The cool thing about the buck is that he is heavily palmated on his left side, it looked like a human palm. They came out through a golden rod field (staging area) which means that they came out of the timber where I have several treestands and a ground blind set-up. Saturday when I get my new game camera I will be setting it up either on that fence row or on the edge of a nearby cornfield that was kicked into a fine dust from so many deer walking past. My personal property isn't looking good but thankfully I am seeing alot of activity on my honey hole ground!

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

Glad to hear you have some deer at the honeyhole, that makes two of us! How are things looking for everyone else?

I have another property to scout this weekend that gets no deerhunting pressure, it could have a monster or two so I'll keep everyone posted.

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

That avatar is great Buck Magnet. I didn't see the antlers in the first one, but now that I do, It looks perfect!

I have some good news. I got permission to hunt about 20 acres surrounded by city land and a subdivision that can't be hunted. It is some tall grass with a little piece of woods that the deer use to get to a 10 acre food plot my cousin owns. There is a strip of woods 50 yards behind a house that the deer walk past everynight. Turns out this guy owns the woods, and it is close toa house, but the family just left, and are just leaving the house there, so now I don't have to worry about them yelling at me for hunting so close to their yard. I saw 15 deer on the food plot 1/2 hr before dark tonight, and see 20 - 25 there everynight while shining, including a 130" ten pointer. Im pumped!
So where is everyone going to be hunting this fall, and what is your goal for this hunting season?

RE: Official Team 10 Thread

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

Jason, glad to see you have some potential in on of your spots. It’s got to be very frustrating to have them somewhat collapse in what they had been producing. Luck to you & the fiancé this fall. Are you getting acorns dropping already? Have a few dropping here, it seems EARLY to me.

Raceway, Gotta root for you to score too, so you can supply the meat for next years GTG. :DIn da woods has to cook again too.

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

Sweet, you guys can have Oompa Loompa's running around a christmans tree. Hahahahaha

RE: Official Team 10 Thread

RE: Official Team 10 Thread

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

Never seen that place, is it Wisconsin?

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

Buck Magnet, that is an awesome avatar. Nice work. Kinda crazy guys there was just a shooting about 20 yards from my apartment, thankfully no one was hurt. Gotta love Carlisle, Pa

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

Gangsta action, glad to hear you are ok!

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

That avatar is incredible! Nice job!

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

Ummm, you need to download it and replace your old one;)

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

[align=right][/align][align=left]My brother lives in Carlisle. Out by the little airport. [/align]

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

Is Carlisle as bad as fatsbucknut is saying? I might need to get him a few plugged thugs to keep him safe.

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

Kev's brothers place

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

I’ve only been there a few times to visit, seemed rather small town po-dunk to me.
But my bro says the drug scene is pretty big.

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

Hey Men, Just checking in again... Been on Vacation. The name is great, sorry i haven't chimed in on the name. Doesn't look like you waited for me anyway;). I vote for BuckM for Cap't... Great looking Avatar:D

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

Good to see you back! BuckMagnet already posted that he'd be team captain in the team captain thread so we are all squared away. Now it's time to start collecting;)

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

Hey Blake- What part of West Central Illinois you hunting this year? I am going to be in Brown County on 102 acres a few weekends this year which is pretty close to you. If you are gonna be anywhere near me shoot me a pm. I do anticipate on taking my contest deer from Kane County though, unless I am striking out before the first weekend of November.

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

Guy's, Ive never had an avatar, how do I get it attached to my profile? By the way nice work it looks great.

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

All you need to do is right click the avatar and hit "save picture as" and save it on your computer. After that, go to the top of the page where it says "My Profile" and click that. Scroll down till the avatar section and click the "upload my picture (will replace the existing one)" When the box opens, find the avatar picture that you save and hit okay..... it should upload to your posts then. Hope this helped :)

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

No luck, says it's not supported blah blah blah. I'll keep trying.

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

I tried with mine and it said it was too big. Im no good with computers though, lol

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

haha, after gowing up in the country with no neighbors you might as well just put me in New York City. I cant wait til my fiance finishes grad school so we can move out of the town. I was out scouting last night and i'm convinced this new property is gonna pay off, i've never been able to hunt such good deer sign.

RE: Official Team 10 Thread
 

Sounds like a sweet spot to hunt. Can't wait to see what you get out of there.
