Nah, i dont know about everyone else here, but im just havin fun chatin with everyone on this team, not to worried about the contest. Congrats, on your buck tho.

Hmm, Clinton is not that far from me at all. Good luck, and yes bundle up cause it will be COLD.

I'm looking forward to this weekend I think I'll be bowhunting durring gun season hahaha. The genius I am. So I'm guessing another teams close to us in the score?

Oh yes were are, Team Hooter's Shooters is on your heels (-16.35 with only half our team with kills). I shot my buck, right in the middle of shot gun season and in woods people shot gun in. I say go for it. Seriously, I do wish you luck. Please keep your kill to a minimum size though.:s2:

Haha. Well I'm in total agreeance with what was said by my teammate, I could care less if we win lose or draw, honestly I could, I've had a hell of a good time just shootin the **** with these guys, I seriously hope that everyone here feels the same way and I hope we all keep in touch after this is over assuming we don't win. The only sport I was ever hell bent on winning in was hockey and here I sit 19 years old with a torn mcl miniscus and aductor muscels in my right knee, I'll never play again, I was willing to sacrafice everything to win, and I did, you wanna talk about a slice of humble pie, that will do it for anyone. Its not all about winning or losing, I'd die for anyone of my former hockey teammates, and I know they would do the same for me. The competition is fun for me however and it helps drive me on those mornings I don't feel like getting out of bed at2 or 3 in the morning, and I actually forgot to tell you congratulations fieldmouse, that's a hell of a buck you got. I'd be tickled pink with that.

I'll stop preeching now haha.

hey guys...been out hunting since this past thursday for ohios gun season....i had great time but the hunting was ok i guess...made a mistake by not shooting a nice buck...2nd guess myself. then yesterday (sunday) i shot a doe at 40 yds with my slug gun...heres where its get wierd...she was almost broadside but a lil qtr. to me...i aimed right behind the shoulder and fired... when i shot she just stood there and then turned around and stopped. her tail went up and it started flickerning and then her tail tucked. she walked a few steps and back legs gave out. she got her footing and slowly walked away. i was trying to reload as quick as i could but she was heading for some thick stuff. my uncle was close to me on the next ridge over, so he came down after i shot. we found NO hair or blood, just tracks..i thought i made a good hit but idk something happened..we looked and looked, finally the tracks we were following just vanished. uncle thinks i gut shot her. to say the least im upset with myself still . i thought i did everything buy the books. this is the first time something like this has happened to me, ive killed numerous deer with a bow and never had to track a deer over 60 yds. im trying not to beat myself up about it, but i always try to do the most humane and ethical things while hunting, thats the first time i even ever shot at a deer with a gun, i just always bowhunted anyways sorry for the long read but just felt like talking about it with u guys..
