Could you PM these, to let them know they are on a team?
I just made the team, they might not know about it yet.
And if the don't reply, then I will see about replacing them.
We need to give them a chance.

Thank You

I messaged them the other night after our conversation to let them know they were on a team and gave them the link to the thread. After sending out the messages, two of the four members who had not already checked in posted on the thread. I will message them again saying that they will be removed from the team if they do not post.

Well, I am checking back in. I have been in the woods for several days and finally got enough time to turn the computer on. I have 2 does now and I have a lot of blood from a very nice buck that I shot last night about 15 mintues before dark. Bad thing is that is rained this morning so hopefully I can still find some more blood. I will get it posted on here this evening if I can find it. Should score nicely. Hope all of you are having good luck. Later.

good luck on finding that buck. im headed out all day tomorrow hopin to put one on the ground.

Well, I guess we have too many deer. I found the deer, but it was not the buck. The only thing I can think of is as I shot a doe that crossed the opening before the buck. I did not even know she was out there. This part of the field is across a little branch that is right behind my stand. When I first saw it, he was walking toward me abot 200 yards away. At abot 100, it turned to my right and was walking along a dozer pile. As it was walking through here, I could only see it for about 2 seconds every little bit. After about a minute of seeing this thing and could not get a shot, I scanned ahead and found a large opening, getting ready, I could still see him waking. This opening is a crossing in the branch and one side has several large trees together. I did not want to look at the horns anymore and when it came through, boom. Oh well. It is not hurt at least. Hopefully he will come back in a day or so. It was a large doe though. Prob the biggest we have killed so far on the farm.

Well, good luck to all. I am going back out since the rain has finally stopped.

any pictures? thats 25 points for us if ya post it? right?

i'm here ...sorry i havent responded earlier guys , but i drive a truck during the week and haven't had any inet access....when i tried last weekend the ip wasn't propagated to my dns yet , so i couldn't access the forum...

this season has been terrible so far... very little movement , and the buck i been hunting for the past 3 yrs has been shot about 1,5 miles from my location. it was a nice 10pt it weight in at 187lbs , so that kinda put a dent in my season...so i went to another location , i really haven't scouted it this year but there's always a few shooters there, then again i shoot anything....except buttons or young fawns.

thats a bummer on that nice 10. ive been in that situation before...double main beam on his right side 13 pointer. killed about a mile away from our piece. good luck this season though

i got till January 2nd to get some meat... i really haven't seen much in the past 2 weeks other then 1 very small doe , and i didn't take it.i however found a bedding area in a new area , and theres a path going thru it. the tracks go across it ,it's on top of a big hill...so i'm kinda hoping i can catch him crossing the opening...not sure the size , but he's prolly not a 10...it's pretty uncommon to get a 10 around this area.

Thanks for checking in, Sypto. My season just opened on wednesday and so far 4 bucks have been killed on the property, all of them with tiny racks and big bodies. This land is really geared towards our "meat hunting" tendencies. There's one 8-pointer and a monster 14-pointer on the property, hopefully I tag one of them. And mbm, I'd honestly rather shoot a big doe than a big buck, they taste spectacular. But, if you get those pics up, we'll have 75 points for you and the Team. I'm going to have to find a single alt.
