Mine starts Sept 25th and ends the first sunday in February. Welcome Jeramy and everyone that I did not welcome earlier. I am pretty much strictly a bow hunter. I've never killed any giants yet but have had several close encounters with some very large bucks. You all know how it is with archery equipment, one more step, there is a branch in the way, and several other things that can go wrong. I just have had alot of bad luck since I started bow hunting in 1996. I have killled my fair share of deer though. I probably have killed over 70 deer. The vast majority of those have been since I started bow hunting. I have a son who is 22 that I usually hunt alot with. He chose not to be in the contest this year but I will be hunting with him most of the times I am out he is there with me. This year we have seen a good number of nice bucks. We are doing everything we can to keep them in the area they are in right now. So hopefully I will have a huge buck for the team.

I went ahead and PMed HuntingBry.. Hopefully we'll be able to field a full team soon.. Sounds like it's about time for you to get one of those monsters on the ground Shawn.. I believe this team has a real good chance at being Champs this year.. We are all active on here and from the ones of us that have been able to scout and check our trail cameras so far, we have some nice deer on our hit lists..

Those are some pretty sweet avatars!!!!!

The Avatars do look great,...I also agree,..midwest Monarchs wouldnt quite seem right,...great name tho.

I would be happy with either of those two. How soon do we put it to a vote?

Hey guys, just got back in.. I was out picking last round or two of blackberries to make some jam, so that I can have my PB&J in the stand :D.. Plus once we got back, we had a few beers, you know how that goes.. Thanks for the complements on the avatars, as far as voting we can open it up officially.. We got 9 of 10 and he's been PMed so that's fair game.. I'm gonna say lets limit it to the two that I got made already haha.. Laziness on my part.. But I'll add the total votes to the front page..

My vote is for Rack Addicts..


P.S. - I also got my cards pulled out of my cameras today and I got some more pics of LBM and his merry band of followers.. I'll post them tomorrow once I get more time to look them over..

I also vote for Rack Addicts

I like both of the avatar's.

But I will stick to my first thought.. Rack Addicts.

Rack Addicts has my vote.

Rack Addicts for me.
