Good luck guys - My first outing will be tomorrow - but I'm going to help a fellow hunter safety instructor, Pat, try to get her first deer with a bow. I'm going to put her in a ladder stand over an alfalfa field on my farm. Here's what was in the field a few days ago (the ladder stand is just right of center):

Looks like a good setup, fshafly2! No dice for me yesterday...hopefully tomorrow afternoon will be a different story.

Any ideas for a team name...

Nice Fsh, always good to share with friends. As far as my hunting goes it has been hard to breakaway from work to get any time in the stand during the week. I may get out Friday morning and afternoon depending on how busy work is. Hope all is well with everyone else, we need to pick a team name. Any suggestions folks?

What a brute browtine7, very nice and congrats.

Only one more week before I hit the woods. Will be washing and airing out my gear this weekend along with practicing with my scouts. Time for some R&R in a tree.

Good luck to all this weekend for those fortunate to get out.

Thanks Dave for stepping forward as our captain. To get the name game started, here's a list of potential team names:

Team Galt
Buck Legends
Make-em-leak
Heart Stoppers
Booners
Mutant Buck Hunters
Crimson Arrow

I'll stop as this brainstorming is starting to hurt. I'm sure there are a lot better ideas floating within this team....so bring them on.

I like heart stoppers

Since we are team one...we could be Ace in the hole...or Aces an Eights...

Looks like everyone has checked in except PA Mountaineer. I sent him a PM though I noticed he hasn't posted since August 6th.

Good additions BUCKMARK. I like the Aces somewhere in the name as it ties in with team one.

Looks like he wpuld be a no show...any ideas when they will replace with alternates?
