Same teams. That makes it simpler. I'm in again. Already got two public land permits, one in WI, & one IL. Applied for one more in IL, plus some WI leftovers. Got a trip to China to visit wife scheduled in the middle of the season haha. The wife figured out my turkey fillets substitute great for pork in her stir fry recipes.

Might also end up hunting some in Indiana this year if I find the right home. Taxes are driving me out of Illinois, but do have a LL so will continue to hunt here going forward unless the politicians somehow figure out a way to overtax me for that as well.

Getting antsy.
 

March 20th needs to hurry up, Glad to be back with The Rejects, good luck to all.

Had a good time at my short visit to the NWTF convention! Ready to start chasing some red heads soon!

I'm so excited. I've already got everything sorted and my backpack packed and ready. still have two months before I can even think about getting ready to hunt lol

Had a VA appt this morning & had some time to kill before watching my Granddaughter so stopped by the Salvation Army & scored a NWTF print by Jim Kasper dated 1992. In a matted frame with the NWTF logo paper on the back.

Nice! I scored a Whitetails Unlimited print from the Goodwill last year - found it on 1/2 price Saturday and paid about $5. To be honest, most of my art either comes from Goodwill or direct from artists via commissioned works...

Nice score
 

Good find on the white tail print, I picked up a NWTF life sized cardinal statue at Goodwill, it's perched on a small log with a turkey tail feather across the log...I'm going to tell people that I shot it with my .177 pellet rifle and got it mounted! We'll see if anyone falls for it.

recruits
 

Let's talk to our fellow hunters & get them to sign up, I read on the turkey contest page that they want to break up the band & have smaller teams.

I almost forgot but I'm back and ready to kill some turknados!!!

Not bad!! only 2 haven't checked in. I imagine there is still a good chance of splitting us up since not a lot of sign ups this year.
