I'm guessing that we'll all have to check in officially next year for the contest - just like this year? I would say that if they don't check in, then they'll get replaced? Just a guess though....

I just started a new job a few weeks ago, so I'm probably not going to have the vacation time for multiple out of state trips this year [:@] But the good news is that I'll just focus most of my energy on Whitetail hunting instead of elk hunting Assuming I can draw my Iowa archery tag this year, I've got some private land lined up that should be pretty good. In fact I just put my name on the second week of November (as a vacation request at work).

What do you guys think? Is that going to put me in the 'hot zone' next year??


Would like to try and do some turkey hunting this year, not sure how much extra time I'll have this spring...
