Congratulations Team 8!!!! My puter is unavailable for the moment, so I am making once-in-a-while trips to the library.[>:]

Glad you guys are doing so well. So far, this looks to be my worst season in many many years. Some things have changed as far as some land ownership, logging in a couple of areas, and the early harvest of crops are really gonna test me this season.

I'll check back with you all later and hopefully I can help out our team eventually.

Alright, way too go guys.
I Been moving stands around today. Saw a 2 pointer and 2 does. I'll be hunting these stands hard in the next 3 days. Weather conditions are just now changing as showers are expected all of this week and tempertures have been high 30's (f) to mid 60's. I am just now just seeing signs of the pre-rut kicking in as the last week in Nov is the peak. I hope that I can hold out that long.
Keep up the good work team #8. Bobby

Nice lookin buck Lefty, Keep piling them on, the more inches the better. I'm going to get out this afternoon (in the rain) and see if I can nail one heading out to the green field. I'll be hunting where I've seen my 12 pointer and a big 10. Please let one come by within range. I've been hunting this 12 pointer since he was an 8. He's between 4-6 years old. He is definite P&Y class. I just hope I don't settlefor a lesser buck, but to get one in would be great and just increase our total. Good luck to all the rest of the season and lets put the hammer to the rest of the teams.

Uh, sorry, a little late on the scene I realize, but my brain has not registered it was hunting season until the past week (stress, life, warm weather, etc..). Anyway, a week off work coming up and in the woods! Good to be here.

Smart choice. It's just getting good. I can't get in the woods but I'm getting reports.

Saw another monster tonight. Too bad I could not shoot him. After my fifth doe of the season already. The pre rut is on now here in Minnesota. I have been seeing bucks running around with a ton of new scrapes everywhere. Lets go Elite 8 I would like to win this thing.
