Team #5 "The Midwest Whitetail Assassins"

[StickNString]

Hey guys just starting a thread here so we all can check in. I think it would be cool to know where everyone hunts at, so lets hear a little about yourself. We also need to think of a name, so if you all have any ideas feel free to post them and we can decide from there.

As for me, I am 26 and with a recent job change I will only be able to hunt on the weekends and the occasional weekday night (I used to have Friday-Sunday off). I hunt south of Sparta, WI in a little town called Leon. I also try to find time to get together with friends for the the occasional bow drive or sit in the marsh/islands on the Mississippi River.

Checking in here. I'm from Red Wing, MN and hunt the Goodhue, MN area. I also have just started a new job which will limit my hunting to primarily weekends but I have a nice buck patterned that I hope to put my tag on opening weekend. He isn't the biggest buck on our hunting land but he is so visible right now and would be hard to pass up when I know my hunting is going to be semi-limited this year.

Team name suggestion I liked my team name from last year which was "The Empty Quiver Gang"

I hunt around the Arcadia, WI area. Mostly a weekend hunter, with some weekday hunts depending on how busy work is.

Team name doesn't matter much to me.

All we are missing so far is Jeg. I like the name Midwest Whitetail Assassians.

Midwest Whitetail Assassians works for me

We should give the other guys a chance to agree on the name and have everybody checked in and if everybody agrees let stump know.
Jeg needs to check in soon or we will need to try and PM him.

[JEG]

Hello, sorry I'm late. Here's my bio I'm 42, live north of Lanesboro work rotating shifts so hunt as much as Family/conditions permit schedule is kind of all over the place. Have the last week of Oct. and first two weeks of Nov. off. Dont have anything specific lined up but know of a few decent ones around. Most my stands are ready just need to touch up about 6 more and will be ready . Noticed allot of acorns this year and they are starting to drop so I expect the deer will be less visible real soon in the evenings. Midwest whitetail assasins sounds good. Good luck to everyone!!

[MnBOWhntr]

Well we have everyone checked in and the majority agree on "The Midwest Whitetail Assasins" for a name so I will PM stump with our name. Now I wish everybody on out Team good luck this year!!

[Shooter]

I have been getting this nice 14 point on camera all summer. If he comes in I am going to send a muzzy his way.TEIR0301.jpgTEIR0292.jpg

[JEG]

WOW, what a hog!!

[MnBOWhntr]

Holy crap man that is a pig!!! Good luckon sticking him!!

[StickNString]

Wow nice buck, hopefully you can get your hands on that rack this year.

[MnBOWhntr]

If your in Minnesota it is just one week away guys!!! Next saturday at this time I will be sitting in my treestand. Hopefully if the buck I have patterned is still on schedule I will have a nice 8 pointer on the ground!!

[Shooter]

I am taking my son out hunting with me opening night. He turns 6 on Sunday. I don't shoot to many does because of lack of them around me but first one that comes by Saturday night is getting a muzzy sent her way.

[SouchekRidgeHunter]

I still remember my first time out with my dad when he shot a buck...... I will never forget that so I hope and pray you can put one down with your with. I too am shooting the first matur doe that comes by me. I am going to hunt my home farm in the morning and hopefully hunt the mississippi river bottoms with Sticks and a group of our friends!

MDGC0037 (4).jpgMDGC0036.jpgHere are a couple of my bucks I am targeting this year. 2 of the 8 pointers I'm not sure if I will pull the trigger on until I see them in person.MDGC0035 (2).jpgMDGC0142.jpgMDGC0632.jpg The wide scraggly buck is 5 1/2 years old he was a basic 6 pointer at 1.5, 2.5, and 3.5 years old then last year when he was 4 1/2 he disappeared no sightings and no pictures. Now he is back and has grown some extra trash so he is a legal buck to take now. This ultimately is my target buck for the year just cause I want him out of the herd.

[MnBOWhntr]

Is anyone on my team still alive?? How is everyone doing? I've been out twice with minimal deer sightings and no shots offered.
