2017 Deer Contest Discussion

Been passing up decent bucks and now it’s the last weekend of bow season and my college roommate is in town to hunt. This little guy came through did not want to pass him up. Below 30 degrees and really windy. First saddle deer. Went to the trophyline for this hunt and got it done tonight.

Well done sir!!!!Congrats and great shot. Absolutely freakin beautiful saddle by the way!!!!!
 
Wow I have been away for a little while been busy with life and deer. Blew my shot on a buck i have been after for 3 years today so im in a slump. But kudos to all so far you guys are killing them!!! Congratulations to all!!
 
Yes congrats to all.
Team 8 I have the opportunity to upgrade my buck and add five more points but I only have 2.5 days to do it. It’s going to take more than that plus redsquirrel is almost certainly going to upgrade one of his does for at least a spike before it’s over with. I don’t know what happened. I took a scouting trip over the weekend and looked back and team 4 had taken the lead.:dizzy:
 
I just returned from my Midwest trip. Several close encounters with big dudes, but couldn't seal the deal. I shot a doe out of my kestrel, but was hunting without my phone, and deboned the deer on the spot and packed it out. Sorry team 6, i let you boys down. Does a picture of a tag, meat and the kestrel count haha?

I'd count it. The contest is for fun and as long as you are reasonable I am trying to go off an honor system.
 
Good job @Root, thought I was the only one on Team 1 who was out hunting this year. Count the point!

Ouch. I tried at least. That’s what I get for getting focused on a single buck, and passing every doe I had an opportunity on..
I did see a very large buck yesterday morning chasing does, but he hasn’t showed since. Today is my last hunt for a good while (and possibly the season). If I don’t get something today, any other sits I might get will be brown and down.
 
Hambone I don't like losing. I fully intend on upping my points once gun opens. But around here after opening weekend things get pretty tough. I'm back to going after Mr. Bigs or his cousin / brother / dad / friend / distant relative.
 
Looks like i got to get a bigger deer. Team 4 took the lead for an upset lol. Good work everyone. Team 8 lets try to sway this back in our favor lol.

Still looking for out of state invites with known buck larger than 8 points to upgrade lol

Tagged out in PA, I have some nice 10 pointers and a 13 running around my hunting area but I couldn’t pass my buck up!

I heard about a 47 point freak killed in Tennessee last year. I am hoping @TNhunter has his brother scouted out and allowing him to pass on his genes before taking the win for team 8.

I did see a 19 point that was killed around here today.
