if my shoulder continues to crap out of me can I use my Matthew's on the trad team? I hate to penalize them because I'm getting old. so far so good but I can only shoot a 1/2 dozen shots at a time.
I'll allow it. I know you're hardcore trad and it will be your last resort. It's all for fun anyhow!

I'm ok with it, but if other teams have a beef I'll send you my old browning...you can shoot it fingers, and it's probably slower than my brown recluse, so people can't complain about that!2018-09-09 16.36.49.jpg

@TonyGreenway - you got me fired up! I'm 11 days from a scouting/early season trip. Keep your head up...you'll get on the board, and Tha High 5 will roll...

If you learned something, it was a successful hunt!

I’m not scared being on a trad team. Haven’t shot in a few weeks and I can still do this at 25 yards

I know this is a deer contest but do we get bonus points for coyotes, bobcats, pigs, and hell on them slow days I’ve been known to shoot a squirrel or two. Just curious about other legal kills.
I know this had never been counted, but I like the idea. With one exception. If you shoot a black coyote and don't even keep it, you should be disqualified.......

I couldn't video the part where I'm throwing logs at him... but I have video of him stealing her from me.
Honestly I'm a little confused and maybe I'm missing something. You shot a doe and took pics and then a bear stole the deer. Did you recover it after that or was it stolen for good? If so shouldn't that be -5 point? ;)

Ugh... 76 with 91% humidity here in south Louisiana right now. High of 90 today. I probably wouldn’t be out even if I could be.
Yeah when people start talking about it's in the forties and fifties already it makes me want to drive up north and start Throat punching people

Hey @redsquirrel what do guys have to shoot on a trad team when it comes to firearms. Do we have to shoot a Flintlock or something, or can we shoot a modern firearm. I only ask because I have a modern firearm quota hunt this year and I can't carry my bow during those hunts.
