Lol. If you've been around long enough you'd know that I would more likely hurt my team by being lenient on others and harsher on myself in the scoring.

You know how when you're playing a game with a kid and you give them a head start to even things up and make them feel like they have a chance...

It's only for the modern Firearms quota hunt. I've read all the regs and the best I can understand it and talkin to other people that have already hunted The Refuge this is the case. I'm going to double-check and make sure but as of right now it is my understanding during the modern Firearms quota hunt you can only shoot a modern firearm it doesn't make any sense to me but so I've Been Told.

In Louisiana we do not have firearms or archery tags. We get six tags. Three of which are for Doe, two are for antler deer, and one either sex. archery season generally runs from October 1st through January 31st with primitive and modern Firearms Seasons falling somewhere in between. This is why I bow hunt because I can do it the entire season. But this is a National Wildlife Refuge I'm hunting on so everything is different.

Speaking of rules, don't you state a picture must be taken of the hunter, saddle, and kill? I'm yet to see a hunter and saddle with doe #2. For all we know @huck72412 huck hit it with his brown truck...just saying...I know. Thank you! I'm just ribbing right back
Don’t you worry sssshhhh im coming for ya lol
Did you not see the poll. It was decided that no one submit a kill until you had reigned supreme for a week. Gloves coming off Saturday morning.
My turn to spit out the morning coffee!Umm.. I think I make the rules around here

I was in South Dakota waiting for a fuzzy antlered swamp donkey, but couldn't stop thinking about shooting a year old doe as my milkweed was bouncing off her face at 10 yards. I thought 5 points toward the contest probably wasn't the best reason to kill her.... but I see that I was wrong!
I know. I haven't shot a 1 1/2 yr old buck in over a decade but, if I haven't filled my tag by December, this contest may cost a young buck his life. Lol

Correct. Go look in the thread now. I did not post it until last night, I didn't post the updated score until after, and most importantly I didn't trash talk until both of those had been taken care of

you're right the trash talking is way more important than the score is anyway!

Well not trying to kick you when you are down, but you do know that you just cursed your whole team,....... Just kidding, unfortunately that's bow hunting sometimes.

I've always been a "brown and down" guy. Bucks are nice, but venison is venison. I've kilt plenty of deer, and been able to recover some iffy shots. I definitely believe that shooting ANYTHING and going through the follow-up routine to recover will make you better prepared for when the big one steps out.
Not sure what voodoo got laid on me last year, but I did finally put the hurt on another WMA buck, so hopefully that evil ran its course.

I think as part of the fun, whichever team wins, all the other teams should have to send them a white elephant gift. Could be pretty fun and funny.
