I had a guy show me a picture of a buck that was supposedly found near dupont. Has anyone else heard about this find? I will try to get the picture sent to me so it can get posted. The rack looks huge with loads of mass.

I worked with him on Friday and Saturday nights and he didn't weigh it or score it. But, he is getting it mounted, he shot him at 5:20. First deer he saw on his little 18 acres.

If it is daworz's it is probably a medium. He is not a large man.

My 870 20 gauge hated lightfields. I shot winchester supremes until last year when I got the scope. I changed to Hornaday's and didn't have a deer go over 50 yards. longest shot was 75 yards.

I would say that there were about 25000 sold because my number is just under 25000 and I bought mine the day before gun season in 03, and drove to Indy to do it.

I believe that I bought one of the last LTLs that was sold. I paid $856.00 for comp hunting only. I figured that it would take 10 years to pay for itself, but it has only taken 8. best money that I ever spent that I didn't have at the time.

lug,
I live in Madison and am supposed to be off that weekend if you can't find a partner. I'll need to watch the video anyway to hunt my weekend, and the 6th and 7th.

The easiest thing to do is watch the video on the friday before your hunt weekend. the last one is at 3 pm.

Hey lug, They did change the rule about bonus antlerless tags in big oaks this year, so you can use them. I was just on the site 3 days ago and it is in big bold print.

if you are going to camp and can come down on Friday there are safety breifings at 7a noon and 3p I think. This makes it so that you can be in the woods before daylight. Make sure that you bring a cooler with food and drinks especially if you are going north. It is at least a 30 minute drive to the northern areas. There is a camping area down by the river and there is always Clifty State Park. If you are hunting from a tree stand then the north is the place to be, but if you like to hunt from the ground the south has not been as thick and you can sit and kill deer. I like to hunt the middle. There are more unexploded shells there, but most of them didn't have charges when they were tested. The army shot a large number of them through plywood to see how fast they were going so they could figure trajectory and range. There are a lot of deer in bo, but that doesn't mean that you will see one, because the place is huge. They do still have no show draws at 6am for gun hunts and most people do get drawn.

I haven't every shot one, but my personal opinion is that I am not shooting anything over 100 yards. Part of the fun for me is not getting busted by the nose, eyes, or ears of whatever I'm hunting. Most of the animals that I have killed have been under 50 yards. This being said, I have said for years that everything should be legal. How can a squirell hunter shoot a rifle into the air, but a deer hunter can't shoot a rifle ar a downward angle at a deer.

congrats to all that got a bird. It took all 5 hunters getting a bird to win it this year, and those warrick guys are always around the top. now that is a dynasty.
oh and thanks again to Woody for the contest and the site!
