I'm sure Joe, getting his PhD from Purdue, had a big hand in getting this going.

arlowe13: thank you for starting this topic, I have for several years now been wanting to learn how to post my own photos from my phone but never did until today. Because of this conversation I am now set up on TAP TALK. Technology can be very scary for older folks but now that I am on board I will post photos often, THANK YOU. For all you other old geezers learn how it wasn't hard. Glad I could help!

I just looked at the Tap talk app and it asked for a form of payment if I ever purchase anything, you choices are VERIZON billing,CREDIT CARD or PAY PAL, is this normal. TapaTalk is free to use (though you can upgrade to pro version to remove ads). It is not necessary to upgrade.

What happened to Imgur? I can upload photos through my Iphone but cant share them anywhere until I get to my home computer. I dont know...their UI was cumbersome anyway, so I'm sticking with this site

Been getting pics of a Giant all summer at my farm in Kentucky. He came outta velvet this week and has been consistently coming by my stand every afternoon during daylight. Hope to send a Rage his way Friday afternoon. Love to post some pics but computer illiterate. Best of luck to all youth hunters this weekend 👍🏼 How do we post photos here? And is Photobucket 100% pay now? I wrote up a How To, here. hunt-indiana.com/thread/62329/posting-pictures-computer

Since imgur has changed up their interface (for the worse), I thought I would do another write up on how to post images to this forum using a very simple website called Postimage.org. If you are like me and most of your pictures are on your phone, do yourself a favor and download the TapaTalk app and login to this forum on the app. It makes posting pictures very simple. However, posting from a computer can be quite confusing, for some. The first thing you need to do is go to Postimage.org and create an account. Once you create an account and log in, you will click on the Upload link in the top left corner of the page. You will then have the option to resize your image (if it is very large), then click on the Choose Images button to select the image(s) you want to upload. Once the upload completes, you will be taken to this screen which has a series of links. You will click on the "Copy link" button to the right of the "Hotlink for forums:" option. You can then "paste" that link into the reply box or thread creation box of this forum. If everything worked, the link you posted will magically turn into an image in your post.

Got my camera and instructions today. However, the camera's lens is busted, so I'm probably sending it back.

So excited to take my son in a few more years. He's only 18 months, but I may try taking him out in a blind this season just for the pictures

It's been ridiculous down here, hasn't it? I haven't even stepped foot on our property since turkey season. Heard the acorn crop is substantial this year, hope so, cuz that is my go-to early season stand set.

Only a few insights I've learned... -There are only a few CHAP coordinators in the state (less than 5). There have been ZERO CHAP-coordinated hunts conducted yet (last year was the first year of CHAP). -The coordinator is responsible for "selling" the hunt to the community partners (parks, homeowners associations, and other land managing entities). -The DNR provides the list of hunters signed up for the Hunters Helping Farmers to the CHAP coordinator. Then it is up to the coordinator and community partner to vet the hunters available and willing to participate. -All hunts will be held during regular deer seasons. The hunters must have valid deer tags for the season in which the hunt occurs. -The CHAP coordinator and community partners can set "rules" for the hunt (weapons, sex of deer targeted, etc...) -The DNR is modeling their program after other states' similar programs. The bottom line, from what I can tell, is that this program has been started in preparation of more and more urban areas becoming overrun with deer. The DNR wants part of the pie that these private sharpshooter groups are getting paid for. It will be an uphill battle for the CHAP coordinators to get hunts approved, but there is monetary incentive to be the best salesman they can. Any New information you can share ? Has your Dad formed a group yet? Nothing new, no. I think the program stalled out a bit because of lack of community support and willingness to try it out.

Not a whole lot of luck on the Ohio this weekend. Found some spotted bass and I had a >36" long-nose gar on for a second before he bit my swim bait in half!

Will hopefully get on the Ohio River this weekend at least 1 morning. Water levels are finally stable again.

Great buck! Is that your home? Seriously jealous of your view if so. Not my home, but my "summer/fall" family campground on the Ohio River. Spend most weekends there from late March to early November.

Just picked up my 2017 buck from Alpine Taxidermy near Vevay, IN. This is my first pedestal mount, and I'm loving it!

I saw more deer last season than I've seen any other season and I hunted considerably less days. It was crazy some evenings.
