Haven't hunted much this year.  My dad is struggling to pull back his bow so thats been keeping us out of the woods.  He's all pumped up for xbow and we're going to hunt the first 5 days and see if we can't get lucky.  Congrats on all the kills so far!  It's great refreshing this thread to get some live updates.  Thanks for everyone sharing the updates.   I hope to add some notes this week.  Good luck to all!

We're paying $15 an acre

2016 Yamaha Grizzly in excellent condition.  349 miles - upgraded wheels and tires, electric winch, electric handwarmers, 60 inch plow all professionally installed at Don George's.  Still have extended warranty until end of May 2021.  Machine was used for plowing and pull a few deer out of the woods.  4x4 with differential lock.  New battery this past April.  You will not find a cleaner used machine.  Always garage kept.  9000 obo

Called this nice tom in for my daughter this morning - 9 inch beard 7/8 spurs.  Savage .410 with 3inch tss loads.

Congratulations!

I'm trying to sell my guys on entering this year and this gives us a few more things to think about. 

I'm good either way on # of rods.  No observer would definitely help having a smaller boat.  I do like the idea of an observer in this type of a tournament.   I agree with Vince on the kings and coho.  Adding lake trout really doesn't interest me.  I like the idea of opening up Canadian waters.  Just my 2 cents, I'll be interested to follow along.  Thx!

Smoke one tomorrow!

Congrats!  It's a rush watching the kids harvest their first deer!

Good luck - we had a great time down there this past year!

This guy was behind my office in Tonawanda this morning.  

Brought my daughter to Southern Ohio Outfitters for a youth hunt.  She was able to score first thing this morning on a nice 10pt!

Congrats - great deer!

Congrats!  Great deer!

Great deer so far!  Congrats!  On stand for the first all day sit this year in 9k.  Been quiet so far except for the walk in.

Congratulations! Lots of big deer hitting the ground.  

Same deer?  Can't seem to get any day time pics.

That ghost blind looks pretty good there!  Good luck

My buddy rolls them up and puts them in a six inch PVC pipe with slid on end caps.  Seems to work well

I bought the 200 ft/min and I'm happy with them.  They're definitely well built.  Call them up and they'll answer any question you have.  

I've been running the magnum metalz the past two years and they've been great.  I would highly recommend https://www.magnum-metalz.com

I replaced 2 - 97 merc 150 2 strokes with 2015 150 4 strokes.  You won't be disappointed.  Didnt lose any speed and they're a lot better on fuel consumption.   Easy to maintain if you decide to do it yourself.

Have used lots of barnes tsx out of 7mm mag and 338 rum on elk. Excellent performance on game. Reloaders beware of seating close to rifling with solids. This can cause dangerous pressures. They like to have some jump space. Fwit. Be safe !

What grain bullet are you using for the 7mm?  I'm going to pick up a set of dies for mine.  I hand loaded for my 45-70 with 300 grain tsx and hand excellent results.  Hoping the same with the 7mm
