I’m headed to a tree this morning to see if I can shoot a pig. We have some on a small spot that doesn’t normally have pigs so I’m going to see if I can put an arrow through one. The one in the picture has been in front of the camera right after daylight the last few mornings and today the wind is right. There is also a group of 8-10 smaller ones so I’m not going to be picky and hope to make something bleed.

All you need to do is shoot a booner and a doe and if we all do that, we might win! Haha

I have checked in but wanted to introduce myself. I live west of Atlanta about 25 miles from
The Alabama state line. I love to hunt and shoot my bow. This will be my 31st season bow hunting and hopefully should put some points on the board. I have access to several properties in the city limits of Atlanta and other urban spots. Quite a few big deer but they are just as hard to kill as anywhere but I’ve had good luck the last few seasons.

I’m going to Maine bear hunting the last weekend in August. I also have a Kansas and Illinois tag.

I hunt with an 07 Bowtech Allegiance that is a proven killer. I’ve had many newer bows but this one is my hunting bow. I’ll shoot a lot of different broadheads but my favorites at slick trick mags, grim reaper pro 4 blades, and qad exodus.

The deer contest is my favorite part about archery talk. I’ve made some good friends throughout the years and the best teams I’ve been on are the ones that post a lot. It’s nice to keep up with everyone’s season. This year I’ll get to hunt deer from September 10th- January 31st. We have several pieces of property that have bachelor groups of bucks on them but once they shed most will relocate and we might pick up some different ones.

Good luck Cornbread, always fun getting a little hunting in before deer season. I look forward to this contest every year as well. As long as everyone participates and can contribute a bit we have a great chance to win.

Hi everyone. Got the archery bug a couple years ago and it has gotten worse. As much as I like it I still want the meat in the freezer so I also use rifle during allowed times. This is also my first time participating in this on AT.

My schedule hunts so far this year are:

Nov 5-15 Ohio whitetail archery only. This is on private land with some big bucks running around. I'm hoping I hit the rut and can put some points up for us. I've never measured for any points so I'll need to figure that out.

December 31st - January 1st Barbary sheep NM.

December 17th-18th mule deer NM.

December 10th-14th elk NM. Going to take the bow on this but it is any legal weapon hunt. So a rifle will be my backup if I can't get in close enough.

I broke the ice for the team this morning. To bad it don’t count for points.

Man that's awesome! Hopefully I can get a hog hunt in later this summer in Texas. Eating that bad boy or just getting rid of the nuisance?
