This hot weather doesn't help me out much trying to get the big boys from moving nocturnally. Praying for colder weather and hotter does.

Slippin I think we are the running for a participation trophy only. Sounds like one of the other guys sent the MIA teammates a PM with no reply. I have been stuck are the past 16 days and still have 6 more days left.

I have been stuck are the past 16 days and still have 6 more days left. We got about 26 points pending from my and slippins bucks which would put us in the top 5. If those non existent members would man up and help, we still got a chance. I am hoping to improve on my 8 pointer over the next few weeks if this weather would cooperate.

I'm hoping for one more buck. The one I'm after is a big 8pt. Won't help our score but ya never know what will step out this time of year. The rut hasn't even thought about starting down here in Baldwin County. They should be stupid by next week though.

I have seen a 10 and another that could easily be a 12 as big as his rack and body was. Only saw Grandpa for about 10 seconds.
Ours should get cranked up pretty soon for those that didn't get bred the first go around.

I figured passing up on young bucks would sooner or later pay off but it's not looking like it.

You need something with the date written on it or a pic with you and the deer. I haven't looked at the pic you posted in the entry thread so you may have the correct pic.

If you kill another one just do one of the two picture requirements below and it will count. 4. Post the required pictures. CAPES WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED! The photo must show at least the entire front half of the deer or more showing the head attached to the body. Skull plates, mounts, or caped out deer will not be accepted! You have one of two ways to enter your deer. A picture of yourself with the deer with the points all showing or you may take a picture of the deer with SOMETHING (Paper plate/Piece of paper/Newspaper with the date readable) with the date, antler points if a buck, and team name/number.

Hopefully his big brother will drop by and I know what happened to the phone and can get a picture this time.

I'm still hunting and killed a mature 6 pt the other day. He's not going to upgrade my 11 pt kill.

Haven't seen any shooters during daylight where I'm at. Going to a private farm in cullman this weekend that my cousin has me set up on a good one. Let's hope they feel frisky this weekend.

A lot of guys posting their buck kills don't have a plate or anything. Just pictures. Will their kills be accounted for?

Went today for the last day and saw 7 does and 2 coyotes. Tried getting a shot on the coyotes but they saw me about the same time I saw them and off they went!
Looking for Grand Paw or Big Brother today but only the nannies were to be seen. With both freezers full, I give them a pass till next year.
I really enjoyed those of you that participated. It was good getting to know you a little bit better.

I shot at the biggest 8pt I ever had the chance to shoot at in Covington County on the 9th. I blew it though. All I found was a bunch of white hair. Then the guys on the property next to me shot him that evening. He was a 130-140" 8pt. Don't know if they found him or not. They just said they had good blood and was going to go look for him
