oldreloader checking in. My season starts April 11th in Arkansas.

**Jorden** · 03-03-2009, 09:49 PM

Anyone have any team name ideas? Here is a couple I thought of:

The Flock
Gobbling Goons

What does everyone else think?

**elnor** · 03-07-2009, 08:01 AM

My season starts April 6th here in Oklahoma. I'll be after Easterns first, then Rios.

Team name idea: Spur Stringers

Others?

Another Okie here--can't wait!! Saw some big tracks today out on my land but have a few stray dogs hanging around and that is not good for birds.

I like Spur Stringers!

**elnor** · 03-09-2009, 12:04 PM

Any other suggestions for team name? Or are we settled on Spur Stringers?

Let me know and I'll PM Strut10 if we're settled.

**Jorden** · 03-09-2009, 05:42 PM

Spur Stringers is cool with me

**oldreloader** · 03-09-2009, 07:07 PM

Spur Stringers is fine with me.I'll do my best to live up to it.

**elnor** · 03-10-2009, 12:09 PM

Spur Stringers it is, then. I sent Strut a PM on that.

Has anybody seen western NY bowhunter in the forums lately? I think that's the only team member who hasn't checked in yet.

**elnor** · 03-10-2009, 12:17 PM

I'd love to see pics from everybody of last year's hunts, birds, etc. A little motivation, you know.

I'll get things started: Here are some photos of me with my second bird from last year, one I nicknamed "Hummer" because he was a big old bird, my biggest to date. Hoping to find his big brother this spring!

He was a bonafide limbhanger:

The secret to his limbhanging prowess was 1 3/8 inch spurs:

And yes, I did string those spurs and wear them with pride!

**Jorden** · 03-10-2009, 02:32 PM

No bird for me last year or ever for that matter

...I still am searching for my first gobbler

**elnor** · 03-17-2009, 03:43 PM

What season(s) are you hunting this spring, Jorden? I bet you'll bring in bird Numero Uno this spring!

Has anyone heard from or seen western NY bowhunter on the RT forums recently? Still hoping he'll checkin soon; I'm going to ping him and Strut10 to see what's up.

I'm itching to go...our season opens three weeks from yesterday!

**Jorden** · 03-17-2009, 04:37 PM

I start May 13th and get to hunt until the 24th...never had any luck in the late season but hopefully this year will be different

**elnor** · 03-22-2009, 10:04 PM

Strut10 will assign us an alternate for westen NY bowhunter when we're ready to give up on them checking in.

Are we ready to pull the trigger on that yet?
