Good idea guys, We will wait until AFTER season to do this, February Duldrums? This will be a good time to recap the season. Hopefully we'll all have stories to tell. Thanks for the input. BT

You guys are right about being tough to judge. But you can still get an idea by the mass throughout the rack and also the neck is somewhat readible. You can see that his neck blends in well with his shoulders and he has good neck muscle. This would tell me that he was at least 3-1/2 last...

What do you think he'll age? I know it's not a prime picture to age, but take a shot at it. The photo is from last year, so lets age him for this year (add 1 to your guess) BT

Done. We will set up a time for after breeding season. Otherwise nobody would show up. I agree we should have plenty of video and pictures to discuss. Thanks for the ideas, very helpful. BT

I haven't laughed that hard for years!!!!!!!!! That is pure comedy, wouldn't expect anything less. I need to move down there to get in all that action. I about choked on my busch light when I was reading that My vote for september trailcam contest ends here. I also think that needs...

I was in the doghouse all weekend, since I am unable to get up into a tree due to my injuries. I picked it up at wally for 65.99 in Creston, and I am happy with it. I'm on the same page as shovel, the blind is cheap compared to the double, but it gets the job done. And to be honest with...

Would anyone be willing to attend an aging seminar? Central IA QDMA is thinking about hosting a hands on aging seminar somewhere in central IA as a fundraiser. We would be bringing in qualified specialists to speak and display multiple pictures, jawbones, etc. to shed some light on...

I second the update! Onecam, how are the plots looking? BT

deernstuff, You make valid points, and your right not everyone cares about qdm. But, we are not here to persuade everybody nor is qdm. QDM is for people who want to be involved in management. They get enjoyment out of planting, or planning and seeing results. It gives whitetail fanatics an...

Hey guys, Just wanted to let you know that we have put together a contact list for our branch. I will be sending them out today & tomorrow via email. Thanks, BT

No problem, I know it is lengthy, but I thought it was important. I harvested my first nub buck this year which I thought was a 2-1/2 yr old doe. It is a horrible feeling and I am ashamed of this. We shot three antlerless deer that morning and didn't even realize that one of them was a...

Here is an article on Button Buck Biology by Brian Murphy (Head of QDMA) It's a good read. BT QDMA Articles : Button Buck Biology Back to List By: Brian Murphy You could feel the tension in the air as the truck neared the property's deer check-in station. Word had spread that Billy had...

As limb said: Winner's Choice, NO COMPARISON. Good Luck. BT

No problem NW I think the earn a buck tag is a great idea, but I think it would be hard to sell to traditionalists. I'm planning on speaking to the DNR soon about QDMA and I will definitely go over this topic to get their opinion on the subject. I can tell you right now that it will be...

Droppin bombs!! Is that your hail mary pin? BT

No problem NW, I didn't get your photo with the email the first time. If you can send me the photo, I will be more than happy to post it for you. To fill you in on some details... I'm in the process of making a large picture of all of our 2004 doe harvests for QDMA. It will be...

Well spoken Canjoco. This is a good lesson for all of us, including me. I've yet to ever wear a safety harness and I will start now. BT

Thanks for the info guys. I went out and shot 6 different bows today except for the xtec. I was pleased with the outback the most but still impressed with the mighty mite. I found a decent deal on a swap site for almost half the price of a new one. I bought my havoctec the same way, even...

Thanks guys, T$, I'm exited to hear how it all turns out. Have you noticed a substantial growth in your buck heards? Antlers, body size, bigger/younger deer... Interested to hear some results. BT

I shot the bowtech mighty mite the other day and fell in love with it. I'm a Hoyt guy, so before I get a divorce with hoyt, I would like to know if anybody would recommend shooting another bow before I trade in my HavocTec. I have shot matthews, (excluding the outback), Hoyts (except for the...
