I said early in the year that we should get someone new to run the contest. I'm not sure I'll have a lot of time for cheerleading or hunting.


Maybe that new guy who was looking forward to all our stories but then disappeared will run it


Are you going to hunt the early bow season? End of March is sneaking up on us.

8.) Swamp Fox - 03/11/2018

All of you other goobers too!!

:wave:


Back atcha!


Okay, I see what's going on here. Since *no one* has joined the forum that we could talk into being the new Contest Wizard, I'll put this one together, but I need y'all to recruit people.

Who is hunting earliest? If I don't get an answer, I'm going to start things April 1, which leaves some people SOL.

I don't know that I'll have a chance to hunt, so that's one less entry than usual. If this contest is going to amount to anything, y'all need to get some of your friends and old members involved.

Also open to a prize for the winner ----or sumpn--- to make this thing interesting ...

19.) Swamp Fox - 03/19/2018

Oh, and by the way, from Ireland ...

Looks like when God got done with this, he had a lot of spare parts left over and no clear understanding of how it was supposed to work.





egg lair...

29.) Swamp Fox - 03/20/2018

They're complicated creatures.

No one understands how it all works.
