They showed up in masses at my house over the weekend.  Neighbor has a boxelder tree.  Brought lots of wasps and ladybugs with them.  I think the unexpected warm weather brought them out in full force this past weekend.  I hadn't seen that many bugs all summer.  I called a pest control company as I needed my crawl space and other taller areas of the house sprayed that I couldn't get to. 

Try a little bit of cheese.  Thats what we do with our venison meatloaf.    1lb of vension/beef 1 egg 3/4 cup of milk 1 cup shredded shedder 1/2 cup of bread crumbs or oats salt   Give that a try. 

Ladder stand in Hickman County last season (hunting the same stand again this season): My other tree stand - back deck of 300 acre family farm in West Virginia: The next day doing some snow hunting and took a huge farm doe at dusk (was not one of these): Filled the freezer with this one (hunted between some hay bails):

I stick to Realtree AP exclusively but have two different sets.  One for mild temperatures and one heavy duty set (freezing your butt off weather).  The biggest factor as mentioned above is keeping movement and noise to a minimum and down wind.  Being scent free as much as possible is just as critical as the camo. 

Remington 700 with heavy barrel in .308 with a Leupold VX-3 4.5-14x40mm.  Great rifle and yet to let me down.   

Welcome to the forum!  :woohoo:

  Likewise, thanks everyone! 

  Any updates?

  Thank you!

  Not that I am aware of.  It's a @bellsouth.net address. I asked him while ago to check his spam/junk filter.  Waiting on a response. 

  He is telling me that he has registered many times but the email never arrives.

Appreciate it.  I will ask him to go back and check his email for a confirmation in case he missed it and will check back here later to see if you found out anything else.  Thanks again!

A friend of mine that I told TGO about recently joined and can no longer login.  His user name is Up2snuff.  Is there a password reset option for him?   Thanks!  

UPDATE:  There are two open spots remaining. The cost is $635 for 2800 acres with 28 members.  Send a PM if interested. 

Buddy of mine is swinging by EW around lunch time to check it out and I'll have an update for us then. 

Here are a few good ones from my trail camera this past season:

Good riddance.  I'm sure BSNBC will welcome him with open arms.

  Must have been from the Antique Show going on.  :shrug:

Welcome to the forum!  TN is a great place as is the Middle Tennessee area.

I picked up a waterproof friction (composite) call at the show and my buddy picked up a waterproof box call (one handed use with a rubber band attachment) and also a Ghost Blind.  After all the rain last turkey season I am ready to put it to use. Good show this year.  Not as much flea market stuff as last year and smoother process of getting in.  Didn't have to wait in a super long line.

  I was there on Thursday night and there was no 9mm.  Lots of .40S&W 100 round bulk packs, .45 ACP, 38 Special and 223.  Even some 357 Sig.  I haven't seen 9mm there in a long time. 

  No problem!  Thanks Dave.  No bites yet.  Will give it a little more time.  The last thing i want to do is put an ad on Craigslist. 

I am looking to sponsor a few TGO members that are of high character (respectful, responsible, ethical, and safe) on a hunting lease in Hickman County if anyone is interested for the 2014 season.  We currently have 1355 acres and if we fill our current 14-15 membership we will look to add another 1400 acres that we have an option on and add a few more members.  The cost is $600 due by April 1st.  It's a bargain.  I have been hunting there the past 2 years and would be happy to share some trail cam pictures and info.  Also looking for someone to scout and hunt the property with.  One of my close hunting buddies had to have some major back/neck surgery and unable to renew this year.  This lease does require a 4 wheeler.  It can be done without a 4 wheeler but would make it very tough. The new lease begins on 6/1 but if anyone wants to just check it out we can go out during turkey season and I can show you around.  We have a very large area that has room for campers and tents.  The current membership is a lot of good guys that help each other out and that is what we are looking for more of.  It's off Highway 100 a few miles shy of Lyles, TN.  Takes about 1.5 hours to get there from Nashville.  Please send me an private message if interested and if I've posted this in the wrong area please let me know.    

  Likewise, there was a waterproof slate turkey call that I should have bought last year that I will be looking for again this year. 

I am going on Saturday if the NWTF would hurry up and send me my new membership card so that I can get in.  I renewed it back mid December.  Called them two weeks ago and got some excuses and that I should have it soon so that I can show it to them to get into the show with no charge.  I did already receive the free $25 Bass Pro gift card a week after I renewed my membership.
