October 30th, 2010 was a special day at Creekwood
Archery. Many of you in the contest have heard me
say over the years, "I am so blessed to have this
business this time of year, when I get to put my hands
on some real class animals". Well today was extra
special. Checkout the Monster Typical Buck

Ben's comment:
This was the strongest first week in the
Creekwood Deer Contest History. As you know it rained
on Thursday and all day Friday and therefore all the bucks
were out and about freshening there scrapes. Nothing else
to do, the doe's weren't ready. We have more adults and
young adults than last year in the contest, but we have
had more entries in past years and to the best of my
knowledge this year was almost double our second best
opening day. The best first day we had before this year was
7 deer and 2 were bucks. This year we had 12 deer and three
were does.
        At the end of two weeks we have 33 deer in the contest
Stay tuned for an update. At the end of our contest we had
41 deer.

2010 FIRST WEEK ADULT YOUNG ADULT
SUCCESS 2010 6.5% 12.5%
SUCCESS 2009 FINAL 26.6% 52.9%
2010 SECOND WEEK ADULT YOUNG ADULT
SUCCESS 2010 6.5% 12.5%
SUCCESS 2009 FINAL 26.6% 52.9%

In the contest there are 18 winners (9 Young Adult & 9 Adult)
plus $10.00 blind drawing winners plus a new category this
year for out of state deer winning $$ BUCKS FOR BUCKS & DOES $$.
If your not in the contest you get treated the same. We just put you
on the Wood'a-Could'a-Should'a list. 
LIFE  IS  SUPER  GOOD !
While suturing a cut on the hand of a 75 year old rancher,
who's hand was caught in the gate while working cattle,
the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man.
Eventually the topic got around to Obama being our president.
The old rancher said, 'Well, Ya know, Obama is a 'Post Turtle''.
Not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked him what a
'post turtle' was. The old rancher said, 'When you're driving
down a country road and you come across a fence post with a
turtle balanced on top, that's a 'post turtle'.


The old rancher saw the puzzled look on the doctor's face so
he continued to explain. 'You know he didn't get up there by
himself, he doesn't belong up there, and he doesn't know what
to do while he's up there, and you just wonder what kind of
dumb ass put him up there to begin with'.
