Ben's comment as of 11/17/17: With 20 deer in total and the contest is over.
                    It is Friday Nov 17th, and the contest is over. I know of at least 5 deer taken by people in the contest that didn't bring em in. All in all, 20 or 25 deer for the number of people in the contest, it was a good season. Only one Pope & Young Buck surprised me and no deer even close to 200 lbs. suprised me with the mild winter we had last year, I expected much larger deer winning. So much for my knowledge. Nelson Crosier's son is bringing in a buck he shot with his to kids with him and I couldn't wait to write that story. The season started out hot and dry. The last two days have been wet & windy with lower temps which brought down the rest of the leaves which really improves visibility. I really thought the last 10 days of the season would bring in a lot more deer. If your treestand is rocking and rolling in the wind go hunt standing corn. If there is a puttle of water in the field there is no reason for the deer to leave it. They have water, food and sex available without leaving the corn. Things are going to explode, soon. The weather doesn't bother the hunters with the bowhunting sickness real bad and they have taken some real nice bucks the very first week, because they know the deer eat, sleep and drink every day just like you do.  BRING EM IN !  & READ ALL ABOUT IT ! The Adults ended up with about a 20% success ratio which is better than the State average.
************************,***************************************
 NOTICE YOUNG ADULTS:  There are 19 Young Adults in the contest and so far Tim Frisbee and Riley Hirschman and  NOW LAUREN NOWAK  have brought in a deer.  Check her buck out you young adults. It will be hard to beat. Right now Lauren has two 1st places on the Young Adult side of the board, and a 1st & 2nd place on the Adult side of the Contest Board. Get your butts going, especially the girls. It would be super if a young lady wiped all the boys butts. Get it done you youngsters. You know I steal $ from the adults and give it to you youngsters. I think my dream above is coming true. Time will tell. GOOD LUCK YOU YOUNG ADULTS ! The Young Adults ended up with about a 16% success ratio which is better than the State average.

If your interested, here are my political views read on. If your not interested,
like I say below, you deserve what you get and have, and don't read them.

47% of the people in this country do not pay taxes and probably voted for
Obama, because life works for them just fine. Of the 53% majority left, only
65% of them vote because the other 35% of them don't vote because politics
has them upset for one reason or another. YOU DO THE MATH! We all know
the definition of insanity is not changing anything and expecting a different
result. The average family income is down OVER $4800.00 from two years ago.
If that doesn't get your attention, then you deserve what you get. What
matters, the only thing that matters is we need a change. Who knows what,
who did what, who said what, who promised what, doesn't matter, WE NEED
A CHANGE, and if we don't get it, well it's not like me to say, but, LIFE  WILL 
NOT  BE  AS  GOOD  AS IT WAS  ! Four days before the election I had a typical
non-voter in the shop and I kind of got in his face. He said he never voted
unless the person he wanted was running. I said who do you want? He said
Ron Paul, but he's so pissed off at politics in general he is not going to go
write in Ron Paul's name. I don't get it. He sure had a whole bunch of opinions
for a person that doesn't vote.
GOD  BLESS  AMERICA (Get your butt out and vote - some of my relatives
and yours gave there lives for your right to vote - cherish it.)
******************************************************
They say on the internet, I'm opinionated. Yes I am. I
try real hard to make this a better country and run my
business correctly. Life must suck to be a "Post turtle".

******************************************************
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'.

*********************************
It is not a NEW WORLD now, but it is a world where BAIL OUTS should
be LAST and THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA should be FIRST. We
have a country that we need to protect and cherish, The Constitution
of the United States and our Bill of Rights. OUR FREEDOMS.

*********************************
I'll keep my country just the way it was, my freedoms the way they were
when I was growing up, and you can keep all the CHANGE in a dark and
unsanitary place.       
*********************************
There is no freedom without capitalism and there is no
capitalism without freedom. I'm concerned about Small
Business. I'm concerned about my kids future. I'm really
concerned about my five grandchildren. And most of
all, I'm concerned about are countries future, because of
the current leadership, if you can call it that.
***************   GOD *** BLESS *** AMERICA    ***************
*************** FREEDOMS *** ONLY *** HOME  ***************
*********************************
PRAY for our people in the Armed Services - They are the
only part of our government I personally trust.

WHEN IS ENOUGH GOING TO BE ENOUGH?
DO WE REALLY HAVE TO HIT BOTTOM
BEFORE WE WAKE UP?

HOW MUCH MORE CAN YOU STAND?

In November you have the choice to be part of the
problem or part of the beginning of the repair of our
TOWNS, COUNTY, STATE & COUNTRY'S GOVERNMENT.
GET OUT AND VOTE!
 GOD  BLESS  THE  USA

LIFE  IS GOOD!
