i have tags for 1st, 3rd and 4th seasons in illinois' northern zone. my first season starts april 16 ... thats 18 days away, tomorrow will be 17, saturday 16 ... yeah, i am rarin to go. grin

nothin pops off my head for a name just yet. i'll think about it. maybe somebody else will have a killer name.

btw ... i thought there was talk last year of a guy being able to upgrade his bird entered in the contest if he happens to get a bigger bird with his second or third permit. didnt see it in the rules, though.

Season B Area 503

I'll get the ol thinking machine fired up here for some names.

Gonna try it out with the bow this year. Got a tom last year with a 10" beard with 1+" spurs that came in with one the same size and just about smoked one with the truck the other day with 2 hens when I drove by there, he had about the same size beard (thinking same bird from last year)

Hey IlliniWalli I dont remember that either but this is what I found so in that reguards I would say its a No.

4. Scoring of the bird will be based on the NWTF scoring system. Each member will be able to score one bird(the first bird taken for your season even if you are allowed more than one) for the Contest.

yeah, i saw that, gordie.

i have been in several contests the past couple of years and must have been thinkin about a different one.

i am cool with no upgrading. i was lucky last year that my first bird was my biggest. i will try and "take one for the team" and make sure i get a good one with my first tag this year.

i also am cool with "Sultans of Strut" (sorry, had to corx the spelling) grin

one more thing, gordie, tell your buddy sniper to stay the hell outta our thread. i think he keeps comin over here cause it will be the closest he comes to being on a winning team. laugh

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.

      I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
