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

      New boat question

      By Wanderer · Posted

      As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…

      New boat question

      By Crow Hunter · Posted

      I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...

      Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?

      I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.

      You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.

      Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.

      The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there.  About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.

      It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway.  Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work.  You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water.  When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.

      We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.
