Yea know, we haven't seen or heard from that Merc guy lately??? He stuck in Inger too??? :rotflmao:

My wife was in his town of holdingford at the legion playing bingo when I was up deer hunting. She took the legion for $99.00 but gave it back in pull tabs  :confused: :rotflmao:

I've been north a lot this fall. We got a spike opening morning and three more Sunday morning. Went home Monday, came back the second weekend and got one more so we were filled out. My sons buddy has an open tag so I'm going back up with them this weekend.  We saw a lot of deer this year but nothing big but that's OK. Had no doe permits but the yearling bucks were around so a good season. Bingo in the Legion, never went down for that but it's a pretty good crowd normally.

I know a few Finkens, not real well but I know them. I also know a lot of people from Upsala as I've lived in the area all my life. Hodingford born and raised.  I get my venison done in Upsala, they do a great job there. Great living in a small town.     :happy1:

Bird hunting,  had some really good shoots up that way.  But the last few years the bird #'s seem down.

We were up in your neighborhood at least 6-8 times this season for the meat raffle merc. Even dragged Sis & BIL along once, our new neighbor went with us quite a few times too. Managed to win 3-4 times even, got some nice Ribeyes on the weekend of the  :deer: opener. Would be pretty  :cool: if'n we could get together over there sometime next season.

Gunner, I've been to a couple of the raffles too. My sons buddy won some rib eyes with chicken wings. Nice package of meat. I won a beer once.  We will have to get together there for sure. Nice crowd for those too.    :happy1:

We went up Thursday and came back Saturday. They saw three and and my son passed on a six pointer Friday just before dark, didn't want to mess with it in the dark  plus his buddy had the tag open. Had a good year so we were happy. Crossing six for the meat raffle is acceptable but hunting you may be pushing it a bit.     :rotflmao:
