Come On September!!
I'm sitting here at this computer thanking the good Lord I get to be inside this tmie of year since it's 100 degrees outside! All the while, I'm SO READY to get outside this fall. Dad, Trey, Kevin, and I all found out today that we drew antelope tags for Wyoming, so we're jacked up about that!
Boy the Backwoods Crew is gonna have a busy fall. Antelope in Wyoming, Mule deer in Colorado, Whitetails and Mule deer in Nebraska, Idaho elk, Florida alligators, Indiana whitetail, Kentucky whitetail, Iowa whitetail, and let's not leave out Georgia, South Carolina, and Alabama for whitetail and hogs too! Good Lord willing and the creeks don't rise we hope to have a LOT of critters at the taxidermist after 2008 ends and a TON of great footage for you all to see. Speaking of taxidermists, I'm proud to say we have a new one on board. Southern Wildlife Taxidermy in Leesburg, GA will be doing some work for us this year. Sean Knights and his crew does a great job and we are really excited about it all.
Whew, I'm tired already! Anyway, where are some of you all hunting this fall? Did you get that tag you've been waiting on? Are you just gonna kill a big un' in your home state? We'd love to hear what everyone else is doing.
God bless and good huntin!
Stayin cool,
The Backwoods Crew

Finishing Off the Spring!
The Backwoods Crew went out in style to wrap up turkey season in Nebraska. Michael, Trey, Kevin, and good friend Greg Turner headed out west to hunt with Chris Vaughn and Bryan Clines of Adventures Wild. The guys touched down in Denver, CO and made the 3 hour drive to Nebraska where the turkey season was in it's final days. On the first morning the guys saw a ton of birds and gobblers everywhere, but had no luck right off. Michael and Kevin were hunting with Chris and shortly after lunch both of them scored with in 15 minutes of each other. About an hour after Michael and Kevin scored, Greg missed a nice gobbler in almost the same spot!
Day two began with Trey hunting with Michael and Chris. Not long after daylight Trey's shotgun roared and he put a tag on a stud Merriam's. Greg would soon get another chance as he sat and watched a gobbler strut for 6 hours with Trey videoing and Bryan guiding. Finally Greg got a shot at the bird and made this one count, filling his tag.
Day three had more birds gobbling and strutting and two more tags used as Bryan and Trey both scored to cap off a great trip and turkey season for the SBA team.
God bless and good hunting!

Turkey Turkey Turkey!
The SBA crew has been wide open hunting this spring all over the US. We've had some great times so far and many more to come. Here are a few things that have gone on in the woods this spring so far.
Mike Lee and Michael Lee headed to Oklahoma and scored on two nice Rios in the same afternoon. Michael's had a longer beard, but Mike's weigh a pound more and had 1/4 inch longer spurs. You can't stop the older Mike, just hope to contain him!
Just a few days later, Mike and Michael were back in the woods on the family farm in South Georgia. The first day the weather was a wash and the afternoon was all quiet. The second morning the weather was clear and cool. The gobblers were hammering and after a couple of hours calling and working a group of gobblers Michael scored with his second bird of the week! This bird had 1 inch spurs and a 10.5 inch beard to cap off a great week of father-son hunting!

Spring Time in the South!
We've been wide open in the turkey woods this spring and these dang Georgia gobblers have been kickin' our butts. But we've only begun to start. Dad and I are headed to Oklahoma to hunt with Troy of TL Guided Hunts and my good buddy Alan Sentell. We've also got a trip lined up with my bud Chris Vaugh of Adventures Wild for some Nebraska steroid chicken hunting. So things are looking up for the SBA boys.
Also we just got back in from the Country Goes Huntin' charity event and we had a blast. It was good to get to hang out with some of our pals that we don't get to see often enough.
Well, keep em' gobbling and hunt hard!
God bless,
Michael "headed out west" Lee

Spring Has Sprung
Ladies and gentlemen, spring is here! The turkeys are gobbling, flowers blooming, fish biting..........it's here! With that, we've been in the woods chasing long beards for a couple weeks now and the first SBA member to put a gobbler down was Mike Lee, now imagine that! Lucky as a leprechaun on March 15th, actually March 23rd though, Mike busted up the nice gobbler with a 10.5 inch beard on one of our private farms here in Georgia.Well, can't chat long, gotta hit the turkey woods!!
God bless and good hunting,

Number One!
With 2008 running wide open now, we have introduced some new changes to the SBA website as well as a new blog / online journal. We'll keep everyone up to date on the latest news and successful hunts right here. Even throw in a few pictures and who knows what else!
As many of you know in the past we had three blogs, one for each of the hosts. To be honest, the guys stay so busy it's hard for each of them to keep a current blog going. With this, each of them and the SBA team members can post info and much more!
