Posted By jeremy at 4/2/2009 12:00:00 AM

What can you say about this place!! We are here at Crooked Creek Outfitters http://www.crookedcreekoutfitter.com/  in Buffalo South Dakota and it is truly awesome out here! Teams checked in Monday the 8th of Sept, lottery drew for their areas, filmed for team intros and guides took everyone to the areas they drew. That night we had our rules meeting and banquet at Saloon #3 resturaunt in Buffalo. Teams were extremely excited about the numbers of antelope in all the areas!

Day 2 was even better than the 1st. Ernie and Herb Filmed an unsuccessful spot and stalk but right after that, the herd moved close to the blind and Herb filmed himself taking a P&Y buck. Later on, our circuit leader going into this event, Mill Creek Outdoor Productions, regained their 1st place lead in the circuit with a spot and stalk doe hunt on film. The excitement didn't stop there, Kurt and Laura from American Bowhunters have really made an awesome comeback in this event. Laura filmed Kurt harvest an Antelope that ended up scoring 78!! With 2 filmed antelope hunts, this put American Bowhunter in the lead, not only in this event, but in the circuit as well!! Here are the current points standings.
