I had a giant 8 pointer chasing a doe while I was working on a roof right in ladys front lawn by vassar farm about 15 yrs ago. I thought the rut was starting early so hunted my ass off and when the real rut started in nov I was exhausted . It was a fluke... Rut is typycally same time evry yr just better when its cool.......

The best thing about back in the day was hunting huge pieces of property that someone owned from Manhattan and never even cared about who was on it. Zero posted signs. We had a lady down the street that owned 60 acres and had no idea how big 60 acres was. She thought it was the size of her lawn which was only an acre. Now every piece of land is accountant-ed for and someone is watching at all times... I was completely legal on the property lines a few years ago and other property owner was showing me the boundaries on his cell phone...

I pass on bucks all the time cause I do not feel there worth it. There is a place that is a mile into the woods that I pass on deer cause of that drag up and over mountain but if same deer was in my backyard I would not hesitate

Def 250 on the hoof

No I am on the border of kent never made it that far east. I come up route 7 in kent for years and it was all fields and I saw a big decline last summer and thought it was just weird year... only few deer at a time in fields when there were dozens and dozens in yrs past. Not as much on cameras last year and I got cameras everywhere in kent. Got several good spots. This year barely anything in fields in the summer and with no acorns barely anything in fields in fall where it should be loaded. I have 1 doe in my best spot where there should be atleast a dozen. A fly fisherman told me he seen several dead deer in housatonic. Something def going on... That being said cornwall areas and litchfield areas took some real nice bucks l;ast yr..

down in dutchess lagrange area and way way down in kent ct

Big bucks never go nocturnal... There in a spot where they feel safe close to food where they sleep for a few minutes at a time. They get up and stretch there legs periodically feed and still sniff does. Then when it is dark they will expand there range... You could still kill these deer if you know where there bedding area is......

reg cameras it does not matter but cell cameras you def have to use lithium

layers and more layers beats any parka or any overpriced garbage out there
