  1. Thanks for the insight. I've looked at Erwin a few times (on maps) but never ventured over. Might have to make it a point to go in the fall. Maybe even a spring scouting trip. Really appreciate it Sent from my SM-S901U using Tapatalk
  2. This year I was able to making to hunting camping in the southern tier for 3 weekends. Least amount I've been up to hunt in almost a decade. But this year spend more time in an area I've always overlooked and was pleasantly surprised by the number of grouse sightings. I think this coming fall I might bring the dog with and spend time hunting/exploring on foot and less hours sitting in a syand with the bow. Anyone spend a fair amount of time on upland birds in the state forests above Corning/Painted Post? Just looking for tips/tricks/advice. Thanks Sent from my SM-S901U using Tapatalk
  3. Thanks for the reply. I'm not opposed to preserves as early season options to get the dog prepped and blow the dust off the gun. But also looking for public land suggestions. Thanks again Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
  4. Hopefully I'm in the right section of the forum. I'm looking for tips and advice for pheasant and grouse in NY. Primarily within 30-40 min of the painted post area. I'm from central PA but belong to hunting camp in NY and with limited time off in the fall I'm looking to capitalize by maybe pheasant hunting the morning and archery hunting the evenings when I head north. I've come to appreciate New York and it's outdoor opportunities, more and more as the years go by. I'm hoping my new pup will be a bird hunting machine. Thanks for any and all help.

  5. I’ve hunted PA for years, state game lands are mismanaged and tend to be relatively small and over hunted. Soon as pheasant season rolls people go crazy for farm birds. That being said there’s plenty of big buck on state game lands. State forest has large tracts across the state, great access everywhere. I hunted Ohio for a few years for early archery. There seemed to be much better managed game lands/wildlife areas. I wasn’t lucky enough to come across the big bruisers but the sign was there everywhere and piles of doe.

  6. Thanks for the clarification everyone. Really do appreciate it. The crossbow very looks like just a print out you sign and keep with your license correct? I have my regular archery education safety card, so I’m good for that. Thanks again very much Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. The way it’s worded saying if you buy both permits/privileges you receive 1 antlerless and 1 either sex. I just wasn’t sure if there were stipulations somewhere I wasn’t seeing. So in theory I can hammer a doe and a buck in archery and then a buck in rifle? Shooting 9 deer in the season is well above my plans. I’m just hoping for 2 but want to be legal for the different seasons Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. Trying to navigate the NY game site but figured I’ll ask here as well. I understand I can use a crossbow the last 14 days of archery season (southern section), as long as a muzzleloader tag is purchased. Can that tag only be used for doe/antlerless deer? Or can a buck be legally taken? Second part of the question is if I’m just buying the tag to primarily hunt the muzzleloader season, can buck be taken or is it antlerless? In PA the early muzzleloader season (online season and flintlock) is for only antlerless. The late muzzleloader (flintlock only) you can use your buck tag (if not already filled) for a buck or a doe. Thanks for help Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. Sent a pm, hope to hear back soon. Thanks for listing Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. Thanks for the responses. Hopefully I’ll be able to use one of these butchers this year. Unfortunately i don’t see myself getting up north until November. Good luck to everyone Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. PA hunter trying to be legal with the new regs we have about transporting harvested deer. Can anyone recommend a good processor around painted post or Corning? I’m looking before I even bother to hunt (hopefully that doesn’t mess up my mojo) Thanks for any and all help. Just a basic butcher is all I need. And I suppose taxidermy recommendations too. Says we can’t bring back the skull with any brain matter and I don’t see myself boiling a skull before coming home. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. Anyone have any advice on the Management Area/Gamelands near Gang Mills? Saw a mention of it while looking around online. Most likely going to check it out but am curious if it's worth the time? If it's over pressured/hunted, I'll pass and stay where I'm at. Also any advice on southern areas would be greatly appreciated. I'm about 2 hrs south of Corning so I'd prefer to stay semi local Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. I've shot the E35 and loved it. I have never shot a bow with such a smooth draw cycle. I shot 2 obsessions a fusion and a Phoenix. One was nice, average draw with good back wall, super fast. The other, the draw felt better the back wall just as solid, and again a fast bow. Unfortunately I don't remember which was which. I shoot a 2014 Faktor which I thoroughly enjoy. If The Nitrum didn't overly impress me, not enough of a change from the Faktor to justify the upgrade. The turbos (spider/Nitrum) didn't have a smooth draw. The NoCam also wasn't amazing, it's nice overall but not amazing. If I were getting a new one this year I'd look at the rest of the obsession line up before most likely ending up with the E35.

  14. Thanks Fletch, I'm not 100% ready, still have shafts to get/arrows to build. My brain goes from trout season to hunting season, never could quite get into bass. Maybe this will be the summer for it Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. Just got back from a morning scouting session. Everything's a lot thinker than I remember it from rifle, guess I should have figured as much. Got on a few good trails but nothing overly open. Seems the best trails were in thick pines. Without asking for specific stand locations anyone have recommendations for gamelands or state forests in the Corning/coopers plains or Addison area? I'm hoping to find somewhere a little more open with hardwoods or fields. If not, adapt and overcome. Still at the end of the trip it was a great morning spent hiking and testing the new GPS, at the very least. Thanks for any and all advice. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
