Well a super quiet walk in at 5:45...get to stand settle in and hear foot steps...I no sooner had sat the wind shifted...I hear the stiff legged 2 step and it trots off up hill from me..great now I smell...what the he__!...Everythings clean been out side...The gloves...my hands must have sweated the other day..they are now soaking in no stink soap...... then a fawn at day light runs past...a few minutes later a big doe and button are headed straight for me ..wind blows and the head goes straight up...she turns and walks a large ark around me

Gloves driving me crazy..I get down and 100 yrds from the house right on the edge of the road next to sweet corn plot is a bedded buck I kick up...points but not sure how many..2 bounds he's across the road headed toward the rye trail rt behind the house...I'd seen all these chewed up corn cobs as I walked the trail...I looked over to where he'd bedded and see husks and cobs..go look ...lol make me laugh...just like a big squirrel ...he'd been in the corn all night collecting ears...he actually had them in a pile where his bed is in different stages of being chewed...corn husks blown all around.......I know it's a beautiful day but I'm thinking about blowing leafs off trails behind house to blinds and then to blinds below I haven't hunted that area yet...Loved the near silent walk in today and not hearing snorts...

Wow what a great night! My walk in the woods in saw 3 does.

Got to my stand 10 minutes later a couple does worked their way towards me, one walked right into my shooting lane I drew my bow just before it walked in the opening had a clear 20 yard shot. Looked to the right and I saw that the doe was bigger but it was too late the smaller doe looked at me and would not turn, I swear I musta' been holding that bow for 7-8 minutes I couldn't hold it any longer, I tried to let it down as slow as possible, but they saw me! So they ran off snorting..

20 minutes later 2 more does came threw, they started walking towards me. I heard fanit noise which I thought was a grunt. Sure enough couple seconds later I heard another grunt and then I spoted a good 6 point, noise glued to the ground chasing the does when suddenly I & the deer hear a deep long grunt the six point could have not been outta there any faster! And I look over to the pines and see this huge bodie of a deer, then I look up and see this amazing looking 12 point buck.. He starts chasing the does and they all went over the hill...

I think the rut has started.

      Hi Everyone, 
      It is current the last week for regular season in upstate NY. Living the life working and being a full time student, I have some time off this week and would like to take a ride upstate to do a gun hunt. Never have I hunted public land in the areas 3 G, F, or N and was looking for some recommendations and help! I had used the DEC info locator and found California Hill and thought I might go there. Is there any recommendations on areas to go to in any of the wmu’s? Or on California? Any help would be really appreciated!! 
       
      best of holiday wishes!

      Hello everyone I’m currently looking at a house in deposit ny I’ve been deer hunting for many year mainly in Columbia and Greene county never been to Broome county. Before anything I was just curious how is the hunting there ? I know there aren’t any antlered restrictions in Broome but are there monsters out there or is it mainly just small spike? If anyone from that county or knows about deposit and broome county would get back to me i would appreciate it. Hope everyone hunting today catch a big one thanks.

      The procedure below to carry the bow is detailed below:
      You have to use a cotton towel or something similar. You have to wrap it around the bowstring. Doing so ensures that it will not cause an injury with the bowstring coming in contact with your body. It will not be that sharp either. Once you cover the bowstring with the towel, you have to wear it like a sling. So that it will not fall away from your body. The best way to cover the bowstring is to use a large enough towel. You can wrap it around twice as well. When making a sling out of the cotton towel, you have to ensure that you tighten it to get a snug fit. In that case, it will not slip away. Consequently, it will remain in place. When using this technique to carry a bow on your back, it is essential to practice before going in the wilderness. Only when you can move briskly and without noise using the scanning mechanism should you go ahead with it. To remove the bow, you have to hold it at the bottom. After that, you have to slip it over your head as well as arm. Doing so ensures that you can remove it quickly. When trying to focus on a prey, you need to remove the bow quickly. The technique for removal that we have highlighted above can certainly help you do so.

      I'm new to the area and looking for some places to hunt  the next few weekends through bow/muzzleloader season. I'm living in New Paltz, and the place that seems the most promising to me so far is Vernooy Kill State forrest, and north into Sundown. Has anyone had any luck in these areas? Is there anywhere better in the area I should check out? Any info is welcome

      Hi Everyone,
      My name is Raul and I am a new hunter! I've been hunting public land for now, but have been suffering. I've done 2 10 hour sits at Kings Park and 3 10 hour sits at Rocky Point and haven't seen one deer. I use a treestand and use scent blocker. I also get there super early in the morning. I need help! I plan to go again this friday. I scouted Rocky point after the first day and always see sign and I try to hunt the areas, but no success. I hunt around 42 and 36 I think. If someone wants the exact spot I can send them it on a map. I am really just looking for help in any areas and everything. I have put so much effort yet all i want is to just see one that will keep moral up. Any help is really appreciated!
