  1. Out here again lets go baby! If its not a fawn its going down today im hungry!
  2. Well today draws to an end 7 straight days of hunting with no action, work all day tmrw but will be back out monday. Good luck to you all!
  3. Been out here since sunrise, man is it cold, no deer have come by yet but im hanging in there, goodluck to all of you out here with me
  4. Good to know im not the only one getting wet out here, snow on the ground and rain coming down. Hard to hear with everything coming down but heres to hoping. Damn squirrels keep playing tricks on me tho
  5. I have work everyday at 4 so ill be out there from dawn till about 1-2 except Fridays, all day Fridays!!! Don't have much experience but the only bucks I've seen we're at 9 and 11 am
  6. Thanks man! And yea I deff got the bug, I'm hooked!! although ill admit I've been more focused on getting my first buck lately with bow season so close, but come winter you'll find me out there in my snow camo callin coyotes.
  7. So this is my first coyote I took him down last year a little after Christmas time, it was 3am and I'm laying in bed can't sleep so I thought what the hell it just got done snowing and it's a full moon, so I get outta bed and head up north in Saratoga county to this lady's farm to do a little calling, I get on stand and not even 10 minutes goes by before I hear somthin I never heard before.. A damn wolf howl!! Now for those of you who have never been alone in the woods, at night, and heard this sound piercing the air, it sends chills down your spine, luckily I had my trusty 1944 mosin nagant, that's right I'm out coyote hunting with a wwII relic.. Anyways right after he finishes I hear what sounds like 100 coyotes barking and yapping, needless to say my blood is pumping, I grab my promos cottontail call and start my best dying rabbit impression, about 10 minutes later I see this guy running full speed across the field coming right at me!! I let out a whistle and he stops about 70 yards I was so nervous/excited the second I got him in my sights I pulled the trigger, I see him spin and take off into the woods, I hop up instantly and run out praying to see some blood, and there it is!!! My first blood trail in the snow! I'm so damn excited my legs are shaking I take off after him and find him about 60 yards away and he was a lot bigger than I was expecting I have a knife in my hand as I approach him still breathing, I place my hand on his chest praying he dosnt jump up and bite me, and I feel him take his last breath, man I can't explain my feelings at that moment, it was my first time out coyote hunting and It couldn't have gone any better, turns out I made a pretty bad shot but it got the job done and under the circumstances I'm lucky to have held on to my rifle haha anyways here's some pics, sorry for the quality it was just me a cell phone and a cheap flashlight.
  8. Thanks guys and yea Larry302 I can't complain the coyote was quite the experience!! and pa3190 sounds like a awesome camp you got goiin, I would absolutely consider joining something like that but cranberry lakes about 3 hours from me and I'd be looking for something a little closer.
  9. Just made an account here, great site from what I've read, nice to see all these ny-ers all in one place, a little about myself, I'm 20 lived in Waterford my whole life untill last year now I live in Latham, this will be my second season out hunting, last year saw some does and got a coyote and turkey, this year I have a stand and a bow so lookin forward to having that extra time in the woods. Hunt public land for now, one day that'll change. Anyways lookin forward to reading some stories and sharing my own. Good luck out there!
