Took my buddy's 12 yr old out East on L.I. this morning...had torrential rains and some fog..no gobbling...did some light calling and had a bruiser run in from across the field and beat the heck out of Pretty Boy decoy and then Frankie flattened him at 10 yds with his Mossberg 20ga...all done at 6:20AM...AWESOME hunt and got it all on video. Bird weighed 20.5lbs 1 1/4" spurs 11" beard

This is one of my twins, her sister couldn't make the class this time but they're 11 so we have time We had to go directly from softball

One down this am..

Our dekes Someone had to borrow my fleece. It was 36 degrees when we left the woods Crossing the Wiscoy as she has ballet

Set the blind up last night to watch over the field this morning. I got there a little late (7:30) and there were two toms and 2 hens already out there doing their thing. Pretty sure they heard me undo the zipper on the blind as they made their way off. Did manage to yank a few gobbles out of them before they left, but other than that, it was pretty quiet out there. 2 different gobblers..

Well he's up and dressed in camo, having breakfast and still on the phone. Lol Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

My cousin got his first bird ever a Jake at 9:30 this morning! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yea. I do about 2-3 minutes in the microwave to make them softer. Then mix with olive oil salt and pepper. Then on the grill for like 5min per side and they come out charred and taste great.

Sounds like the Starter is shot. Its an easy enough fix. Disconnect the battery, & remove the old starter. See of the bendex gear is all chewed up.

So this is what we saw at 6 ish this morning about 400 yds away ..... And they disappeared because we saw this a few minutes later.... Nothing since so we decided to come in. Too windy and they were spooked. Tomorrow is another day! Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Tab S2

Congrats! I had an awesome hunt this morning too. Thought we had the deal closed first thing...moved on to a different group of birds...killed one at 9:30.

Just around the corner from us lol

I'm getting the "I'm bored. .." already. Humpf. It's this instant gratification thing these kids expect nowadays. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

Rise and shine. Uppy , uppy. Just got dressed and woke daughter. Have a great , safe and memorable hunt to whom it may apply

Lol I go thru this feeling nightly as I work second so it's either leftovers I brought or wheel of death garbageSent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

My wife and daughter left for vacation at 2 P.M. My son brought home an awesome looking sub, for himself. So I made myself a toasted grilled cheese and ham sammy, that I forgot about and kind of burned, so now I'm just sitting here looking at all these awesome pictures of food. I hate all of you!! LOL!!!!

Again ,,,Im just telling you the facts… You can do what you want. But selling, buying or possessing a rifle, as you described, is 100% illegal in NYS, unless the rifle has been made NYS compliant. Sounds like neither of the shops you have been dealing with knows WTH they are talking about. In NY, under LIL Andy…any semi automatic rifle (center fire or rim fire) that has a detachable magazine can not have a pistol grip, or a flash suppressor, or a bayonet lug or a collapsable stock or any other "evil feature". Its not hard to look up on line. Good luck.

I'm in with my son. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

No mahn..., 'twasn't me mahn. We wuz on da Harris Heeeel Road mahn!

Good luck!

You know he wrote and collaborated with miles davis as well... he spanned many kinds of music.. his death is a great loss to music in general.. even local bands covered his music..goo goo dolls for.example,. He created Sheena e, the time, and helped madonna, beyonce, wutang clan write and produce many songs... rip..

Prince was a better genius than some people even realize. Aside from all the hits he's made, he also wrote songs for other people who probably wouldn't have ever made it if it wasn't for him. He wrote "Nothing Compares 2 U" for Sinead O'Connor and "Manic Monday" for the Bangles among others.

Brown trout for me!

Damn, I seen him a couple times live. When Mack did his big comeback album with SRV's help, he played with keyboardist Stan Szelest of "Stan and the Ravens". Szelest played regular in Buffalo when I was living there and later moved to Woodstock where one would see him regular when he played with The Band's members locally. Mack showed up at one of those impromptu jam sessions I happen to catch and played a hell of a set. Szelest died years ago in his late 40's in Woodstock area. Lots of interwoven connections between all those talented musicians back then.....

I hate this thread....lol....just bought a 08 silverado Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

He could write both music and lyrics, play any instrument in front of him, sing, engineer or produce studio work, perform on stage, and at the same time keep the media titillated. That's not easy to do, and he did it for over forty years. Like his stuff or not, he was an extremely influential musical talent. He was an artist.

If it turns out to be the starter, don't buy the new one from the dealer. Go to NAPA, they will have a good quality replacement for far less money than the dealer will get out of you.

Saw 3 huge toms way across the field hened up already. Two huge yotes heading opposite direction. Got some pics of them on my SLR. Will post later. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

Ha

Haha. I was wondering if anyone was going to flame me for that without catching the "a few years ago" part. Good catch! But ya that pic is like 3-4 falls ago I believe. That area has a very healthy flock and was able to sustain a thinning of hens. We actually started shooting more hens during the fall to increase spring time fun. For years the flock kept growing and the toms just wanted nothing to do with us in the spring as they had so many hens already to choose from. There has been times we would sit on the porch at camp and count over 100 birds in a single group as they walked through our backyard/field. Otsego county has some great turkey hunting!

need to get everyone you can and vote for Gibson and dethrown Cuomo. nobody votes anymore. they think it's hopeless yet the numbers are there. how we beat voted out his dad.

Hahaha good catch but Its actually my little league baseball trophy. I appreciate the nice words though!

and, if I recall correctly, didn't many of the AR compliant manufacturers recently notify owners that NYS told them that even the one's they have been making are no good? something along the lines of anything being built on an AR frame is considered an assault weapon...or something like that.

Sweet! Thanks for the great reply that's a big help! I was thinking of making a run on Tuesday or Friday for crappies but will gladly take more perch if there are none to be found. Will report back if I get out with hopefully directions to the crappies for ya lol

Good luck......I am sure he well put the phone away for the hunt I go thru this with my son and he is 22..............just enjoy the time together just you and him if the birds come in great.......

Thanks for the suggestion WNYBuckHunter , and your right about the camo dipping lasting longer than paint. The only problem is , that I cant find any companies that have the original camo dipping pattern available. I guess I'll go with the realtree xtra green pattern when the time comes. Maybe I'll give Mossberg a call and see what they suggest. Thanks again.

Caught a bunch in Chautauqua this morning. We went down for crappie and couldn't find a single one

Yes, The results will be published on our web page, and also passed along to the Bill Sponsors to use in their discussions in Albany.

that sounds like rich mans philly cheese steaks, the ones in philly are steakums and cheese whiz

Agreed. And some people also don't acknowledge the talent of an artist simply because the artist doesn't play the kind of music they like to listen to. If they don't like his music, he must not be any good.

Want to avoid all appearances of discrimination? Get ALL the human faces off the money. Use the Bald Eagle, Niagara Falls, Mt. Hood, a Blue Marlin, the Grand Tetons or any other specimen of nature in our land. That would shut the mouth's of all of the PC cry babies.

And we found even more this time. It was a blast! Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

Just wanted to show one of the prizes that we will be offering. The lamp was made by our very own wooly and he has graciously donated it for the contest. Can't thank you enough wooly for supporting this contest and our youth hunters!!
