You all know I was able to buy the 10 acre parcel next to my camp. So know I border another camp consisting of 66 acres. I have never met the owner and in fact they didn't show up for the last two seasons. You can go online and pretty much find out anything about your neighbor in the tax map section for your county. I did this and got his address and sent along a friendly letter introducing myself. That was a week ago and I received a phone call from him today. He really appreciated the letter and was looking forward to meeting me in a couple of weeks. We were on the phone for 15-20 minutes and I felt like I knew the guy. Always like to extend my hand first and see what happens……it will pay off in the long run.

Give them water and shade or whatever they need to stay cool. Animals overheat quick. This is our puppy yesterday on the cool garage floor with a fan

Ok I will play ...

I got one from my local archery shop not too long ago, if you have one nearby see if they can give you one.

Some great bucks here! This is my 2015 buck. I'll be happy if I get another like it next season...I'm hoping for a little better though haha. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Fresh frog legs. Cooked over the fire, in cast iron. Doesn't really get much better.

Don't know how too rotate the pic, but me and my son off Caladesi island with a nice snook.

guess I haven't used charcoal in a while [emoji15]

So got sight good enough at 15 yards to shoot consistently these are left over arrows mine are on order...no stabilizers or quiver yet just single pin and Qad drop away. First thing I noticed was how quiet this bow is I mean quiet quiet what a difference not to mention how smooth the bow shoots it holds back nice doesn't want to jump forward at all overall I'm stoked can't wait to get some longer ranges dialed in to shoot some deer. 2016 matthews htx 28 draw 60 # dw Trophy Ridge single pin Qad drop away Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

The Field and Stream Flyer was in today's paper . It showed a Masterbuilt 30" Sportsman's Elite Electric Smoker for $!49.98 ( orig price $239.99 ) . Drove to Henrietta after church and breakfast to buy one . Also bought a 4 pack of different wood chips . I used a $20 coupon and $83.29 in gift cards . Now I have to learn to use the darned thing . My oldest son and one of my daughters have smokers and use them on a regular basis . My neighbor also has a smoker and made the best Spare Ribs I ever had in my life .

Mussels with a beer Gorgonzola cream sauce( , onions , garlic ,Gorgonzola, bacon fat , beer )with crumbled bacon and good bread and butter. One of my favorites

Use the Hoyt box above, that way nobody will want to steal it.

My neighbor at camp can't stop telling me how many deer he has been seeing this spring/early summer. I guess this mild winter we just had doesn't subtract to the population that much. Ill be up to check cams July 15th that should give me a good look.

Good idea . A lot of guys that buy bows take them from the shop in a Bow Case . I would think that an archery shop would be a good bet to pick up a box .

My wife will kill me if I miss...lol that was my excuse for "needing" a new oneSent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

Eddie, when I first got mine about 5 years ago I was worried I was over my head. It's simple as could be. I shovel around mine and use year round. Everything seems to be smoked at 200-225. If you smoke a little too long it's no big deal. I've never found I've over smoked anything. I've been using fruit woods as IMO hickory and mesquite are TOO smoky for my taste. Some although may prefer. Smoked almonds: sauté raw almonds in butter and your favorite dry rub. Throw in metal colindar or make an aluminum pouch . Beer can chicken: can brine but don't have to. Rub mayo on outside (it's basically fat) and dry rub, throw some butter pats under skin, insert beercan Pork shoulder/butt : light coat of mustard, dry rub , smoke for about 3 -4 hours, throw in crockpot on low overnight , no pulling required Wings: melt stick of butter, shake wings in bag or Tupperware, dry rub if wanted ,smoke and finish on grill for a minute or under broiler to crisp up Venison: Cut steaks into bite sized pieces: dash of dry rub, dab of jalapeno cream cheese ,slice of water chestnut if you'd like, wrap in 1/3 piece of bacon look up bacon explosions where you make a bacon lattice and stuff contents inside Smoked trout for trout BLT's before on thick sourdough Wild turkey breasts (none going on for me this year sadly) marinate with bottle of Italian dressing and good douse of OJ, dry rub if wanted, toothpick bacon around to cover It's endless and easy. It's easy. Need beer to smoke however. Neighbors and postman are always seeming to time it right and get tastes of whatever I've got on. I like rubs with coffee and the sweet and hot made for wild game Try some of these ideas. I think you'll find it simplistic

Pork stuffed onions!2lbs ground pork 3 gloves garlic 2 onions chopped 3'4 cup bread crumbs 2 eggs.mix like a meat loaf and fill onions wrap with bacon and cook for twenty/20 minutes

Ha- looks like the gaurd dog is OFF DUTY! Hopefully any "would be" intruders will trip over him and drop the valuables!

I have a friend that has a neighboring property where the owner lives out of state. Prime deer property. He had people that would randomly park in the field, put tree stands up and occasionally wander on to his own property. He wrote a letter to the owner this past season explaining the situation and how it effected his land and hunting. The owner told him to post the hell out of it and gave him permission to hunt. We went in and pulled the stands and put them in the field to be picked up. Worked out perfect for him. Sometimes all you need to do is extend a hand.

Just came home from seeing Juinor Brown at the Rochester Jazz Fest. Although he's far from Jazz..... His concert was in a bar/concert hall owned by a retired firefighter , so our beer was free , and Junior , tore it up ! Enjoy Garth .

Good deal! Always better to come across as a good guy, instead of a hard azz. Most times it will work out to your favor.

I have a pair of red foxes that come and eat the left over bird seed that falls from the feeder. I hear them barking at all hours of the day and night. The other day our cat and one of them were fighting on our rock wall. They both took off in opposite directions. I guess it was a draw.

Yea really. We have way to much dead weight in the country. They are bleeding us dry

TC and several others are posting their nice mounts from the 2015 season. If you can't beat 'em...

all the light shit today. Corona, Modelo, Miller lite, Coord light, bud light, etc. https://vimeo.com/172340033 https://vimeo.com/172340094 Figured these were better than pics of a cans/bottles of the aforementioned beers. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I am down in Hamburg...have an elite box you can use if you wanna meet somewhere sometime...let me know. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

Defiantly a good buy and good deal! You wont need another bow for 10 years unless the little guy ends up wanting it.

Back from the cabin and the beer was not the best but not the worst I've had. Was cool and refreshing on this beautiful summer weekend. I tried another local brew from Rusted Rail Brewery in Miflinburg,PA. Very good IPA. Some other dead soldiers from the weekend and the venison bratwurst on the smoker we had for lunch Saturday. Venison spidies for dinner Saturday night.

Even in this heat the clover plots seemed to like that last cutting...looking at these you wouldn't think it was so dang dry out there...but the ground is all cracked......This no rain and heat is just killing the new plots...I can hear the $$$ circling the bowl on those. I'm thinking if I can get the dang rocks under control in the lower plots...Alfalfa/ clover will be going in and I'll cut back on the annual plots.....either that or I'll leave the fields bare and plant just fall plots.......They do like the cloves on the finished upper plots...not a single corn seed survived the birds in the swt corn(4" apart,a lot of seed) plot...though the cucurbit are doing well.

Thanks guys. Everything you said is so true. I have 5 neighbors that border me. We all get along great and there has never been a problem. I'm very lucky for sure.

Nice going First-light . Having friendly people on the other side of the property line makes for better hunting / recovery chances .

Nice job. First impressions are so important. I also feel that having your neighbors as friends is the best move you can make. A bad neighbor can make your life hell, but a good one can make it so much easier. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nice. Only thing I know about Omega is I walked into their store at The Westchester Mall once. They handed me free champagne and I asked the price of a watch I liked it and was 27 grand. I had another free glass of champagne and walked out without a watch. LolSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Have fun Red! Wednesday night I took my wife to see Mickey Gilley at the Riveria Theatre in North Tonawanda. He's 80 years old and put on a HELL of a show! We went to Lebro's before the show for some chow, it was a great night!

I was thinking bikini's and a grill. But those pics are cool too.

Easy peasy on the beer. Genesee bock No idea on the watch however

We were on the roof , cut two vent holes and removed some metal over windows on a part of the building that was two stories. It was by looking in there that we saw all the burned plants, I walked over to the Chiefs to tell them rather then put it out over the air. Soon after the dispatcher put it out for everyone to " remain on air, until told otherwise. " lol Luckily a guy who owns a nearby business , did bring us a few dozen donuts .

The sad part is this should.just be handled by a game department and no vote.needed from.politicians on it..

Was drinking Fat tire the other night at a friend's house...deff a nice selection. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

mine from a few years back. Actually that was my most successful season hunting the property. Had tons of does taken and that bad boy. Now I can't seem to shoot jack diddly, and not for lack of deer neither, there's tons on the property! Go figure Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

Nice!!! I'm remodeling my house right now and am converting a couple of rooms into taxidermy studio so I can take in some deer this fall...

Two of the three from last season.
