NYDeere

Many years ago a friend hit a deer on his way home from work. He threw it in the trunk and drove home. He opened the trunk to show his wife and the deer jumped out and ran away.

I love it.

Lazy

Reading all your notes makes me kind of glad to be old. When I got my pistol permit about 40 years ago I think it took a month start to finish.

Welcome and glad to have another Central New Yorker with us.

Our dog came from Kansas City so we named her "KC". (Pronounced Casey). Easy to say and a nice play on words. Once had a beagle named "Sunday" because we picked her up on a Sunday plus she looked like a butterscotch sundae.

Retired with 43 years. Now I refurbish little green tractors and go hiking everyday. On sunny warm days I go hunting.

Elite Guns is on Rte 11 in North Syracuse down near Geddis bakery area on the other side of the street. They are mostly military guns and have everything under glass. There is a big shop on route 5 just past Camillus near the Carpenters Brook fish hatchery. They have LOTS of nice stuff.

I was hunting in the TugHill area again yesterday. No deer signs; however I did see a green Deere working in a field. Sure was a beautiful fall day to be out and enjoy nature.

No, I did not go out today. I have hunted the northern zone most of my life but just haven't seen any deer up there this season. Kind of discouraged and will wait until southern zone to go out again with my rifle.

Is bow hunting allowed on the island?

I got mine about 30 years ago. 6 weeks from start to finish for my consealed carry. Times have changed.

I am from upstate New York and most of our deer are green up here! How big is Staten Island? I was there once when I got on the wrong boat and wanted to go to the Statue of Liberty.

I like the .270 as well. Very flat shooting rifle without a big recoil.

I will be out there too. We are all meat eaters in my family, the antlers make poor soup.
