I've never seen a cook book with an antler recipe. I hunt for the meat, not some huge rack that'll collect dust on a wall, or end up in some box in the garage, like my brother does with the many trophy bucks he's killed over the years in his travels. He gets the meat processed and gives it to needy families we know, so I don't give him shit about killing for a trophy rack. My family and I have been hunting in NY state for a long time. I'm 5th generation and have been hunting deer in NY for 40 years myself. I remember the stories told to me from my uncles and grandfathers about times when seeing any buck was a cause to celebrate, as deer were overhunted and very scarce. NY has come a long way from those days. Last year was the only year that I didn't harvest a deer and it wasn't because I didn't have the opportunity. I had enough stag meat left over from a cull hunt on a friends preserve that I help protect from predators. As you know, If you want to hunt trophy deer, there's plenty of states with the agricultural lands that'll support a bucks nutritional needs to grow that big. NY state used to have the agricultural farms to support a big deer herd, but those farms have been sold by the younger generations and turned into subdivisions or have gone back to the woods they once were, which won't support as many deer as the land used to. To me , NY's human population growth and lack of farm land upstate for deer to live on is the cause for the "supposed" deer population issue, not the length of the hunting seasons or implements being used.

How do we have over 22,000 guns laws and the NY SAFE act ? Billions of dollars allocated, Total immunity, Emergency laws passed, Waters tested and limit's pushed on the masses. Any means necessary. No further further explanation should be required.

Did you get to check zero on the thermal ? Check mount, base and other attachment points ?

The end game by the party of Unity and total transparency, is total control of everything and by any means necessary, even if they have to sacrifice their own to get to that end game. It's called socialism.

All sanity is put aside, if the end goal is deemed a supposed benefit for the Chillllldrrrrreeen, Common good of society and the Planet. As long as the caring imbeciles feel and look politically correct now, who cares about the future ecological disaster when all of the batteries that power these vehicles need to be disposed of. Not to mention the harsh mining processes that are being used to extract them from Mother Natures Womb. Looks like a Win for everyone.

If deer are running by the standers during a drive, it's not being done correctly. I've shot more deer being a driver than a stander, So if your out with a new group, volunteer to be a driver.

Just to be clear left filed/Fauci, in this attached article, are we to believe the Expert person that's advising America and also contradictions himself multiple times about who funded or was responsible for the gain of function research to weaponize the Covid virus ? I mean, if Alec baldwin can kill a person with a firearm that he didn't pull the trigger on while he was holding it, I guess we can also believe that Fauci didn't fund the research to weaponize Covid ? Lying Scum Fauci

You don't remember the 3rd, 4th or 50th strain of polio and all of the booster shots they mandated soon after ? More proof of the Gov't taking advantage of the brain dead liberal slaves to line their pockets with money and wield their power over the minions..

Writes the critic that still believes whatever the proved Lying media tells him. You spout drivel with some of your "proof", yet turn your nose up to others "proof" as fictional and then insult the other person with more condescending drivel and insults. You don't need to hide behind the left field monikor Dr Fauci !

I would advise you not to wear deer antlers on your head while out in the woods !

Got my buck opening day, while I was walking to my starting point on the first deer drive of the season. I've been hunting and deer driving with the same crew of guys + gals for almost 40 years. We wear blaze orange and have radios. New hunters shadow seasoned hunters. With the lack of hunting pressure, if you want to see deer, you need to push them around, especially the bucks that wait until dark to move around.

Got a medium sized female yote Sunday, just after sundown. It was snowing/hailing and the cover was thick. By far the worst hunting conditions I've hunted in this year. The Thermion XG50 and FP X24 call both get a thumbs up. The coyote have been harassed by deer hunters and were sticking to heavy cover, even at night. I managed to call two or three in and connected with one of them. Saw some targets in the far background after the shot, but couldn't tell what they were, so I didn't pull the trigger. https://youtu.be/dX66z8oNGD8

On a nice day I would agree, but a pop up blind offers scent control, conceals movement and will keep you dry + out of the elements if the weather changes.

By ring style pop up, I mean this doghouse type blind that folds up like this. Blind fold up The two thing's I don't like about the ring style blind's, is that you need to insert the top poles to keep the roof supported and they weigh a lot because of the steel rings. No need to install top poles with the hub style and the carbon fiber hub and frame are very lightweight. The lightest ring style blind is still almost 3 pounds heavier than my hub style blind. When I'm out in the field, I always have a thermal monocular on hand and scan every couple of minutes. I usually see them way before their in a position to see me, even when their downwind. Blind, ladder or nose bleed height climber stand, I've been out many days when a deer isn't seen or spotted. Just the law of averages.

I've been hunting with the ring style blinds for awhile now and just bought my first hub style blind, the khampa ranger 3000, as it weighs less than 9 pounds. Took me awhile to figure how to set it up without making a lot of noise. It's still not as easy for me to set up and break down as the ring style blinds, but it weighs a lot less and I'm sure it'll break in over time. I've set up blinds the morning of hunting new land and have had deer walk right up to it, but I always treat my blinds with a UV killer, as there have been studies that found the water resistance coatings some manufacturers use makes them stick out to animals that see in a certain light spectrum. Never had an issue after using UV killer.

Stop mixing up southpaws with leftist slaves !

Don't get Anti vaxxer's mixed up with Anti mandate's. We're not leftists, we don't get irritated if someone chooses to do something to themselves that we don't agree with. I find it a little concerning that you would inject whatever it is their selling you into your arms to spite someone. Since big pharma has no liability and people are lining up for the common good, their just happy to collect the checks and hope their salesman can talk the dupes that soon the vaccine is going to be approved for their pets. More Money, More Money.

It's sad that the party of tolerance, breeds the most intolerant. This is a good life lesson for Kyle and I hope he thinks twice about any further decisions of putting himself in harms way to protect someone else's property. Protecting another persons life is worth the fallout, but to drag your family + yourself through a trial and killing two people( I know they were scum), isn't worth the soil he spilled blood on. Innocent or guilty, He's scarred for life and on the black list forever. Not a good way to start your life, but he made his bed.

Morning, their going from food to cover. Evening, their going from cover to food. Throw all that out the window when a hot doe is around. If their not pressured, get in between their food source and cover, not in the cover or food source. If the deer aren't moving around, it's a great time to try and perfect your still hunting skills. Good luck and God bless.

Speak for yourself, As I don't shop at Wallmart, Amazon or any other place that supports your masters and puts local shops out of business. There's no way to not buy something made in or that has parts made in China, but I do my best to limit buying those items. It irks me that my and my businesses tax dollars are being used by the liberals to support China and their cronies with foreign aid, even the countries that have sworn death to America.

Not to mention the slave labor used to make them too ! But that's OK, because it's slaves working to combat climate change and it's for the common good.

You wrote that politicians don't steal much from the Taxpayers. I guess hundreds of millions (probably way more) of tax payer dollar funded family deals on both sides of the aisle isn't much now a days ? It's not just a few bad apple's, it's a perk for all, for their service being in charge of the little tax paying people. Such as the perk of congresses "overlooked" insider trading. Not to pick on Nancy, but her family seems to be making a huge profit during her time in office. Not that they need the money, but the price of designer ice cream is skyrocketing ! https://fortune.com/2021/07/08/house-speaker-nancy-pelosi-husband-paul-big-tech-stocks/ In the end , Georgians will benefit from Remington's move and upstate NY'ers will suffer even more.

???? So the bloated Gov't contracts (paid for by our Tax's, I/E Taxpayers) that they approve for their friends + family members and get a kick back on, isn't stealing from the tax payers ? The wheels don't need to be greased, when your in charge of the wheel greasing operation !
