  1. Thanks for the input. The property is just a mile or so north west of the north west side of cannonsville reservoir. It borders barbours state forest if that means anything to anyone.
  2. Anyone hunt in or around walton? A friend has some land and asked if id be interested in buing some of the property off of him. Never hunted there, but have seen some of his trail camera pictures. They have a few nice ones a year on camera, but dont seem to kill many each year. I have never hunted his land, but he is looking to sell 40 acres with a cabin, electric, well, and septic all in great condition. I dont want to share the price, as its very very low compared to all the covid inflated pricing. Just wondering what anyone with experience in the area has to say about the area.
  3. Never thought I’d see snow on opening morning. This wind needs to slow down some.
  4. Running late. Never thought I’d be wearing ski clothes under my camo to stay warm on spring gobbler opener
  5. I can avoid that. Depending how big of guys we have.... Once the boat gets put in we can plan a little GTG. Its my fathers boat but im allowed to use it whenever so lets make the plan
  6. Depends what you call good. I can get the boat from point a to point b and back to the dock no problem. Finding the fish on the other hand is a whole different story.
  7. I know that spot. I keep m boat in portchester and am there all the time. We gotta get out one day. Maybe trade some of those cubans for a trip on the boat
  8. Good on you. Im sure that your mother will never forge this. I can recommend anything but working in Manhattan I can answer the protocol questions; Most people are wearing masks on the streets, but no one is yelling at people for not. Also, would totally make reservations for anything dining related, to avoid any hassles.
  9. Anyone ever fished ten mile in Dutchess? Hopefully heading there Saturday morning and just trying to see what the waters are like?
  10. Beautiful deer. Where abouts in green co are you located (roughly)
  11. Rules aren't meant to be broken, but are surely meant to be bent from time to time. You cant tell me ou have never driven over the speed limit. The issue is when multiple people don't take a warning and continue o do the same thing like what happened. That's just a D**K move.
  12. Just got back. Beautiful property surrounded by a state forest. I know if you own property bordering dep/dec land they will offer you fair marked value for any land you are willing to sell them. Would the state offer the same? Only reason I know is our current camp we sold 10 acres to dep and they actually offered us the same money per acre as the bought the 20 acre lot behind us for.
  13. Id love a place like this, but between working 60 hours a week and my brother having a new born, we would be lucky to get there 3 times a year in the non hunting season if we had to drive that far.
  14. We need a place within 2hrs of home, to justify owning it. And that means 2hours from nyc, so finding anything is tough in the areas we've been looking. I can handle most all of the construction with myself and a few of my employees, so basically my only out of pocket costs will be materials.
  15. Exactly. Well would 1000% be the first order of business. I almost worry that the fact we are on a hill may mean it would need to be even deeper, but who knows? And as far as cabin work, id be doing it all myself. Just nice to start with a roof over your head so we can sleep a night while working
  16. The road leading up to it is a town maintained road. Actually full of beautiful top dollar homes. The meter is in place, looks like maybe they had an rv there before they put this up? As for land in the area, its anywhere from 5-10k an acre in the surrounding town, and even higher in the county just based off Zillow adds. I own a small skid steer so I guess if the access is a pain I could just leave that there for the winter and trailer my snowmobile with me when it snows?
  17. Based on what im seeing online, the cabin is less than 500' from the paved road. The cabin is however at the highest point of the property, so I guess we will see sunday how bad access is
  18. It was listed originally in 2019 for like 299 and is down to just under 200 now. Id be tempted to check with the town, but if they aren't aware, I don't think id want to alert them to anything.
  19. Im going this Sunday to look at a few pieces of property with my father. The one place we really like has been for sale for a long time, and for some reason it raises a red flag to me. Its 56 acres, at the end of a dead end road, and borders a state forest. It is on the top of a mountain, but has a cabin with electric. There is no well or septic, but again it does have electric ran to the small cabin. Just wondering if anyone has any insight on why it may still be available? Is it just undesirable, or cud there be some hidden legal issues id be responsible for regarding a cabin that probably was built with out a permit? https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/325-Mercer-Mtn_Canaan_NY_12029_M32803-02164
  20. They own Constant Quest, formerly known as Thorofare Outfitters. I have one point, but he has said the odds of drawing a bow lottery are worth applying when I buy my point this year. hey are located in unit 60 I believe. I have nothing set in stone now, but if I were to draw one this year, I could show up the following morning for a hunt.
  21. Ill be doing a trip to Wyoming this year for an elk. Friend of mine just bought a guide business out there 2 years ago, and has produced some great success.
  22. Anyone know of any public land spots where I may be able to find some successful small game hunting opportunities? Would love to see a pheasant, but would settle for a few rabbits. Preferably Putnam county, but wouldn't mind driving up into dutchess either. Thanks
  23. Was it troopers, county, or just local PD? If a local town PD, what town were you in? This can change what the best route is.
