I went to Geneseo to give it another try . I sat in what my son calls the tunnel stand . There is an 8 foot wide cut we made through the middle of the thickets that looks like a tunnel . It's about 150 yards long . I was in the stand by 12:30 . My oldest son got out of work early and arrived around 2 pm and sat in a stand about 1/2 mile away . I had the wind in my face and the sun in my eyes for a while and didn't see anything . Around 4:15 Matt walked down through the field and into the west side of the woods . He kicked a small doe my way but she was to quick and ran through some thick crap . On our way up the Laneway in the dark , we had a couple fawns running ahead of us . My youngest son said he would go with me Saturday if I wanted to go out . It looks like rain a good part of the day so I think I will pass unless the weather has a big change .

I know it has been posted on here before . There was a thread about being able to use an anterless tag for a buck in a late season hunt . I looked through the regulations Booklet and didn't see it if it's there . Does anyone recall this and know where in the Regs Booklet that it is printed ? Thanks in advance .

Two of my 3 sons hunt . Out of 8 grandsons , only 1 hunts .

There are 3 and sometimes 4 of us hunting my SIL's property . One neighbor hunting his property East of us and 1 or two sometimes hunt on the property West of us . As far as I know , no one is hunting the woods North of us . Not hearing a lot of shooting but my sons and grandson have taken several deer off of my SIL's property this season and previous years .

I have the camo Jet Sled . My oldest son has a black Jet Sled . I also have two of the Orange or Yellow Toboggan sleds in my SIL's woods plus 2 new ones in the rafters in my garage . I had put the two new Toboggan sleds on Craigs List for $30 each and didn't get any takers . They go for almost $50 elsewhere .

Cold Weather Scope Mounting
fasteddie replied to airedale's topic in Guns and Rifles and Discussions
On many scopes there is a dial at the back of the scope to change the Eye Relief . Some of mine do have that . -
Went hunting with my oldest son and Grandson in Geneseo Friday . Sat for 5 hours and saw nothing . Had the wind blowing in my face . Around 4:20 , Matt shot a nice big doe . Blake saw a couple of fawns and never shot . That's it for me until this coming Thursday . I gave Matt one of my anterless permits since I haven't used one . Gotta git'r done ........

We use to get power outages at least 3 times a rear . Glad I bought a whole house generator .

I had just got out of the Marine Corps a couple months earlier and started working at Xerox in Webster . They announced the shooting over the speakers . The whole plant went silent .

It looks like a Deer Mouse . Notice the spike near the trap .......

My oldest son and I plan to do an afternoon hunt in Geneseo today . It's a bit nippy out but you can't shoot them from the computer in the house . -

Congrats to Danny ! That's a Biggie ! -
Sat in a ladder stand today from 6am until 3:30 pm . I had enough for the day . Saw a doe through the woods at 8:30 then another at 9:30 . Couldn't get a shot . My 2 sons and grandson all got a deer . I failed . When I got up to where I was going to park my ATV , I saw about 6 deer run into the cut down bean fields about 400 yards away . Got hold of my son to get hold of my grandson to let him know deer were headed his way . A short time later , bang . He shot a small buck . Almost forgot to mention , it was cold out !

Did you try EBAY ?

It's 36 degrees in Geneseo right now with a NNW wind . The wind direction will pretty much be blowing toward my face .

Thanks . I actually hit where I aimed ...........

Not much of a rack but at 82 years old , I can't be picky . One for the freezer .

Went down to my oldest son's property in Honeoye Falls to give it a try . I was in the blind at 2:30 . About 3:30 , a small racked buck with a decent size body showed up around 20 yards from me . I put the 20 yard dot on him and took the safety off . The safety made a click sound , the deer heard it and looked my way . When it turned it's head I pulled the trigger . This was the 1st time I ever had a shot at any deer with the crossbow . The deer bolted and took off in the direction that it came from . I found my bolt as the shot was a pass through . I couldn't spot any blood . I had called my son and he was on the way home . He told me to wait for him . Matt and Blake ( grandson ) came out and we started looking for blood . Speck here and there . Matt spotted it in the neighbor's woods about 30 yards onto that property . Recovered the deer and Matt should be butchering it right now . I doubt that I would have found the deer without help . Shot the deer on the left side with a Rage Expandable .

I am going to do an afternoon sit on my son's small property in Honeoye Falls . This will wrap up a disappointing bow season for me . -
I have a pair of blaze orange camo pattern trousers that I use to wear . They have a polyester lining . When I would wear them over my trousers , my legs would perspire and my trousers would get damp . Defeated the purpose of wearing them . My son bought a pair of insulated blaze orange camo bibs for me and they are cozy warm .
