My son and I went to his friend's property on Cambier Road in Palmyra yesterday . It was dark at 5:30 but lightened up fast . I sat in a stand that I set up last year and never liked the location . My oldest son sat in his brother's stand in the woods . We sat until almost 11 . I never saw a thing and had pretty good visibility . My son saw a small buck and took a shot with no luck . We took down my stand and the double stand that someone had taken the bottom section from . Matt brought a section from another stand so we could do this . No sense in repairing this stand only to have someone mess it up again . We plan to go to Geneseo Saturday and hunt the morning and then attempt to finish cutting up a fallen tree that was blocking the laneway a couple months ago . Hopefully we will take the two stands and set them up on the property .

Cool it with the Personal Attacks on members !

Many , many years ago

Obama has already put out a recall on those phones !

I let my son shoot the Decocking Bolt today . He shoy at a spot 10 yards away while on the ground and it skipped across the ground and went about 60 yards . OOPS !

Oh , that's great for you but what about the people in the office sitting on old orange crates !

Happy Birthday fellow Marines ...... Semper Fi !

It comes with a bolt and a Thumper Head on it plus two thumper heads that you can put on a bolt .

Corn is still up l on this property. Lots of corn . Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

Fletch - Are we going to get a deer during bow season this year ?

I don't like the idea of getting down from the stand with the bow cocked while lowering it . I decided to take a practice arrow along and take a test shot before getting down from the ladder stand . The problem is ... the X-bow will bury the arrow if it's too close . The discharge bag sounds like a good idea but I carry enough excess junk in the car as it is .......

I bought a Golf Ball Retriever at WalMart and cut the top part of the Circular thing off . The retriever is adjustable and holds the roof up quite well . It was a $13 investment to save $100 .

The "Hub" blinds are the way to go . Quite roomy . You also need a chair . Problem with chair is if you are on soft ground the legs will sink and be uneven . I left one out for 2 years and it was trashed by the weather . I replaced it with a new one and tried to shoot an arrow out of it . This was from an elevated platform . The new blind was different and the bottoms of the windows were higher . I would have to stand up to shoot . The Ameristep Dog House blinds are fine for gun / crossbow and also need a chair . These are the springy ones that fold up into a round backpack . They are worthless for shooting a bow out of them . I am only 5'8" with a 28" draw and the aren't big enough drawing a bow from . These blinds aren't sturdy enough to leave out for any length of time .

Was in my stand in Pittsford just before 2 pm .. It was cold and windy . I put out my cardboard decoy and a Rur Rageous scent stick . Didn't see anything until around 4 pm . Saw movement directly south of me but it was , you guessed it , Mama's Special Boy .He was walking around and smoking . I was hoping he would kick something out of the thick area .He finally walked off . I was getting my gear together around 4:45 and looked up the field . A spike was about 250 yards away heading my way . All I could think of was Go Away . I didn't want to shoot a spike . he got within 70 yardsstepped out of the wwod3ed area and was trying to get close to the deer but the spike bounded off and was looking at my decoy when he suddenly looked back . Mama's Boy stepped out of the wooded area and tried to approach the deer but it bounded off . The guy left and I got down after shooting a practice arrow into the soft ground 30 yards away . Wow ! It got dark fast !

Mama's Boy showed up a couple minutes ago. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

They should wait until January before indicting her / them .........

Since she lost I wonder if Bernie will have to give back the house that she allegedly bought for him ........

The People have spoken !

I plan to give the Pittsford stand another try this afternoon . I hope "Mama's Boy" isn't out there wandering around again . A NW wind is forecasted so if I put out a Scent Stick , if should blow toward the thick stuff .

I doubt if any of those BS'ers will leave . Remember when Alex Baldwin and others said they would leave if Bush won . Just another Hollywood liar ! Many folks said they would move to canada if Trump won . Why not Mexico ?

Well said , Doc .
