  1. I have the Alpaca insoles also but haven't cut them to size. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk
  2. My wife gave me a pair if Alpaca socks last Christmas . I will have to give them a try during gun season if I can remember where I put them . They are supposed to be warm .
  3. WalMart has a small device similar to a Tick Key that extracts ticks quite safely for about $4 . DICKs has the Tick Key for $6 or $7 . Either place is cheaper than Amazon .
  4. Worst case , it would only cost $10 .
  5. Fletch -- Does that puppy have a collar on it ? j/k .
  6. A rather ridiculous statement . Long Bow and Recurve shooters were taking deer at farther distances yhan 25 yards before compounds came about . Not many shoot the longbow or recurve any more because it is so much more difficult to do than with what is available now .
  7. I have the heated Milwaukee camo jacket . I wear a Blaze Orange vest over it during gun season . The battery doesn't last long so I have 3 of them and they are about $35 each . If you turn on the pocket warmers , that really sucks up some juice . Probably better off buying WOOL clothing and dressing in layers .
  8. On page 29 of the Regs booklet , it says they will be available"on or around Nov 1" .
  9. Break open single shots . My deer rifle is a NEF single shot 25-06 .
  10. Gave Geneseo another try yesterday . Rain was forecasted but I was prepared . Was in my stand in the woods by 6:45 . Sat there until 11:30 . I was facing the thick area where I expected the deer to come into the woods . I was downwind of that area . During that sit I saw 4 anterless and a small buck moving in the thickets but them never came my way . It sprinkled a couple times but only for a few minutes . At 11:30 I headed for my car and went to Geneseo village . Ran a couple errands and went back to the property on Lima Road . Drove my ATV across the field and parked it about 100 yards from the stand I have in a willow tree overlooking a small wooded area with cattails near a pond . Not much was happening . After a while I looked in the direction of my ATV and saw a doe standing within 10 yards of the ATV . She stayed there for over 10 minutes and then headed at an angle toward my position . I stood and faced the tree I was in and the doe passed within 30 yards but I couldn't take a shot as the safety strap on my harness restricted me . I tried to un hook it but couldn't . Another letdown . Left the stand at 6:05 . Saw a red fox on the way out .
  11. The 1st pair of Rocky's I had were the Corn Stalkers . They were comfortable and lasted a long time . I wore them wood chuck hunting and deer hunting and they got a good workout . Most boots / shoes are made overseas and don't last worth a darn . No quality anymore .
  12. Spear Season falls between December 31 and January 1 .........
  13. The doe by my ATV came my way at an angle . She was within 30 yards of me and I couldn't draw due to the safety strap on my harness . If I had the strap around the tree lower I might have gotten a shot but if I did that and fell , it would be a longer drop and one heck of a jolt . She stood within 10 yards of the ATV for about 10 minutes .... probably wondering where the driver was .
  14. I parked my atv 100 yards away on edge of field hoping any deer that see it would take a detour and come by where I am at. A doe stood 10 yards from the atv and stared at it. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk
  15. A short time ago a fat reddish colored squirrel climbed up a tree trunk next to me if it hadn't been for the tail I might have mistaken it for a wood chuck. Lol Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk
  16. Saw 4 doe and I buck 50 yards in thick stuff and upwind of me . Never came any closer. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk
  17. Congratulations Moog. Great looking deer. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk
  18. Someone posted this some time ago. Still funny . Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk
  19. Almost 830 and nothing but squirrels so far in Geneseo . Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk
  20. I did respond in this thread .... Thank you for the sarcasm ......
  21. I believe the choice on top -- Full Inclusion was way ahead . I bought a cross bow on a whim . I will give it a try . But .... I am not for Full Inclusion . I don't fight it , nor do I support it . Maybe when I get old and decrepit I might change my mind but I am only 75 .
