Pretty quiet here in Pittsford. Mendon except for the vehicles hauling butt on the nearby highway . Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

I will be heading out to my Pittsford - Mendon spot in a few minutes . Trying to be optimistic . Havn't been there in a couple weeks to check anything out but the beans and corn are gone . It's only a 35 mile drive . The only thing I don't like about the spot is the uppity soccer moms blow their horns when they go by when they see me in camo .

Congrats to your brother . Great looking deer !

Put the damn camera away !

I have the Alpaca insoles also but haven't cut them to size. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

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 .

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 .

Welcome to Hunting NY

Worst case , it would only cost $10 .

Fletch -- Does that puppy have a collar on it ? j/k .

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 .

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 .

On page 29 of the Regs booklet , it says they will be available"on or around Nov 1" .

Break open single shots . My deer rifle is a NEF single shot 25-06 .

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 .

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 .

Spear Season falls between December 31 and January 1 .........

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 .

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

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

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
