  1. It wasn't my stand and it was on another person's property . I know it has been there for at least 3 years when I first saw it . A couple of new guys are hunting that area and wanted to hunt my SILs property also . She said NO . We had a thread about taking down someone's stand and leaving a note so I wonder if that is what these guys did . Because of the plastic bag on the support bar , I didn't think it had fallen and thought a note had been left . If that's the case , it appears that they did the right thing .
  2. Walked my sister in laws property yesterday to see how wet the woods might be as it doesn't drain well . Saw a double treestand laying on the ground across the ditch from my SILs property . Some new guys are hunting there this coming year . It looks like it might have been removed and a note left with it .
  3. There are certainly some shooters in that crowd in OPs post .
  4. Nuttin ! Don't need anything . Too much gear as it is .......
  5. I checked 3 trail cams . One was mostly a guy with a Bush Hog making trails through a pond field and no deer on the card . Another had a spike posing for the camera . Realized when I got home that the date had reverted back to January 2010 . On the third was a nice buck . I was there last Thursday but since I visited my sister I checked the cams and walked the woods to see if they had dried up . Only saw one doe while walking . There was a snail on one camera lens and when I took the cover off of the Moultrie Lock Box , there was a toad sitting on top of the camera and it startled me . It was pretty funny .
  6. I am in Wayne County and my son is in Monroe County. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk
  7. Does anyone do this with a relative ? I was told at a gun shop that I could fill out a form to have my son , who has a pistol permit , as a dual owner . The advantage of this is ..... if something happens to me , the dual owner would automatically become the sole owner and the government wouldn't get the pistols .
  8. Good point Doc . I have accumulated a few "junk cameras" over the years . Tried to replace some of the internal batteries but they are soldered into to camera guts . I was liking the Primos CR Truth Cams but had 2 infested with ants . Easy to take apart . Cleaned out the webs , whatever and used the compressor to blow out the internals . Still couldn't get the cameras to turn on . Cheap Wildgame cameras may be the way to go but they don't take multi-shots . What I see on the cameras during the summer changes by fall as crops are harvested and the Deer movement changes .
  9. Not a problem . I carry my hunting clothes in a sealed tote and put them on when I get to the place I am going to hunt .
  10. I would think that a crossbow would be more effective than a compound . Easier to tweak the sight (scope) . Faster than a compound ... Stryker is 405 fps . Can be shot from a rest . Cocked until the trigger is pulled . Easy enough whereby a novice can shoot bullseyes in no time . What's with the "follow up shot" ? With the accuracy of a crossbow , it shouldn't be necessary .
  11. From my friend's TC in Walworth ........ some bucks aren't camera shy
  12. I have one on my pack and a copy on my back in blaze orange holders I also put the deer tag on the ear with a zip tie and then another zip tie around the ear to make sure it stays in ....
  13. Wait until it looks down the barrel and pull the trigger .
  14. My son hasn't put out a trail cam but ..... there is a spot in Mendon where he has seen 12 bucks during a sitting in the evening . He has crop damage permits and the bucks are out but the does have been coming out too late . I know they can be shot up until 11 pm but we have never shot them in the dark hours .
  15. The thread is gone and the phoney account is also gone . If the person who created the account does it again , he will be GONE !

  17. They have been logging almost a mile south of my friends and a couple houses were built back off the road about 1/2 mile south of the property . I am wondering if this is causing the deer to travel my friends property more frequently . Any thought on this ?
  18. I call our bathroom "the Jim" . When I tell people that I go to the Jim quite often , they are impressed !
  19. Your deer are probably on Wooly's camera ............
  20. Do some research on the adaptors and check out the reviews . Some are not compatable with various phones . The adaptors aren't that big / bulky . Here is mine with a SD card next to it .
  21. Pretty vague ..... no mention as to how far from the road a person has to be . Question: How far off the highway must I be before I can discharge my firearm, crossbow or longbow? Answer: The Environmental Conservation Law prohibits you from discharging the firearm, crossbow or longbow in such a manner that the arrow, bolt, bullet or load of shot passes over any portion of the highway, which may include maintained portions including the shoulder, drainage ditches, etc.
