There are some crazy people out there !

My sons and I have a spot in Pittsford where we bow hunt . I use another persons stand ( who gun hunts) and he and family use our stands during gun season and we stay out of that property during the gun season . It works out for all of us .

Went to a friend's property on Furnace about 1/2 mile from my house . Sat there for 2 1/2 hours and walked slow 1 1/2 hours and saw nothing . It's a wooded area with dirt bike racing trails and high weeds along the sides . Saw very few tracks . Will probably take the ML to Geneseo Monday .

Video has been around for some time

The guy that made the cut must be a real piece of work !

Maybe he enjoys your Sarcasm .......

Same here . No problem as the blood drains from the mouth . Makes it easier to skin and cut up .

This is what I get when I try the link ........ Sorry, this page isn't available The link you followed may be broken, or the page may have been removed.

New York has had a very low accident rate without having mandatory Blaze Orange . As good or better than Pa's ...

a little white lie ?

They had a blurb on the news about the over abundance of deer in the area . They said the deer population has increased and isn't being controlled effectively . Some Deer Management guy was on there and stated that not enough deer are being taken by hunters and that some of the control was by "road kill" . They showed several shots of deer roaming in lawns and said as suburban sprawl increased the deer had less habitat . No fooling . Deer know where they are safe . I am not seeing deer in the woods during the daylight hours and places where I have gotten several deer pics on camera are not showing up now . Kinda sucks to drive 100 miles round trip and not see deer .

I will wear orange .... just don't make it mandatory

I always wear Blaze Orange during gun season but I would never support having it mandatory .

I am too lazy to make my own marinade . I prefer to buy the McCorrmick package Peppercorn - Garlic and love the stuff . All that is necessary to add to the mix is oil , water and vinegar . Simple , quick and delicious .

Video tape this joker ..........

I wouldn't consider someone gassing up on the way to hunt a slob hunter . My idea of a slob hunter is someone who litters and area , removes posted signs , breaks fences , etc ... How someone smells doesn't fall into that category . Just an opinion .

It's a choice . I heard of a guy who wore his work clothes hunting and smelled like diesel fuel . He killed deer . Smelling like that was his prerogative and he scored while hunting . I don't want all that stink on me ..... be it gas , oil , bacon grease , etc ..

The Original Post looks to me like a stir the pot post . Go ahead and gas your car up on your way to your hunting spot . Nothing is stopping you so what's your problem ! My preference is to gas up the night before and if I did have to get gas in the am , I would put on a pair (or at least one) of the vinyl gloves . I dress with minimal hunting clothes on the way and have my hunting clothes in a tote or scentproof bag . Do I care if others do this ? Hell no ! For me , the less scent , the better . I used to smoke and shot deer while doing so . The deer have evolved and have gotten smarter . I stopped at Fastrack to get gas a few days ago . The damned hose leaked right where it swivels . Got gas all over my hands and on my boots . I went in and told the clerk that the hose was screwed up . Went to the john and washed my hands and could still smell the gas on them . Some hunters care about being scent free but that doesn't make them an elitist ! Take whatever stink you want to the woods when you hunt .........

We stop at different restaurants on some Saturday am's as well as on Sunday after Mass . When you walk out of the restaurants and get in the car , you can smell grease . That's why I NEVER eat at any restaurant when hunting .

Nice job .... congrats !

I am going to have to put up one of those signs at my sister in law's property .........

After mass this am , we headed for Gus's Restaurant in Williamson . Saw a couple vehicles parked on the north side of the road and commented to the wife that they must be hunters . About 150 yards farther 2 doe jumped the cement median and headed for the cat tails . I slowed down as did the car ahead of me . Another doe jumped the median , fell down and slid . She got up and ran into the cat tails also . The funny part was that they crossed close to the deer crossing sign !

I was at mine today and the roof had caved in and two of the fiberglass rods had popped out of the retainers . The blind is fastened to a platform . I went to Walmart and purchased an extendable golf ball retriever , cut off part of the round end and used it to prop up the roof after I left the blind . Hopefully , it should keep the roof up on the blind .

Well , another wasted day in Geneseo . I got to the property at 6:30 and went down to my pod blind . The roof had caved in but the sides were fine . I popped it back up and then realized the fiberglass supports on 2 corners had come out so i pulled the ceiling back down , inserted the fiberglass ends and put it back up . Had a red fox trot on the trail about 20 yards away at 9 am . . Tried doing a squeak to get him to stop for a picture but he scooted off . Heard maybe 4 shots all morning but never saw anything . Around 11:30 I headed for my car to make a trip to Walmart where I purchased a golf ball retriever that extends . Got a cup of coffee to go with my sandwich as I had made a thermos of coffee but failed to put it in the car .....dumb , dumb ! I cut off part of the round end of the golf ball retriever and headed back to the pod blind . Nothing all afternoon .... nothing on the trail cam except a couple of trespassers . Closed up the windows at 4:15 and set the golf ball retriever against the block at the roof peek to keep it from collapsing again . If it works , it was only a $13 fix . I heard 2 way off shots south of me in the afternoon . Geneseo had always been good for me for getting deer . This year it has really sucked !

Well , I got plenty of ideas and responses . I checked over various phones and got the Samsung Galaxy S5 . My wife has an I Phone and is considering getting the Samsung Galaxy S5 also . I could have gotten it free but would have had to go with a 2 year contract . Paid $49 with the EDGE plan and there is no contract to be locked into . Also paid $30 Tech Armor Glass to protect the screen . It has so much more than my little Samsung Dumb Phone .
