Larry --- You did good by firing him .

Same here . I didn't live to be 73 by being stupid .

I have 7 days to report it . It may take that long ......

I don't believe so . I think it's the luck of the draw .

If it works , don't fix it !

I thought I would try doing the on-line reporting but didn't like the idea of leaving my driver's licence # and some of the other required info . After calling and listening to a bunch of worthless info , I was informed that the reporting was closed at 4:30 pm . I had tried at 8 pm . It used to be very simple to do . Looks like they fixed something that used to work .

Now , that's funny !

Found this ----- Q: Can a junior hunter continue to hunt during the special youth deer season after they have taken a deer with a firearm? A: If the junior hunter also holds a Bowhunting license, they can continue to hunt with a bow pursuant to the Bowhunting license.

On page 38 of the Regs Booklet , it looks rather confusing . It states that during the 3 day special .... Junior hunters (ages 14-15) will be eligible to take one deer of either sex with a firearm during this season and may use a Deer Management Permit , Deer Management Assistance Program tag or a regular season tag .

Then there must be heck of a lot of coyote food out there !

It's you . It was a 4 legged doe . I didn't drag it out into the field for a photo opportunity .

Saw 4 doe and 2 bucks this am in Pittsford - Mendon this am . There is one less doe now . Got her at about 20 yards . All I have to do now is clean up the meat , do some grinding and packaging . By clean up the meat I mean cutting away the fat , silver , etc ..

I only ever had a buck come to a decoy once . I was told to have the doe decoy facing away as a buck would approach the doe from the back . Apparently the buck didn't read the same report and approached from the front facing me . One of my sister in law's horses ran up to the fence , whinnied and the buck ran off . I couldn't get him to come back .

Shoved off for the Pittsford - Mendon area at 5 am . Was in the stand by 6 am after cutting a few weeds and some low hanging branches . Just before 8 am I saw some deer way across the field . There were 4 anterless and a few minutes later I saw a deer with a small rack . The buck went into the gulley but the does with fawns eased along the edge of the field heading my way . I was in a box blind that I had gotten a few deer out of over the years . As they got closer I stood up and held my bow out over the rail ( learned from a previous mistake to do this ) . Drew back , leaned and let go . Got one of the doe at about 20 yards . I thought they were going to turn into the thick stuff a couple times and didn't want to take a chance on no shot . At least there is one tag that I won't be eating this year !

42 years ago I was 31 .........

8F and 8H

That's funny Bob !

Happy Birthday Belo !

Big mistake going out today . It was calm early this am but the wind picked up later on . A small amount of rain that didn't matter . Saw absolutely nothing . Finally said to heck with it . Should have stayed home today . To top it off , I shot a practice arrow and couldn't find it . I'll look for it again another day . When I woke up at 3:45 this am I had the sweats , A piercing headache and and upset stomach . Took a while for things to settle down but I still had the sweats until about 8:30 am . I was in the stand by 6:30 .

I zip tie the tag to an ear , tuck it inside and zip tie the ear closed to I don't lose it . I put the tag with the meat in the freezer .

I scrapped all of mine had them going back to 1965 . They were just taking up space .

Heading for Geneseo again . Rain forecasted several times today but ya gotta do what ya gotta do . It is expected to be windy with 10- 14 mph winds a good part of the day from the SW and then West . My Pod Blind is on the West side of the property but not movable so it's not a good spot due to wind direction . Hopefully a dumb deer might come in ...........

Awesome deer .... Congrats !

Congrats ..... I know many bow hunters , myself included , that aren't seeing much deer and havn't gotten a shot yet .

You can make Jerky out of ground . All you need is a Jerkey Shooter . It looks like a caulking gun . http://www.gandermountain.com/modperl/product/details.cgi?i=401089 http://www.webstaurantstore.com/weston-37-0211-w-1-lb-jerky-gun-jr/9430211W.html?utm_source=Google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=GoogleShopping&gclid=CjwKEAjwns6hBRDTpb_jkbTv1UYSJACBhber3ARLghnznvh3oY-3Wa66qQIoqR8tqtGUFK3xLRtRMxoCBGjw_wcB
