    Hello

    Welcome to Hunting NY .............
  2. Checked out the cam today and saw these pics
  3. My sister in law bought 69 acres several years ago . It took a few years for people to know that it wasn't open hunting on the land anymore . She wasn't afraid to tell anyone that her property was posted and that they were Tresspassing . Bubba hit the nail on the head ...... your troubles have just begun but in the end it will be worth the effort .
  4. Wow , the Jersey Giants only lost by 21 points ........
  5. No problem with my wife . Her dad got me started with deer hunting .
  6. The only hunting show I enjoyed in the past couple years is the one with those clowns in New England that were shooting Urban Deer . It wasn't the plain old canned hunt show . They messed around with each other like some guys would do at camp .
  7. I can move my flag from half mast now ! The Bills were doing well the 1st half and it looked like they were going to piss away the game .......... I still don't understand the Ref picking up the flag that was thrown for offensive holding but it was a rallying point for the Bills ! Same thing on a bad Pass interference call on the Bills . Chicago is Obama's home town and I bet he had something to do with those calls !
  8. I havn't watched a hunting show in at least a year and that was the 1st in a long time . Too many commercials selling deer bait , etc .. You watched the kill and the guy has to explain what you just saw . Why ? I saw it ! And ..... of course the hunter continues to whisper after the deer is down . It's a rarity to see a guy shoot a doe on one of these shows . The hunter is tracking the deer he shot and all of a sudden he screams "there he is" but the camera man is on the other side of the deer taping as the hunter makes the find . Give me a break !
  9. The one I installed doesn't have the fiberglass rods . It has double metal rods for support . I put a tarp on the floor and I have a section of 5'X5' carpet rolled up that I will unroll when I get into the stand . I bolted a wooden strip across the back legs and front legs so the legs wouldn't punch through and the chair can slide . I will probably use it for an afternoon stand as I would probably spook anything on the way to the stand in the morning darkness .
  10. Hopefully what I opened up will give me a shot during bow season . It would probably be better during gun season when some of that crap gets knocked down .
  11. Get a couple of reloading books ..... Lyman has some good ones . Read them thoroughly before starting . When you reload , you want quiet and no distractions .
  12. Not to add insult to injury but it sure looks like Carnage ...... Hope you get it fixed or replaced soon .
  13. At least the Bills are a New York Team unlike the Jersey Jets and Jersey Giants .................
  14. Maybe the deer wanted to see how good of a archer you are ...........
  15. My wife bought a 6' high platform stand with a hub blind for Christmas . I put the platform up over a month ago on the bank of a pond . Went to Geneseo today and installed the Hub Blind . Luckily I had my Thermacell with me . What a pain it was to open the blind up top side . I bough a blade for my weed trimmer and cut down some of the high weeds . They were about 5' high . Drove the ATV around a few times to knock down some of the weeds and then cut them also . I hope it turns out to be worth the effort .
  16. I would think that it would be hell on arrow shafts .
  17. I started doing some reloading a few years ago . Initially it is pricy to get started but worth the effort . Reloading equipment isn't cheap but it allows you to tweak your loads for individual calibers . A few years ago , it cost me $30+ for 20 rounds of 25-06 . I can reload for much less . Some people start out with a Turret press which isn't necessary unless you plan to mass produce your ammo . Myself , I deprime and size the brass and put it in a vibrator tumbler . Then I clean out the primer pocket and chamfer the other end . Prime the brass in another step , weigh the powder and pour it in the case . When I get 50 brass ready I load the bullet . Sometimes it's hard to get primers , powder or bullets . You don't see brass laying around at the range anymore so you make sure you save every bit that you have . Reloading is a commitment ..............There was a thread started on here several months ago . I am too lazy to look it up .
  18. Trying it out ............. made sure I wore a helmet in case of a crash
  19. Thanks for the Happy Birthday wishes . Getting old sucks but ......... it sure beats the alternative . My wife supports my hunting but just the other day she asked how many more years I would continue to keep it up . I told her that as long as I could get up and down from a tree stand and draw my bow I would continue to hunt .
  20. Some of the guys had said on other threads that they felt a person should be able to hunt with whatever weapon they choose to hunt with . So what is the difference in a person choosing to hunt with whatever method he chooses ?
  21. I would like to be able to bait but don't . If I did , I would have someone tapping me on the shoulder in no time . Some guys don't see the difference in a pile of bait and a food plot . I would take a pile of corn or apples that would draw deer to a predestined spot over a food plot where they could go anyplace at random any day of the week . I have seen guys walking out of the store with bags of corn , etc and know that they have to be baiting . Unless it becomes legal , I won't do it .
  22. If you are going to enclose it and put in windows , 4X4 is too small for Bow hunting . I am only 5'8" and I would have to have the arrow sticking out of the window and still hit my elbow on the back wall in something that small . Just my opinion ...........
  23. No trade here but thanks anyway ...........
