Write to the guy and ask him where these over populated forests are located .

I leave the ladder stands out all year then buy ratchet straps and replace the following tear and replace . Harbor Freight has the Orange Straps on sale quite often --- 4 for $8.00 Tractor Supply has the Blue Straps on sale quite often --- 8 for $20.00 .

Picture was taken Nov 30 not Dec 1 ...... I was there on Dec 1st and no deer showed up

I don't think so .......I think they are curious about the "click"

Talked to a guy that we share a hunting spot with ..... we bow hunt and he , his GF and daughter gun hunt the area . He invited me to hunt with him and a few others in Fishers on Saturday so I am going to give that a try . Real nice guy and unselfish !

Welcome to Hunting NY

Welcome to Hunting NY

I remember when the "Women's Lib " movement started . Some women would give you a dirty look if you held the door for them . They were probably the ones who burned their Bras while they were wearing them !

I move over into the passing lane to let people merge but if there is someone to my left of a car closing up on me in the left lane , I shouldn't have to brake to let some ding dong want to push me over .

It won't work on your Farmall Tractor .............

I would love to have the opportunity to take a doe . I wouldn't give it a second thought !

Whine for today ----- A-holes who don't know the proper way to merge into traffic . Traffic coming onto the main highway from an on-ramp are supposed to yield to that traffic . Too many drivers expect the vehicle in the flowing traffic to brake so they can pull in ahead instead of behind . I'd like to have a Tank that would do 80 mph and take care of some of these comatose drivers ! I can't move over a lane because another car is there so I have to brake but there is no traffic behind me for a 1/2 mile .

Got to Geneseo just before 6:30 . Got my gear out and pulled the sled out of my trailer that I had left there . Put the 2 man chair blind on it and started out as I had about a 3/4 mile hike and had to cross the creek . I got through 2 pasture lots , the creek , and was heading down the lane way . I was about 500 yards from where I was going to set up when I saw a doe about 150 yards away ( 7 am ) she watched for a few seconds as I approached and left . Another doe stepped into the lane way at the same spot and did the same thing . I thought that it was going to be a great day . I set up overlooking to mowed horse trails where the deer normally come out of the thick stuff . It was cold and I should have walked slower so as not to work up a sweat . Around 10 am the sun showed up and it started to take the chill off . I got out of the blind at 11:30 and walked around a bit . Didn't do too much as the snow was still crunchy . Pulled the camera I had in the pond field . Moved the chair blind and put in on the bank of the pond . This gave me an elevated look . The pond has all sorts of brush around it so the blind didn't stick out like a sore thumb . Nothing ! Left at 3:30 and headed back up . Pulled card from 2 other cameras . The only plus I had was there wasn't anyone walking around with flashlights ! Helped my SIL with a couple jobs and went to Wal-Mart and Tractor Supply . On the way home heading East on Rt 5 & 20 , I saw at least 6 deer feeding in a cut corn field about 1/2 mile east of Wal-Mart . Damn !

Confusing post to say the least !

I wonder .............

Heading for Geneseo again tomorrow am . Taking the 2 man chair blind and going to try hunting the thick stuff . It's about 1 3/4 mile walk so if I get lucky , it will be a long drag . I have my trailer at the property but my ATV is out back . Oops ! I will be bringing the trailer back with me . While doing some walking , I found where I can place a stand next year but a lot of trimming has to be done . Re-evaluating the past 2 seasons , I need to find a different property / properties . The Geneseo property has been good to me over the years but not the past two .

Good luck ..... Follow the doctor's orders !

I have seen deer in the village of Webster also . Saw a nice buck near Webster Ponds standing in the road . Used to see deer by Xerox north of Orchard St between Phillips and Rt 250 . They know where they are safe !

I caught the 782 year old hunter too .......... I bought one of the Neoprene face masks that keep the face warm but I get claustrophobic and can't stand to wear it . I take coumadin ( blood thinner ) and cannot take the cold like I used to . I sometimes take a sleeping bag with me , put it around my shoulders and pull the ends together . That way I can stay out for a much longer time . Like Belo said , a blind with a heater . Dicks sells a Coleman Catalytic heater for $25 that use the 2# propane bottle . They are great in 20 degree weather .

Happy Birthday --- Have a Great Day !

Congrats on your deer !

Saw a dead doe on Rt 104 just west of Salt Road in Webster . Don't the deer know they are supposed to be in the woods !

I would love to have your problem !
