  1. Clearly stated but I don't agree . There are a lot of stupid parents out there and little Billie-Bob doesn't need a gun in his hands !
  2. Not sure but if it is State Land , I would check with the DEC to find out if someone has posted land that shouldn't be posted .
  3. It's gonna be a bitch to change batteries in that Trail Cam !
  4. I was Installing and Removing Real Estate signs today . Holy Crap was it windy !
  5. I forgot all about it ..... Not that I would need any the way the season has been so far !
  6. I guess they should spread the corn out in a wider area . The father showed no remorse for his kid doing something stupid . What's that say for teaching youngsters !
  7. I believe that the white print on the tree strap is supposed to be facing out or else the strap can come loose . Try that ...............
  8. Hope the weather is better there than it is is here with the rain . Good Luck !
  9. How can you tell how heavy an arrow is when it is stuck in a deer ? Something about the OP's post sounds like BS ! Where are the pictures and have you contacted the authorities ?
  10. Stupid is as stupid does ..... Put my hunting clothes on when I parked at the field in Geneseo . Didn't want to dress too heavy or it would screw up drawing the bow . Walked to fast to the stand . Set out a couple scent wicks and was in the stand by 6:45 . It was a bit nippy and I worked up a little sweat walking and getting set up . At about 7:50 I saw a doe way across the west field and thought it was going to be a great day . I had cooled down and by 8:30 I was COLD ! By 9:30 I couldn't handle it any more and got down from the stand to take a walk to warm up . I took a couple steps , looked down the lane way and there was a doe about 70 yards away . I quick got back in the stand and waited . She never showed up . Left at 11 am . Went back to the stand at 3:30 and saw just one doe all afternoon . If I had only stayed in the morning stand for a few more minutes I probably would have had a shot . Day-um !!!
  11. Heading out for Geneseo in a few minutes to sit in the nice cool breeze . It's only a 50 mile drive . Just to think that next week I will have to get up an hour earlier to have the same light / darkness . Ugggghhhhhh !
  12. I like the way the tags are issued now . No problemo !
  13. Drove to my stand in Pittsford yesterday . Was all set by 6:35 and it was a bit cold . Left at 10:30 after seeing zilch . Walked over to one of my son's stands and checked it out . It's in an old apple orchard . Grabbed a cup of coffee in Mendon and something to eat . Stopped at my son's home in Honeoye Falls and dropped some stuff off for him . Headed to Geneseo for an afternoon hunt . Stopped at my SILs neighbor's house and talked to him . He hasn't been out as he has Fibromyalgia and is in a lot of pain . Parked my vehicle and put my hunting clothes back on . As I got about 100 yards from the Subi , I caught a glimpse of brown hauling butt in the thick stuff between when I was and the pasture lot . If I had an arrow nocked and was more alert , I might have had a shot . Watched a doe feeding over 400 yards away . Later (around 5:15 pm ), I saw a doe and fawn in the deep weeds/grass about 200 yards away . At 6 pm , the doe with two fawns stepped into the far end of the bean field and were eating . At about 6:10 , I heard a deer warning sound in the lot beyond the mama and fawns . They watched in that direction for a couple minutes and took off . Then I saw 2 deer hauling butt from where the sound came from . No shots but at least I saw some deer .
  14. I am with Bubba on this . I wouldn't turn him in but I would tell him how I feel and if he persisted with his lack of hunting ethics , I wouldn't hunt with him anymore . It's Poaching no matter how you slice it !
  15. Early ---- don't hunt near any Oak Trees . That would be unfair to the deer .
  16. The writer used some poor English and spelling ..... Better be careful when driving a " hum eye " .... duh !
  17. I hate it when we go back to Standard Time . I have to get up an hour earlier in the am to get to a stand or blind an hour before sunrise .

    WNY wind

    I have never had much luck hunting on a windy day . It always seemed like the deer tended to wait it out for the wind to die down .
  19. Some folks don't like the WB because there is contact with the shaft and it slows down the arrow . A big "2 to 3 fps" ...... wow , big deal ! You wouldn't even notice that . Something I found that helped when I used a WB was putting Armor All on the length of the shaft . It also helped when pulling arrows out of a 3-D target .
  20. At least 1 hour before sunrise . The leaves are usually wet / damp and don't crunch so minimum noise . Gives it time for things to settle down .
  21. I used a WB for a few years and had good luck with it . I wanted to switch vanes and shoot Quick Sin Vanes and switched to Drop Away Rests . The WB is a great rest for hunting .
  22. Dicks in Webster looked like they have a pretty good ammo supply . I need to get some CC! 200 larger rifle primers but i'm not in a hurry .
