I saw a home made video on a Southern Hog Hunt and you could see the hog running off with the arrow in the dark . It made the hog easy to find . If you get a pass through on a deer , it should make the arrow easier to find . If not , chances are the deer is going to break the arrow shaft running through the brush and you are out an extra $10 .

The Stryker Strykezone 380 at $749 was rated better than the Tenpoint Carbon Elite at $1699 . That was a surprise . The "Great Buy" is the Carbon Express Covert SLS at $599 and the least expensive bow , the Parker Tomahawk at $499 was rated 7th out of the 11 tested .

Soccer .......... the fans are nuts and there have been riots at some games and people have been killed . And .......... blaze orange isn't going to keep a fan safe at a soccer game !

I was at Fastrac today and the only gas they have that is "ethanol free" is their premium gas .

It only takes one spark to set the dry woods on fire . Some of those fires out west are allegedly started by someone throwing a cig butt out or sparks from a campfire .

Nice buck and he sure likes to pose for the camera .

One of the guys at our local Fastrac Station said they are going to start selling non-ethanol gas in the near future .

The August issue of Outdoor Life has write ups on 11 new compounds .

The August issue of Outdoor Life has a write up on some new crossbows .

Well , here is some info ............ http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2012/07/13/ny-state-dry-spell-prompts-warnings-to-ny-boaters-campers/

I heard it on the news up our way but havn't seen anything in writing .

I would be there . I have passed on spikes , forks and eaten my buck tags along with some doe venison .

You can make your own for about $3 each . Check the DIY forum .

The Government is stupid . We get 10 percent ethanol in our gas and it is supposed to be raised to 15 percent soon . It attracts moisture and ruins engines . You can purchase Sta-bil and Startron additives that help reduce damage caused by the junk put in the gas .. Ethanol is derived from corn . Farmers are planting more corn and shipping it to the ethanol manufacturers which creates a grain shortage and raises the price of beef . I believe the Ethanol Plants are Government subsidized . It's one vicious circle . No doubt small engine manufacturers and repair shops are making a killing with the crap that gets put into our fuel !

Welcome to Hunting NY . Make sure you have a lot of PopCorn handy !

I doubt that the farmers would bother to report any deer killed by their farm equipment and that any deer killed would be a part of any report .

Fawns aren't the only ones that succumb to farm equipment .......

We have only had a sprinkling here in Ontario . I was going to help my son take down some ladder stands and possibly put them up on other properties but he said it was raining in Honeoye Falls and didn't want to take a chance on one of us getting hurt by slipping on the ladders or him making his torn biceps muscle any worse .

Yes , a thread can be unlocked but seldom done . Usually , it's locked for a good reason like maybe it has gotten totally out of hand . The only threads I have locked are the ones in the classifieds when an item has been SOLD . Is there a thread that you feel should be unlocked ?

Don't make ants do that again !

Been shooting the bow . Going to cut and fletch some new arrows and use the arrows I hunted with for practice . My oldest son injured his bicep muscle so tomorrow afternoon , I will help him move some atands from a property and put them up elsewhere .

I found the quality of the video was excellent but the content was boring ......
