I try to keep it to 30 yards but shot a buck at 35 yards 2 years ago . Most are 20 yards or less .

I stopped by the Avon DEC office on my way from Honeoye Falls to Geneseo this morning . I spoke to one of the officers and she said a certain poundage was required to propel and arrow and barbed broadheads are illegal . She said there is nothing stating that other tips would be illegal . She said field tips are legal . Amen !

I hope that dumb ass hasn't been breeding . He couldn't see to well , it was dark and he shot what he thought was a deer with a shotgun during ML season because he didn't own a ML . The guy needs a brain scan !

All those tickets should cost those dumb asses a few bucks !

My youngest son wanted to just bow hunt so he took the Archery Safety Course a few years ago and got his certificate . He practiced shooting all summer . A week before bow season , he went to purchase his Archery License but couldn't get one because he didn't have the Gun Safety course certificate . He wasn't going to gun hunt but needed it in order to Bow Hunt .......... :

I used a 3D doe decoy last year at my mother's property . Had it about 20 yards from the stand . A button buck came through the small woods about 5 yards from where I was perched . He didn't stop at the edge of the woods but stepped right into the field without looking . The BB caught a glimpse of the decoy and all 4 hooves left the ground . I was laughing soooo hard that I got busted by a 7 pointer that was following the same trail . I left the decoy in the back of a vehicle that was parked in the field . When I went down last week , it was gone . The junk in the field had been auctioned off for scrap and they figured it belonged to the property owner . Bummer !

I toss my cookies at least one a day ......... :

Not unless it was light out ! ???

No .......... I havn't done anything with those yet . But , thanks .

Stapped at DICK's in Webster . They had a Hunter's Specialties Package for sale for $9.95 that included a hard case , 2 oz bottle of Dominant Buck urine , a 2 oz bottle of Natural Doe Urine and 4 scent wicks . The sign said "Save $19.95" ......... I'll give it a try

I just got hit with it again but the Shields don't show up at the bottom of the screen and nothing popping up on the Monitor . I am doing another scan with VIPER right now .

I used a MacKenzi 3D target for a decoy several years ago . Had a buck come up to it but my sister in laws horse whinnied and the buck ran off . Uded it on the edge of a woods when the field was grassy rather than overgrown . Two doe spotted it and came to it on a bee line . I shot the larger of the 2 doe at 20 yards . Other times it spooked the deer too .

I don't recall where I was on the site but my son in law , who works computer systems for a living , said that sometimes you can get zapped by these malwares when your mouse passes over some ads , etc without evening opening them . Scarey how the Computer Nerds can cripple systems ! http://www.downsouthhuntingforums.com/images/smiles/snipersmiley.gif[/img]...http://www.downsouthhuntingforums.com/images/smiles/snipersmiley.gif[/img]

I have met Charlie at least 3 times . Real nice guy .

Bubba --- Don't give him my address ! http://www.downsouthhuntingforums.com/images/smiles/help.gif[/img]

I can only shoot 11 yards in my basement ! Honest !!!

Ditto ! Shoot those does .

I guess it gives the ML guys a week of their own . What's the problem . We can hunt with a bow from the start of Bow Season , through gun season and late Bow season . Why should we be greedy ?

Well , I wasn't the only one then . But mine happened Saturday night . I got zapped by "Security Tool" .... The message read something like this : Spyware IEMonster was actively detected . This is Spyware that attempts to steal passwords from Internet Explorer , Mozilla , Firefox , etc .. Click to remove it immediately . It gave me a choice to run in an "Unsecure Mode" but the warning kept popping up . It wouldn't go away and the Security Tool had an $80 price on it . http://www.downsouthhuntingforums.com/images/smiles/angry_table_puter.gif[/img] Late Sunday am , I was able to get hold of my son in law that works with computers and he told me not to do buy the Security Tool as that would give the computer the Virus . That is how the bastards infect your machine . We tried different stuff and the malware had the computer running at almost a standstill . My VIPER antivirus showed No Problem . I asked my son in law about doing a System Restore at an earlier date . He said to try it to see if I could . I did a System Restore for Oct 21 and it got rid of the Security Tool gizmo . Then I did a DEER SCAN with VIPER that took almost 2 hours . For any of you that still have the problem , try the SYSTEM RESTORE on your computer .

I set up a Renzo feeding doe decoy on the edge of a field yesterday . Sprayed it down with scent killer . Had 3 doe approach it but stayed back about 50 yards . They blew at it , ran off and came back . I don't think I will try it again . I have had some mixed luck in the past using a MacKenzi target for a decoy .

Has anyone picked up and processed a Roadlill deer ? In Irondiquoit they used to have a list of folks that would take fresh roadkill and the cops would drop them off at a residence of a person on the list . I would think there would be a lot of damaged meat on them . Just curious ...
