I see where rain is forecasted between 6 & 8 am Saturday in the Naples area . Then it shows Cloudy .

When God said "Let there be light" , I was there to flip the switch !

Does anyone else take spare gear along when they hunt ? I keep my release , armguard , quiver in the bowcase with my bow but ...... I have an extra release and armguard buried in the bottom of my backpack . Now if I forget my bow case or backpack , i'm in trouble ! http://www.downsouthhuntingforums.com/images/smiles/waaah.gif[/img]

I had my sister in law's neighbor's dog spoil my hunt . My sister in law told the neighbor to keep her dog across the road on their property but apparently they can't control the dog . I am not about to shoot it even though I had considered doing just that .

Guys that break the law on a regular basis often don't get caught . Someone who does it the 1st time usually gets nabbed . He wasn't going to take any chances even with so few DEC officers around . All it would have taken was to run into another hunter and have no tag or have the opportunity to shoot a deer and not be able to tag it . He did the right thing . Don't forget to have your license Saturday .........

Most cameras have a relatively slow trigger speed . When a deer goes by , you might just catch the tail end .

I was shooting woodchucks for a farmer in Walworth a few yaers ago . He told me to also shoot any cats I saw because they were Feral . I never shot any as I had no way to tell if it was wild and certainly didn't want to shoot someone's pet . I know that my mother's cat used to hunt several hundred yards from her house so just because they are a distance from a resident doesn't mean they are wild .

I bought one of these presses and had only used it once . I had a new string put on my bow a few months ago and the peep had rotated slightly . I had compensated for that but it finally got to be a nuisance so I broke out the Portable Bow Press . Backed the limb bolts out 4 turns each , applied the press , rotated the string 1/2 turn , removed press and tightened limb bolts 4 turns each . Simple to use and it corrected my problem .

I am always tired opening day because I can't sleep the night before opening day . http://www.downsouthhuntingforums.com/images/smiles/help.gif[/img]

Everyone is getting their gear ready for the Southern Zone Bow Opener . Whatever you do , DON'T forget your Hunting License and permits . A friend of mine just gun hunted and we drove to Geneseo . It's a 50 mile drive . We got our gear out and I asked him where his Back Tag was and he gave me the "oh sha-zit" look . He wasn't going to break the law so he sacked out in my truck . I didn't have any luck that day but I took my time and let him suffer . I have two totes packed . One with clothes and one with my backpack & my HSS . I gotta get the bowcase and quiver ready to go .

I enjoy seeing the pics of what has been around and passed through the area . I had a camera up on a friend's area but others that could hunt the area messed up the area . I had gotten a few pics of does and one of a buck that I never showed them . Two of the guys parked the ATV right in front of the camera . It was a waste to hang the camera on that property .

A well fet cat and ........... it's quartering away !

The music was irritating as all hell ! I held off on turning the volume off as I thought there might be some audio narration but ........ there wasn't any .

All kidding aside , it's only about 1 1/2 miles (as the crow flies) from the Livingston Country Club .

Hey , at 69 years , I can still get up and down from treestands and drag a deer ! I am not in great physical shape but I bet I might be in better shape than some of the young farts on here ! I almost said whippersnapers but most of the members wouldn't know what that was ,,,,,,,,, :-X

I thought you were from Seneca county . What-cha doing in these parts ? Work... one LONG commute! (~1hr. each way...) Gives me time to look for roadkilled coyotes anyway... On your way to work Wednesday , stop and measure the Coyote for NYslowHand ..........http://www.downsouthhuntingforums.com/images/smiles/beer.gif[/img]

Doc mentioned being a cheapskate and not being up to snuff with today's technology . He failed to mention that his communucation system is still 2 vegetable cans with a string to make calls ! http://www.downsouthhuntingforums.com/images/smiles/icon_smile_whistling.gif[/img]

I think I have the answer to this ....................

I retired from Xerox in 1998 . A few years later I started working part time for a guy that has a Real Estate Sign business . I would work a couple days a week installing Real Estate signs . I have hardly worked for the past few months as the market has slowed way down since they quit giving the home buyers rebates . I didn't take the job to make a living . It got me out of the house and out in the public . The Real Estate Market is hurting !

I thought you were from Seneca county . What-cha doing in these parts ?

About 8 years ago I was putting up Posted signs on my sister in law's property in Geneseo . I had to be on her neighbor's property in order to do this . His northern horse pasture lot had brush that was 15 feet or more deep . My foot felt something . I looked and it was a shotgun . It was a rusty Remington 20 ga pump . I couldn't cycle it but it had birdshot shells in it . I gave it to my sil's neighbor and he had no idea who left it there . How could anyone leave a shotgun in the woods ?

Using that Fresh Earth Scent doesn't help me 'cause i'm older than dirt !

I agree with WNYBuckHunter . You won't want a high power scope on slug gun especially if you are hunting a wooded area .

I have gone into the Profile 6 times and added my birthdate and it still doesn't show . Apparently it doesn't relate to 1941 .........http://www.downsouthhuntingforums.com/images/smiles/waaah.gif[/img]
