Ground blind - stand stool or chair. What's good & comfortable?
fasteddie replied to nyslowhand's topic in Deer Hunting
I had a spot once where I couldn't put up a stand and a ground blind would stick out so I snipped some limbs in the brush , took along one of those green plastic chairs , a large black umbrella and a 4' X 4' piece of burlap camo . Saw deer go by at a distance while bow hunting and didn't get a shot until gun season and took a doe with BP . Those plastic chairs are flimsy but the fold-up canvas ones are hard to shoot out of with a bow in a tent blind . -
Rangefinder, who has one, any good?
fasteddie replied to burmjohn's topic in Hunting Gear Reviews and Gear Discussions
You have to be careful bidding on EBAY . A friend goes on there and buys stuff (so do I) and gets caught up in the bidding . He sometimes bids more than what he could pay for locally . I told him to see what he could purchase it for plus tax . Then look at the shipping costs on EBAY and figure out what his top dollar would be and make his maximum bid and leave it alone . The idjit sees someone has out bid him and bids more . He thinks he won ! -
Sounds like you got a winner Doc ! http://www.downsouthhuntingforums.com/images/smiles/beer.gif[/img]

I have had fairly good luck while hunting midday . Sometimes hunters will quit at 10 am or so and when they leave , they may kick something out . Deer feed several times a day and there is midday movement . I remember reading an article in a Bowhunting Magazine called "Hunting The T's" ( ten , twelve , two & Three ) . I think it was about deer movement at those times of day . Opening day of bow season , I will stay out all day . I may change stands due to the wind , etc , but it's an all day hunt unless I cash in .

Is the NRA giving us a con-job ???
fasteddie replied to fasteddie's topic in Gun and Hunting Laws and Politics Discussions
Maybe you should read some of the articles ...................The NRA doesn't want Reid to lose for fear of Schumer getting power . The NRA changed it's mind for fear of losing members . The NRA certainly does us a lot of good but that doesn't make them perfect either . http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2010/sep/2/nra-mans-up-to-harry-reid/ http://www.opposingviews.com/i/lesson-learned-nra-won-t-endorse-sen-harry-reid -
The NRA came out and said they are not supporting Harry Reid yet they gave him money and a praisworthy writeup in their magazine . The NRA has NOT come out in support of the Republican candidate who has claimed to be 100% for gun rights . http://www.ammoland.com/2010/09/03/does-money-and-praise-make-an-endorsement/

I stopped by today and checked the card in the camera . The only pics were of me . I'll check it out in another week but at least I know the camera is working .

Could you imagine what one of those shows would be like if it was done by John Madden . He'd be drawing all kinds of crap at to where the hunter was and should have been plus where he should have hit the animal . Madden would sure as heck make it interesting ! http://www.downsouthhuntingforums.com/images/smiles/beer.gif[/img]

Scentlok lawsuit in Field and Stream article

Does anyone subscribe to this magazine ? Is it any good ? What about New York Fish & Game magazine ?

I wasn't smart enough to do that . The skeeters were chewing me up and I was hurrying . I should recheck the directions to make sure I have it set right . It seems like the more expensive a camera is the more you have to do with it . I didn't want to wait 5 minutes for it to start up . Like mama says ," stupid is as stupid does" !

Welcome to Hunting NY !

I have my Moultrie IR-40 set up on some property in Walworth . I have checked it out twice the past 2 weeks and no pics taken . I ran it through the diagnostic check and everything was okay . RGE came through on their adjacent property about 3 months ago and cut down a lot of brush and just left it there so I am wondering if that's what screwed things up . Anyway , I repositioned the camera and put out some scent to see if anything shows up . I will probably pass on hunting this property this fall . :'( ... :'( ... :'(

Has anyone set out turkey decoys during deer season ? I have tried my luck at spring turkey hunting and have had deer approach the decoys . I have been tempted to set the turkey decoys out during bow season but never have yet .

Let's see a show with one of these Famous Hunter's shooting a doe instead of passing up the 2 1/2 year old 10 pointers for "the big one" !
