I butchered the buck I shot 2 years ago and got 52# of meat . During gun season , I shot a doe that was larger than the buck . I took it to a guy in Walworth that charged $68 to process the deer . A girl carried the box of meat to my truck . When I got home and lifted the box , it felt light . I weighed myself on the scales and then weighed myself holding the box . Box and all weighed 33# . At a processor , I got 20 less pounds of meat from a larger deer . That rip-off cost me over $2 a pound for venison ! http://www.downsouthhuntingforums.com/images/smiles/pissed.gif[/img]...http://www.downsouthhuntingforums.com/images/smiles/pissed.gif[/img]...http://www.downsouthhuntingforums.com/images/smiles/pissed.gif[/img]

It's the manager's discretion to set the Clearance Prices at WallyWorld . I have bought stuff in Geneseo and figured the Webster store would have the same price . No way . The Webster hardly marks their Hunting Merchandise down .

I have mixed results using a Grunt tube . The 1st time I ever used one was about 16 years ago . I had no idea how to use it and was just blowing the darned thing . I was in a stand in a brushy area of a fiel that the deer passed through . I head a commotion in the woods that sounded like someone breaking limbs and thought , no one else should be out here . I blew it a couple more times , heard some noise and saw a buck standing in the shadows at the edge of the woods looking at me . He knew exactly where the noise had come from . I learned to be more cautious after that !

You get the Dick's gift cards and use the "X" amout of dollars off purchases from the Entertainment Book . If you get their SCORES Card and use that , you get a $10 certificate for every $300 spent . It's like Christmas all over again ! http://www.downsouthhuntingforums.com/images/smiles/dancing_b06.gif[/img]..http://www.downsouthhuntingforums.com/images/smiles/dancing_b06.gif[/img].

Sportsman's Guide has several pages of binos . Check their website

Sits ----- almost all of your posts are in this long thread soooooooo , I would suggest to the others ...................

Nice ...... That bear must be Fuzzy Wuzzy as it looks blury .

The bino thread made me think of something when someone mentioned getting something as a gift . For years I would get something as a present and it would be useless to me and I would either give it away or put it away and let it accumulate dust . When asked what I wanted for Christmas , etc , I would respond , I don't know . Finally , in my old age , I would answer , either a gift card from Dick's or WalMart . Now I get what I want or need rather than something useless . This may sound tacky to some of you but it works for me ........

The problem with high powered binos is that they are heavy .......... http://www.natchezss.com/brand.cfm?contentID=productDetail&brand=NK&prodID=NK7219&prodTitle=Nikon Action 12x50 Binocular http://www.natchezss.com/brand.cfm?brand=NK&category=197

I have a pistol permit that was issued for Wayne County . I was told bu 2 different Sheriff'd Deputies that unless it says different on my permit , I am allowed and legal to carry concealed .

So now if someone thinks the crossbow manufacturers are pushing the crossbows to be legalized in New York State , they are Morons ??? Yeah , like the manufacturers have no monetary interest in getting the legislation passed for crossbows and they are unbiased ! There is a lot of money to be made when crossbows come into the NYS hunting scene ...........http://www.downsouthhuntingforums.com/images/smiles/bad_3_wait.gif[/img]

They probably thought you were one of the farm hands and the deer don't seem to be skittish when the farmer's are out working . http://www.downsouthhuntingforums.com/images/smiles/2cents.gif[/img]

I use a cheap pair of 10X Tasco's ..........

If and when the Crossbows become legal in NY , it would probably be a good idea to have a Crossbow Forum to keep things separated .

They aren't changing . They are burning up from the heat !

$89 isn't a bad price for Nikon's . They make excellent optics . http://www.downsouthhuntingforums.com/images/smiles/beer.gif[/img]

No sense in being a smart ass . You may not have any idea of how it feels to have some nimrod looking at you through a scope . I have..... during shotgun season . I confronted the guy and called him about every name in the book . Also , the request was for Binos under $100 . I don't see any in the post .

I have had good luck with the Stealth Cams and very bad luck with the WildViews . I bought a Moultrie I-40 and that works great .

Great looking buck !!!

What is the best way to clean dies out ? I was told to use Q-Tips with denatured alcohol and then spray a bit of Hornaday OneShot into the die . What do you reloaders do ?

Are the manufacturer's of BOLTS aware of this ??? Why do they call their projectiles , BOLTS ? http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/links/link.jsp?id=0079921419251a&type=product&cmCat=SEARCH_all&returnPage=search-results1.jsp&Ntk=Products&QueryText=bolts&sort=all&Go.y=8&N=0&Nty=1&hasJS=true&_dyncharset=ISO-8859-1&Go.x=18&_DARGS=%2Fcabelas%2Fen%2Fcommon%2Fsearch%2Fsearch-box.jsp.form23 http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/links/link.jsp?id=0079922419253a&type=product&cmCat=SEARCH_all&returnPage=search-results1.jsp&Ntk=Products&QueryText=bolts&sort=all&Go.y=8&N=0&Nty=1&hasJS=true&_dyncharset=ISO-8859-1&Go.x=18&_DARGS=%2Fcabelas%2Fen%2Fcommon%2Fsearch%2Fsearch-box.jsp.form23 http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/links/link.jsp?id=0026201416404a&type=product&cmCat=SEARCH_all&returnPage=search-results1.jsp&Ntk=Products&QueryText=bolts&sort=all&Go.y=8&N=0&Nty=1&hasJS=true&_dyncharset=ISO-8859-1&Go.x=18&_DARGS=%2Fcabelas%2Fen%2Fcommon%2Fsearch%2Fsearch-box.jsp.form23

How much of a box do you have to have to make it road legal and how high of a box are you going to build ?

I moved the scope back and then moved the front scope ring and moved it back farther . Took the rifle over to the range and zeroed it in ......http://www.downsouthhuntingforums.com/images/smiles/thumbup.gif[/img]

About a week into archery season and Dick's should be selling the 15' ladder stands for $50 .
