  1.  The original question was does anyone know the live weight of a

    deer that dressed out at 150. I don't know about a chart but I know

    from my own experience that I did that the deer I weighed then gutted

    the ave was a loos of 32% to 35%.  If you then process the deer including

    deboning it you will only get about 40% to 45% of the meat that is deboned

    and trimmed. I have been processing deer for 31 yrs. That amount changes

    with the age, health, where it is shot etc. I have actually refused to process

    an animal because of massive damage (excessive shots) lol because I

    didn't want to hear that oh I didn't get much meat back anyway theres lots

    of factors in the aount of meat you receive after the deer is fully processed.

  2.   I have all original with certificates of authenticity the winters calm collection.

    It was fired from 1994 through 1996 for the Bradford exchange. These plates

    of deer in a wintery setting.10 plates in the set all in mint condition and gold

    trimmed. The goin value of the set I'm not sure of but in individual plates range

    from 18.00 to 28 dollars apiece. I don't have pics yet but you can look these

    plates up on line. This is a very nice set and a great looking addition to a club

    house or in a hunters den above the fireplace. anyone interested plz make

    fair offers and I will post pictures tomorrow.

     

  3. I am in the orange county area but can travel a bit. Resident ego your right but my time

    was tight and it was close to home. I am a great hunter with a lot to offer anyone who

    has some land. I like to manage as good as possible any land I have access to. Food

    plots etc.Anyway I really thought starting now I could get on the land pretty much scout

    it this upcoming season then go from there. I live in walden ny orange county. So again

    anyone who could help I would be grateful and have alot to give back to the land owner

    also not afraid to work for the land owner on weekends or some evenings.

  4.  Hi add 32 to 35% to the dressed weight that's about the percentage.What I did was weigh 5

    deer dead weight then weighed them dressed that was the percentage I came up with between the

    5 deer.I did this some yrs ago but I doubt that's changed. I did this in response to an article I read

    in outdoor mag in the 80s.

  5.   My landowner sold the land I was hunting for over 30 yrs.It was just me

    and my 18 yr old son.I had established a great hunting area foodplots,

    a pond, I had grown th oak ridge very hardy.I am a safe hunter now in my

    early 50's looking for new land in the orange county or lower ulster county.

    I have farm equipment, and hunting stands, and a great wealth of management

    knowledge.My ideal setup would be to partner with a land owner who would

    like to experience a great landowner/hunter relationship.I can give you land

    owner references as well as personal ones.I don't want to hunt state land.

    been there done that. I just wanna find a nice place to share with a couple

    other people and bring my son along.Thanks to anyone who can help I promise

    I am a most honest,dedicated,and respectful person.

  6. Listen be there done that get the local law enforcement involved before

    theres a run in.Post the heck out of the property also talk to the local D.E.C.

    OFFICER.They will not only get the trespass charge but other charges as

    well.I don't play that game at all.As for the old man looking for his cat.

    I'd walk off my property once then he'd get arested to sounds mean but

    you can not afford the have all that hard work flushed down the tube because

    someone can't follow the laws and a persons rules and wishes sorry but

    I learned yrs ago ZERO TOLERANCE RULE.

  7. Funny thing this you can buy it but its illegal to use it

    mentality.It really ticks me off about this.the bottom line here

    is its big business and another factor is unless someone turns

    people in who uses them the chances of getting caught are

    real slim.The property next to ours last where the guys were

    baiting got caught when we turned them in.They had to be

    on stand and within 100 yds of the bait.The thing that really bothers

    me is its illegal to feed let alone bait deer in ny yr round.guys if

    you know someones doing it turn them in were all adults here do the

    right thing.Its funny you walk in gandermountain the first thing you see

    is jugs of sweet mixes and blocks of minerals.Its really a shame guys.

  8. Well with the start of a new deer season comes every hunters dream of

    a trophy buck and mature doe harvests.But please be sure to put forth a solid

    effort to be safe and curtious to fellow hunters and especially land owners.

    If you get an opportunity take a child out with you so they to can be intrduced

    to our great conservation effort.Lets not forget also to be respectful to our wild

    game and our conservation laws.Report illegal activity,be responsible and above

    all be very safe and stay healthy.So again good luck everyone and enjoy our great

    outdoors and all it offers.

  10. I have been hunting especially deer since i was 16 started in

    sullivan county later in orange and ulster some delaware and

    upper ny state land.working it learning, teaching passing along

    my knowledge.I manage property.setup land,advise on food

    plot types,when,timing,what perrenials are best, soil types,I would

    consider my knowledge very valuble.I would like to move on I am

    50 this last july I have a 18 yr old son that has the same desire's

    I have we need a new place to to hang our stands.The property

    even though I am helping sell is great just won't last with out a firm

    hand and mind to tend it.So I am asking anyone in the lower ny

    state area orange ,ulster,sullivan,greene,dutchess,counties.If you

    need a helping hand no b.s. it would be a mutual relationship.

    I have all the eqiupment tractor,cutaway disc,sprayers,seeders,

    etc let me knowI can make your land a hot spot for deer..

  11. I made 2 mock scrapes last yr I from personal experience (learned)

    that cams near scrapes does affect the bigger mature bucks.So I make 2

    mock scrapes using code blue scrape paks,the 30 day ones but I also re-

    freshen with golden estrus starting late oct or early nov about when i see bucks

    following or chasing doe's I usaully run them in line with a natural scrape line

    (community) scrape line a mature bucks always looking for a fight from a

    new buck in the territory.I also use a buck urine very sparingly.in my scrapes.

    Look at my pics most of my kills are because they got fooled.But depending on

    time on stand and how nocturnal your older bucks are the real action and best time

    to harvest a mature dominate buck is at peek rut or later in the season 27 days

    after the peek rut ends the false or late rut kicks in.my 3 biggest bucks were taken

    at this time.Less pressure, more day time movement,oh and they will hit late food

    sources more simply because they know theres less does that need to be bred.

    I hope i helped but if you need to use cams use them more as a scouting tool

    not a following tool.Your biggest advantage is more time afield and knowing your

    hunting land,pressure,food sources,water sources and most of all your doe movements.

    They will lead you to the big boys everytime.

  13. I finally got my fall plots in I have 4 plots totalling

    about 3.5 acres.just sprouting up now.I have a clover,

    chicory, and sugar grass plot.I planted a biologic

    winter pea plot which I am excited about it germanated

    very qiuck.I have a techomante pea plus plot and I put in

    along a swamp bottom edge a clover and chicory plot.I

    have pics and will update weekly.I also mixed all the plots

    with some soybean Because it germanates quickly and

    attracts the deer faster.

  14. I manage 32 acres of land small but effective I started by clear

    cutting about 4 or 5 acres right through the middle.it was trees

    and heavy brush.I brush hogged the brush cut and rented a stump

    grinder for the trees.I cleared a 20 ft path around the pond on

    the property.Then went about setting up my food plots.I put

    more sweat then money in it at first.this took about 3 yrs to get

    it the way i wanted it.Just remember come up with a plan first,

    don't compromise on how you want it,take your time and your

    reward is the saticfaction when your done of knowing that this was

    your plan and your sweat,time and money.Then enjoy it to its fullest.

  15. For those who don't know or are wondering a fawn at birth and for

    2 to 3 weeks after have little or no sent.The doe finds a spot most

    always in tall grass or thick brush where they are totally hidden from

    sight.The doe leaves them and returns for feeding.occasionally moving

    them for protection.But they will not move own their own normally.I have

    walked up on fawns in my fields and at 3 or 4 ft away they just stare away

    and be still and silent.If by chance a predator comes upon them if the doe's

    not close by they will parrish.But if mom's near by she's on alert to divert the

    danger away from her young.

  16. This is an excellent and almost always not

    mentioned topic.I have planted food plots since

    the mid 90's.As a guideline I wont plant after

    may 31 through july 15 for the simple reason most

    fawn birth's and bedding time occur's around this

    time frame.I have drove up on fawn's in this time

    frame in tall grass or light brush and they don't move

    as part of their survival nature they don't move unless

    their mother moves them their survival depends on this.

    Great topic I really like that someone bought this to

    light.
