  1. Jim Maki - Ravena NY 518-756-6258 or 756-2183 ... I've been going there for 7-8 years now and he does a great job .... costs last year $70.00 for regular cut and extra for making summer/breakfast sausage !
  2. I've never shot a Bear but if the odd chance that happens is there a place to donate Bear meat like there is for Venison .... Local Elks lodge ?
  3. I'm looking for a reliable Gun Smith in either Albany or Greene County ? Any advice ?
  4. I was wrong about the 12 Ga. its a Browning , the 22 is a Remington Model 12-A . The Mauser was modified years ago by the Bennet Gun Works Delmar NY .
  5. Nothing like being able to get back to work after hunting season and proudly exclaiming " Yup , I blew Bambi's Brains out again this year" LOL
  6. I just inherited my wife's Fathers guns , her brother and cousin had them for the past 20 years (her Father passed away 20 yrs ago) and her brother doesnt hunt - lucky me ! Anyway they are a 7mm Mauser-modified with fold-over scope-bolt action, a 12ga Remington Auto-Loader and a little 22 Pump which is missing the rod to hold the shells in . Her brother shot 1 deer with the Mauser and when it bailed/cried he gave up hunting . I have'nt shot any of them yet and have no experience with 7mm , I am thinking of using it this season or just sticking with the good ole 30/30 Winchester . Any Thoughts welcome !
  7. My house is oil how water baseboard but we installed a woodstove in the basement . I would have gone with a pellet stove but we lose power now and again and so I didnt want to relie(sp) on electric for heat-auger- ! When I do burn the HW boiler never comes on and the house - 1400 sg ft.- stays at roughly 72 degrees . We burn somewhere between 4-5 cords per year , last year we paid $200.00 per cord . I found a small fan that is made to sit on the top of the woodstove and when it gets hot it starts to blow the air around the basement using no electricity !
  8. A full moon with 2-3 inches of snow would be excellant !
  9. If there is a cure I hope they keep it under wraps till I'm under the dirt !
  10. If I was a bow hunter I dont think I would hesitate on taking the shot , but thats me !
  11. I constantly hold back on the urge to twist their neck so the hat fits properly ....LOL
  12. I've always hunted from a stand with my rifle , if for no other reason too get my scent up there and I believe I see more deer that way .
  13. Congrats ... now thats a perfect example of getting future generations of hunters involved !
  14. I have a Power Line bordering some of my property and can hunt it , anyone else have that nearby ? Opinions welcome !
  15. Welcome Aboard the Board LOL ! I joined this board last year and find it a really good experience ! You'll get a lot of good advice from very experienced Hunters . Various war stories (hunting) break out now and again but all in good nature !
