Hello, i know this is a long shot but I am looking for a lease for the 2018 season and beyond within an hour of Albany. The lease is mostly for deer hunting but would also maybe hunt bear and turkey. The lease would be for myself and 1-2 other hunters. We are responsible ethical hunters who would sign a liability agreement and follow all land owners rules. Ideally this will be a long term lease. The only reason I’m looking for new hunting land is I have a 1 year old son and want to hunt closer to home to be able to spend more time with him. I have tried that invention called google and have also called most farms in my area. If you don’t have land to lease maybe you may be able to steer me in the direction of 1. I’m trying to avoid state land so I can hang cameras and stands and I like knowing where other hunters are in the area. Thanks for any help andy

I just put a Bushnell Trophy DOA on my T/C and what a pain it has been to sight in. Im finally getting close but it still needs work. I was using the iron sights and it was plenty accurate just wanted to extend my range since most deer I saw during muzzleloader season I wasn't comfortable at that range with iron sights.

I just purchased a comfort zone deluxe ladder stand which is 7 feet higher than my other stand and very top heavy. once I got everything secure and tight I noticed there was alittle flex in the 1st part of the ladder but once I reached the support from the ladder to the tree the flex was gone from there on up. With the taller ladder stands is this normal and safe? I always have my HSS on but im not sure if I should add a ratchet strap or 2 for alittle extra support. Thanks for any input im still learning new things each year with hunting..

Any recommendations on public land with in a hour from Albany?
