I wish I had a better view of hat rack but try h be told of one that big gave me the opportunity and had half a six point rack , I would take it. -
it needed a bit of enhancement.(Thanks WNY) He was right at the limit of the flash. Based on the VW beetle sized A$$ I figured he had to be pretty good.

Best luck I have had is to cook it raised. roasts on racks, steaks on a grill. Don't let it lay in the grease while cooking. I don't cook it to well even though it is suggested. I go medium. Of course I also eat ground beef rare. in steaks I like to go with a 50/50 mix of brown sugar and montreal steak seasoning. Place in a blender and pulverize it. rub the meat and wrap each piece in plastic wrap and place in fridge over night. unwrap and grill as normal.

It was really really good for the money.

I have one myself -
Let's look at the Transporting section in the regulations. I am assuming ( I know I know). that you have quartered it at a minimum, possibly even deboned? Transporting Deer and bear may be transported either inside or outside the vehicle. Doesn't apply while you are walking out. A deer carcass with head and deer carcass tag attached may be transported with the taker in attendance. Well it's not a carcass any longer and has not head so doesn't apply If someone other than the taker is transporting the deer, an additional tag supplied by the taker bearing the names and addresses of the consignee and taker must be attached to the carcass. Doesn't apply becasue you are there All portions of deer or bear meat being transported by the taker shall be individually tagged and the tags shall include the name, address, hunting license number, the date that the portions were cut, and the signature of the taker. The previous could apply to your conditions? Packaged or boxed portions of venison need only one tag and must be labeled "venison" on the outside of the box. If someone other than the taker is transporting the portions, an additional tag signed by the taker with the names and addresses of the consignee and taker is required for each portion. Doesn't seem to apply to your condition Non-resident hunters: If your home state prohibits the importation of whole deer carcasses from NY, you will need to follow the above guidelines for transportation of individual or packaged portions of deer meat while in New York State You are a resident so doesn't apply A deer carcass minus the head may be transported as above, but evidence of the sex of the deer must be intact. That would be as per the first bullet point but since it is cut up it is no longer a carcass. The point of this being if you are transporting a carcass with no head there little they can verify about the kill becasue the head is missing and no way to verify the antler conformance per the tag. That is why in the next section they want to know where the head is. The deer carcass tag must be affixed to the carcass, and a tag supplied by the taker must also be attached showing the name and address of the taxidermist where the head was sent. Heads of male deer may be transported to a taxidermist only if a tag supplied by the taker is attached bearing the taker's signature, address, hunting license number, number of points on each antler and the name and address of the taxidermist. Doesn't apply to your condition The head of a doe with antlers that are 3 inches or more can be removed for mounting. Follow the same procedure that you would use for a buck you are having mounted. (See above.) Same as two bullets up This is from the question and answer part. Do I need to have my deer tags with the deer meat in my freezer?A: No, the tags remain on the carcass. When the carcass is disposed of, the tags may also be discarded. However, when you are transporting packaged venison, you must provide a tag with the meat. Based on this answer they sure seem to view what you are leaving in the woods as the carcass. which would leave you to apply the first half of bullet 3 ? They actually do mention antlers in the last bullet and the other "head" references are for that purpose. Let's face it. It will not take a rocket scientist DEC employee to count two tenderloins, two back straps, two hind quarters and two front quarters. if they can confirm in some way that you have the meat from the deer you are claiming on the tag you aren't gettign a ticket. Unless you are acting like a goof and then all bets are off and any one of us could have something written against us.

only 5% of the bears have the white crest, so I'm told. -

My taxidermist wanted to trim the feet and head himself. we cut skin to the wrist and took the feet off whole, same to the base of the skull. -

He might make 150 dressed. 150 -200 will be the average sized bear taken. the ones we have gotten were "tubed" as well. Just as described above. We did them hanging once the rear feet were trimmed. At that point we turn inside out. Salt heavily. then salt some more. and when you think you have enough, add more salt. (if you want to save the hide) I lost one due to temps and the hair slipped. bacteria breeds in that fat like gang busters and it is so well insulated it is about impossible to cool quickly enough. So if you are going after bear and want the fur for some purpose, plan ahead. -
I ordered light limbs that I won't be hunting with. I have a lot of practice to do to get my form were I want it. I ordered a cheap practice limb. http://www.3riversarchery.com/sf-archery-axiom-limbs.html?gclid=CjwKCAjwrO_MBRBxEiwAYJnDLD1HNJCv8K29nGYWig7UXJ5w-F8aWQWH8BuauXzGf8xDD_svkrzZ1hoCFLQQAvD_BwE I got these in Long and 28#. Should give me a 64" bow and at my DL, Moog thinks I should be pulling around 35# to 36# with these.

Yeah, I had no idea it was possible either. This is NOT a true DIY since I am hiring much of this and also relying on another member here for assistance. Well here is the backstory. I have an old Darton 600WX that was my Father's compound that he bought new in 1987. The only bow he ever used and he never took a deer with it. I think it was just an excuse to get into the woods earlier with me since I was already bow hunting. Dad was 5'9" and had a draw length of about 27". I am 6'-4" and have a DL of 30-1/2 to 31". When he passed away two years ago I brought his bow home with me. Even with all the modules for the cams it wouldn't make my length and an old bow like that is of little value other than sentiment. The one thing it had going for it was a beautiful laminated wood riser. SO there it sat. Fast forward to a conversation I was having here with Moog5050 about the bow and also about wanting to get into traditional shooting. Well he tossed out the word "Warf'd" and I thought we were going to be talking Star Trek. Turns out it is a process that some are using to modify certain old compound risers to accept ILF recurve limbs. (International Limb Fittings). Moog suggested a forum and I started reading. It became evident that this was something I didn't want to try with Dad's bow and screw it up. I think I could have easily pulled it off but was not worth the risk with his riser. At Moog's recommendation there were two folks on the forum that were the guru's of the warfing. I was able to contact one of them. Gave him some dimensions and the bow model. Sent him a few pics and at this point I could not find any info on the internet where this had been done on that bow specifically. Well he felt it would work and he could make the modifications and install the ILF hardware. I sent it out last week and it is already back in my hands. We waited until we got the finished riser dimensions before addressing the limbs. The following pictures are how the riser was prior to the start of the project.

.410 is a bit light for pheasants. I have knocked feathers off them at 15 yards on the ground and had them fly away. lol. 3" too

Better try that again. Doesn't even make sense.
