DO you take your boots off before you get in it?

yeah....just let it grow until it burns. Over the last decades how has that "leave the timber alone" approached worked out west? I never remember the amount of fires out there as there are now.

Forgot. You got one of those girly trucks like WNY. (no offense ladies)

You wife cuts up your deer? You are my new hero....lol do you send her for beer before she gets all started?

Bring that bad boy up and we will see.

Thanks. Appreciate it.

yes and yes. problem is the wheel ruts and no room to move left or right. once that frame hangs it is over...lol

Title says it all. I have a mile long, up hill, logging road to make it through to get into camp. When we left Sunday there was 6" and still falling when we left. The recent storm may have washed it away with the rain and then deposited more snow, but I don't think I can make it in with anything over 10" on the ground. Maybe kless if it is frozen and hard. Any insight is appreciated.

I and the guys I hunt with benefit from them as well. Let's be honest though. There are lots of licenses out there for the sole purpose of just getting the ability of a doe tag. It even happened before the sign over was made legal. But why, in your example, should your Uncle who can not go afield, have the ability to pull a tag from someone who is actually hunting. I know guys that only draw on every other year and the surrogate hunters and the does taken with ML and Bows play into that. Just my opinion, and you know wht they say about opinions...lol

LOVED those Activ's. They shot great but the casings didn't hold up to many in and outs of the gun. the extractors took a toll in my auto loaders.

I have no idea. I planned on reading it in detail tonight since I will be hunting this weekend.

In my view the majority of Hunters in NY are gun hunters. shortening that season IMO is a mistake and will effect participation. I am not a fan of our current tag system and would have no problem with every big game hunter getting a single buck tag to utilize in what ever season they want. I also think that the antlerless tags for the special season should go away. Nuisance tags should go away and the entire state should be managed for population control through the DMP lottery system. I think there should be mandatory reporting of tags in a system that is visually verified before next years tags can be issued. If you fill it out and use it then it will be presented prior to the next years tag and recorded. If you don't bring it in you don't get one for next year. Get rid of the signing over of DMP's. .

Must be much better hunters than most of those in NY. Because there harvest totals are basically equal to pus.

If there is a shorter season, you don't think that makes it more difficult for the ones that only get out on weekends? if a hunter hunts the weekends and Thanksgiving. That gives them 9 possible days afield. (if we are talking about regular season which is the majority of NY's deer hunters)

Yup. The same state agency that just sent me an observation log for deer season in the Mail. I got it YESTERDAY!!!. Most of my deer hunting is already done for the season.

Doc1.pdf It appears that even with all this senseless slaughter going on out there the numbers seem pretty up.

I could take you to a couple farms and a nursery and show you deed deer in the woods that are shot and have no portion of the meat taken. That is a thorn in my side. If it is being eaten or donated to hose who will I have no issue with any number legally taken.

I believe NJ is a state with a pretty young age. I think it is like 9 or 10 down there. My Brother in Law looked into it a while back to get his son out earlier than is allowed up here.

What do you think our role is in this sport we take part in? Our role first and foremost is population control. There are still WMU's where the permits have not all been issued to this day. Buddy of mine just went in the other day and picked up more for 8H. Last year the season finished without all the tags being issued for that area. (I believe there were others too). There is a program to donate venison....there are tags to fill.... sounds like a win / win to me. Let's face it, that majority of hunters do not fill their tags for what ever reason. I am very much against wasting any of the deer and that is one thing that burns me about nuisance tags. but if you have a tag and it is going to be used, I say burn 'em up.

probably would be easier to list calibers that wouldn't be on their list. And knowing our Govt. if one is gray, do you think they will include it?

and what do you think the difference is in ammo? How many calibers were developed for military applications first and them adapted for hunting? A lot of them. "well I just hunt with a 308 bolt gun" that is ammo that is chambered for a possible assault weapon. 30-06? yup 223? yup Any Idea how many calibers AR's are made in? That would make everyone of those calibers fall under this whether you are placing them in a bolt gun or single shot.

The same holds true. almost any caliber is made for a pistol. Look at the Encores, Lone Wolfs and other single shot pistols. 22 LR is a pistol caliber. I think the single shot pistols go up to African calibers like the 416 Rigby or maybe higher. So basically this will effect ALL ammo

I don't care if they were taken in Disney World.Bucks that big in the wild are very impressive.

Yup. what is your point?

Awesome buck and great story. It wasn't until I saw the county that I realized it was in OH.

Huh. all these years in NY and they were all doing it wrong.
