It is a weapon. Cuomo is the tool

That is because in NY a slingshot is an illegal weapon...lol

Accman- any real hunter knows it is much more of a challenge to shoot them out the window of a moving vehicle. Negative lead is a hard learned skill set

Great. Strike one right out of the box. Jan and Feb when bucks could have their antlers off. If they are managing the herd numbers they should be targeting does. Strike two- paying for something that could be done for free.

You can not tell this. That year and a half old buck could have better gene potential that the 4.5 year old buck has. and you have no idea of the half the doe will bring into the equation. Any genetic arguments in a wild herd is made for the sake of hearing themselves talk. or thousands of years we have been hunter gatherers. we have taken targets of opportunity. The most gain while expending the least.

Oh for God sakes get off your high horse. What in the HELL are you doing using the METRIC SYSTEM? THis is America!...lol

It isn't open 24/7/365?

If you have 1.5's amd 2.5's that look like that I want to be your new best friend.

I would believe you must have legal rights to do so and if it were to hold up I would bet it has to be in a formal lease and spelled out. Our lease specifically says we have rights to post eh property and control access expect for the owners actuall personnel and operations. . If you actually catch the person in there confrontation is always an iffy proposition. Best to have a witness with you I would think. Pictures are great and I have seen it successfully prosecuted with a photo, and/or a witness.. If people are posting property I would suggest that they really reas up on proper posting of the place. If it isn't done correctly it will not stick. If you catch some one and the property is NOT properly posted you must give them written notice they were trespassing and the second time they are caught on there they can be prosecuted. Much easier to have it posted correctly.

Where are you? would love snow for this weekend!

Cover the half of the glass on the lantern with aluminum foil. It reflects more light forward and doesn't play as much he'll with your night vision

was it a plowed field that he went through?

I double lunged one last night and the blood was a thin coat. barley any on it at all. Was he in a stand and how far away was the shot?

Wood Pecker

Don't worry about them on deer though. The one I took SUnday went through a rib on the near side and through the shoulderblade on the far side. All resharpened and back in the quiver.

Cross section of a deers chest. Yellow would be a typical bullseye heart shot for a level (at the range) type of shot. Green are a couple possibel paths of the arrow from elevated using the same shot on the side of the deer we would shoot at on the level. Purple is an adjusted target point to hit the target IN the middle of the deer. I know many don't even this about this because it is just second nature. Just thought I would throw aout a graphic of what some on here are trying to reinforce.

sounds right to me. at steep angles you are basically taking the top of one lung and the bottom of the other.

Question on the "own property" part. Anyone know if that includes property you lease?

Awesome Grizz.....Congrats. Oh, when is the cook out?

I think 2.5. Front about same size as the hinds.

Ok fess up time....how many got a string or something out and tried it? how did it turn out?

I would lay claim to the stands behind the barn and wait for the does to bring him to you....lol

The main problem I think you have is his patterns have changed and are about to change again. You had him before many of the other food sources came around. now he has a lot of choices out there and he is about to go on the cruise so no telling where he will end up. You obviously are part of his core area so he will still be coming through. Patterns are great for the early season but become more and more difficult as the rut gets closer. Have you seen any scrape activity on the property? Have the does been seen in any of the property on food or travel corridors?

A must have, "MYRADAR" GPS enabled it give you doppler up to date with motion so you can see what is heading your way and you can estimate when it will get to you. Pandora----more music than you can listen too. only a few commercials on the free app. Premium has none. But I only use it when I have wifi so I don't blow through my data limit. get a good flashlight app. comes in handy when you need one but don't have one.

I agree with Eddie. and here is why it is true. New2bow.---try this. take a string or rope or even a tape measure. hold one end in you bow hanf and the other end in your release hand. keep the string tight and hold it just like you are shooting level. Now while still standing up. lower you bow hand like shooting at a target below the stand. what is the string doing in your release hand? does the string pull through your release hand and need to be longer? More tension especially if shooting a bow with no hard back wall will make it shoot higher than on level. Now dothe same thing uphill without bending back. Start level and rasie you bow arm. The string starts to sag. decreasing the draw removes energy in the limbs causing you to shoot lower that on the level. especially with bow without very agressive cams. I think this contributes to the shooting high downhill and shooting low uphill myth. when in realith if you were to have a pin for the EXACT horizontal yardage from the stand you would be right on. But we don't have that many pins. Most start at 20 and that is why that pin needs to be held low.
