  1. With the good buck I have on trail cams in the south property I will be bow hunting on Sat and Sunday. But Sinday night I am heading up North to ML hunt Monday and Tuesday. Good luck everyone!!
  2. My answer was for the original shotgun VS muzzleloader. I live in shotgun area and since i have gotten my muzzleloader i have not put the rifled slug barrel on my shotgun. I do all treestand hunting on that property. My camp and up north are Rifle areas and I carry my ought 6 there.
  3. Do we have to move this to the Argument forum??
  4. Sorry Typo----FUBO...and just google it or "spell" it and you will get it...LOL
  5. Outdoor----What time did this happen?
  6. Hey Sits----I was reading Sunday night as Sunday NIGHT. Seems odd the way they bolted
  7. Pictures of roadkill???? Darn Eddie....we have to get you an off season hobby...lol
  8. A post i made earlier sparked a memory of a strange hunt I had up North and was wondering if others had similiar encounters. Here is mine. I hut a 225 acre piece in the northern zone. It is my uncles land. My father and I are the only ones that hunt it....besides the occasional trespasser. 2 weeks into gun season I was still hunting to my Dad (Keep in mind we hunted the entire previous week and I covered some ground that week too). All of a sudden I come across some wrist sized trees cut down by a chain saw. I started looking right away for a stand someone had put up. Since I was in a total hunting mind set, you can imagine my surprise to find myself standing in a PVC netted enclosure with miracle grow cartons strewn around the place. Now I am just a redneck kid and must hae not gotten out much growing up but It took me about 10 minutes to realize I was standing in the middle of a harvested pot field. There were probably 70 -80 plants in there all about 3 feet high that had had the tops already cut off. I have no idea how long it had been since they were harvested but I got a cold shiver thinking what might have happened if I had gotten up there for some early season scouting---which I hadn't that year. I came across 2 other areas all set up the same on that property. probably about 200 plants or so. I went and saw my uncle and he calle dthe cops and they came out that night and asked me to show them the area in the morning. They were a little surprised at the size of the operation. and suggested the next year if we scouted we may want to carry during our scouting. I know nothing about this but the cops said they would have estimated, from what they saw, that is could have been a $200,000 crop. Spooky crap!!
  9. I have a FIBO sticker on my truck, Steve. I certainly hope I won't be swaying you opinion into a support mode on that subject...LOL
  10. On the bright side...may have put enough fear in them that they won't be back...fingers crossed for ya
  11. Darn Solon---last two topics we lined up on the same side...lol...people are gonna talk. Back on the subject though---I do find it alarming that these clowns would buy equipment and take it right out. benefit of the doubt though?....could they have said "I only have 6 arrows and am going to camp for a week and better pick up some backups"...I would hope so...but doubt it
  12. I would love to see that being the case. I never really coon hunted...went once and the whole getting slapped in the cold face with branches thing lost it's appeal quickly...lol. There is a lot of land there so who knows. maybe is he runs to lowere fields al ot it may help us out...lol
  13. I bet there are a lot of them. Quit a few guys are nto into the whole "book" status thing. 3 years ago I saw a guy dragging one out and it was an enormous 17 point no typical. 3 main beams and I thought WOW...gonna see that one in the papers....he cuts himself and mounts nothing. A box full of antler guy from what I am told. Never heard a peep about it. I was kicking myself for not having my phone with me that day. would of loved to get a pic of that one
  14. Well if any of you guys have a few 150's running around on your property and want them removed...just drop me a line and I will get that "problem" taken care of for you in short order
  15. I was down to my camp this weekend. I drove around the big block my land is in.......no standing corn in the entire vally (for 2 miles in all directions)..It has all been cut....I am so freaking excited I can hardly control myself...lol
  16. Sits---I know of 3 hunters that took them in the Tully area and they saw a lot more....piglets too!!
  17. I agree with the language and dimeanor that hunters use...we need to police our selves. I do disagree with the point of not wearing camo though. I am not ashamed of my sport and have no problem with anyone knowing i partake in it. I will have it on after I hunt and go into a restaurant...etc. .....not going to garb up for a trip to the store but I won't change if I am out. I mean heck.....can't be worse than the crotch of you pants at your knees, the crack of your butt hanging out or a baseball hat on sideways...lol
  18. Agreed Steve----and the possibility of having a poaching situation escalating to a shoot out is very real. You hae no idea what the guys are into that you are approaching. Who knows. THey could have a little "garden" planted out there and heading for a harvest.
  19. Fantail----I remember growing up the old man taking me small game hunting when he could have been deer hunting instead. There is a lot of stuff open right now. especially up north. Not justifying anything....just saying.... I just found out a guy in the valley below my camp is running training on coons right now too.....hope he keeps the dogs low or he'll be running every deer off the hill
  20. I googled the name and this came up for 2008----I think I need to hide in this guys packpack...lol http://www.xtreme-hunts.com/photo_gallery/view_picture.php?picture=004_4.jpg&category=2008%20Harvest%20Photos
  21. Yee protesteth to loudly, Brutus"...lol Seemed like a logic conclusioin to ask if it is NY since this IS a NY forum.
  22. My personal observations and opinion---I believe the food, water and cover are their primary focus while up and moving. While wind may play a role in their movements, when they are hungry they are moving from their prefered cover to the food source of the week. I think wind plays a bigger role in their bedding and I can't count the number of times I have seen them bedded with their backs to the wind (probably as a break and to take advantage of scent movement). In the norther zone I hunt fairly hilly areas. the west wind almost always has them bedded just over or on the rim of the east facing slopes. In these type of areas I think the convection currents of the daily cycle also come into play for their bedding preference. I find them with the wind at their backs facing what they can't smell
  23. I guess anything "could be"...this however, I doubt.
