7th Annual Banquet
Culvercreek hunt club replied to Culvercreek hunt club's topic in Greater Rochester Southern Tier QDMA
Anyone that has attended our banquets knows that we have what we call a "Table Raffle". If you haven't--- The way it works--- There is an envelope on each table with the table number on it. There are spaces to write in up to 8 names. In order for an envelope to be valid in the raffle it must contain $160. With a table of 8 that is $20 per person and there are 8 prizes (all the same prize). Last year the winning table had 4 people and each person put in $40. They each took home two drones. A random number is drawn from the entered table numbers and the names on that envelope are the winners. Previous years we have had spotting scopes, trail cameras, chainsaws, and the drones. This year we have an AWESOME set of prizes. These have been used by members of the banquet committee and have gotten rave reviews. This year we will have 8- IconX battery operated heated vests by PUMA Outdoors. We will have an XL and an XXL on hand the night of the event. If that is your size, great. if it isn't don't worry. We will be giving out gift card good for one vest, shipping and tax included. That is a $180 prize. On a single charge you can keep your core warm with over 6 hours of 100 degree heat (low setting). Additional batteries are available for purchase on the website. https://www.pnumaoutdoors.com/shop-now/new-arrivals-hunting-outdoor-gear-pnuma-outdoors/iconx-heated-core-vest -
I am a numbers kind of guy. I see a CNN article citing 50,000 illegal Irish in the entire country. Another independent authority believes the number to be 10,000-15,000. This is based on "research data provided by the American Community Survey, a major study conducted by the US census bureau each year". The Boston Globe cites studies that Greater Boston alone has 170,000-180,000 illegal immigrants (12th ranked city for highest numbers). Migration Policy Institute shows these as the top demographics for Mass. Top Countries of Birth El Salvador 22,000 13% Brazil 19,000 11% Guatemala 15,000 8% China 13,000 7% Dominican Republic 9,000 5% I'd be curious to read that article if you can point me in the right direction. Does't show in results when I am searching.

I watched an video of the boarder agents telling about how many came in the previous week in their one small area. That was during Trump's visit to the border. You may have seen it. Where Trump tells the agent to "tell them" referencing the media on hand. I was shocked at the number that came across the southern border that weren't even from Central or South American countries.

Another thing to really consider is the humidity level in your homes. Ideally 40-50% in the winter heating months. May have to be a bit lower if you are prone to condensation on your windows. Moist air feels warmer at the same temp. Just like dry air feeling cooler at the same temp in the summer.
-
The statistics that I have seen for the areas with a wall on the border do not support you comment. Just the opposite actually. Have you seen any of the videos of vast areas of the border that literally have NO barrier at all. I agree that you are never going to stop it all and until you remove the incentive to come here illegally it won't stop. BUT, there has to be something done to secure the areas where they can just stroll across. There needs to be some resistance, some barrier.

you can't beat a small electric slicer for cutting the jerky.

BTU's are BTU's. If your heat loss equal the heat added you won't get any hotter. But if this is a new issue then there might be something wrong.

Coyotes on coyote attack

To be honest I find that disturbing and it makes me feel uncomfortable. I typically have a stronger stomach but this one just hits me wrong. -
7th Annual Banquet

We typically always have a square game for some type of saw. In the past it has been pole saws or chain saws. This year we are giving it a bit of a different spin. Milwaukee 18V M18 Fuel Li-ion Cordless Chainsaw This will be a special bonus package and will have 2 of the high capacity batteries instead of just one. (Includes the charger) -

I'll be showing some of the prizes or auction items as we get closer. Here is one gun that will be on a special game. -
without a boundary like a fence (or a wall...lol) it has to be posted properly
-
Did you read what you posted? If it is not posted and you have not served notice there will be NO ticket issued. Count on it.
-
If you are sure your property is posted legally (properly) you shouldn't even need to go through the certified notification process. If caught on it you will be able to have them arrested. I'd go the sheriff route.

just like running rabbits. may times with a shotgun with birdshot.

You create a path to citizenship for those that have value. If you are here and do not have a marketable trade, do not have means to support yourself or family, have a criminal record- you get the boot. It's unrealistic to say we are going to take them out all at a one time. You remove them as they present themselves or the authorities come across them. The easiest way is to have them remove themselves. You do that buy removing any incentive to stay. No health care, no social programs, no more sanctuary. The big nut is we need to take the anchor baby issue head on and as soon as RBG takes a dive and we get another SCOTUS appointment this should happen. I am sick of having illegals present themselves for work, we run the paperwork and find it is not consistent with the Fed Records and they are illegal and have either forged ID or another person's ID and the Government doesn't want to do a damn thing. I could have them sitting right in front of me or one of our managers and no agency wants to act.

I thought I would link the report that QDMA makes available for free download on their site. It looks at harvest trends across the whitetail range, QDMA mission, initiatives and goals. It discusses some of the health concerns that exist for the whitetail. and many more whitetail topics. It also discusses the organization's financial report. For two years running they have received the highest rating available for use of funds. This 4 star rating means putting the funds into programs as compared to overhead. It is a big report and LOTS of data. Hope you enjoy the read. https://www.qdma.com/2019-whitetail-report/ There is also access to previous years reports.

wheelers are no different than cars. make you deal without any mention of a trade in and get the best pricing you can. THEN deal with the trade ins. Otherwise they will be just moving cost from one pocket to the other. There is a reason some car dealers are offering $4,000 for any trade, push , pull or drag it in. You really aren't getting $4,000 on that trade in. If you already had a good deal done on the wheeler and then they offered you the $2,500 on the sled I wouldn't let the ink dry on that offer and I'd do it.
