ha! reminds me f when i was working up to fort drum. one of the guys wouldnt stop parking next to the crane, so we set his car on a snow bank with the lull. ill have to find that pic. classic shenanigans

id rip it down, and happily return it in pieces. thats just me though.

snowblower broke . Had to fix it. blew auger all apart. kids used all my gas up. Got it up and running to just run outta gas. God i hate the first snowfall up here.

only dmp's can be transferred.

i always ask myself that too....... got about the same here. ill have the snowblower bellering today. gotta get the woodstove blazing in the garage first and foremost tho. get the snowshoes out.

agreed

exactly. one deer is not worth your family struggling the rest of their life, and losing ur own.

always a good experience here

depends on the tree as well. hemlock, locust, poplar, cherry, maple, ash....... no matter how big, and how whatever, they still break in the wind. See it every day. safer on the ground. not every tree will fall, but you never know if the one you are in will fall.

you can bring a friend, but cannot assist in the hunt. unless licensed ofcourse.

i was thinking the same thing.

get out of the tree. Its safer to sit on the ground.

someone has to want these 8n tags........... i dont wanna trade, im just sending them to a new home.

Well, I hung that new stand I posted earlier in the week. Sat that evening, and had the spike, he got spooked off. Next morning, saw a nasty 8 point not 15 yards from my stand, followed by a 3 point, then a 4 point(ironically) then a doe. Last night.......... frigging crazy. road hunters everywhere, people partying in a house that we lease out, and the cows got loose so everybody was running trucks and fourwheelers and just being crazy. I was pissed. my girlfriend told me to slide out, and go to one my other spots, but by the time i got out of there and drove to my closest spot it would have been dark. So i waited it out....... At 5:00, i hear BOOM! To close to comfort. Hear a diesel truck start and a wooooohoooo, truck take off, then another shot. I ran out of the stand, saw the truck, but couldnt get anything but red truck diesel. I was pissed right off, and sat at the general area I heard the shot, and no one came around. Anything that close, was our land. Not happy. So, decided to take a morning off, hang with the kids, family, do a few chores. Have thanksgiving dinner, and sit at that stand just because I had a feeling it would be alot more quite. (Thanksgiving is a free meal for the worthless roadhunters) So, at 3:35, I was at thet stand. Walking in, Im hearing dogs barking, people hooting and hollering, and im saying wtf, and other colorful words....., but decide to get in there, and wait it out. At 415, I hear some brushing, then Spike shows up. He got spooked, ran back in the swamp, and 3 doe walk out where he ran in. I took the biggest of the 3, at a meer 286 yards. All tags filled but muzzleloader. Good day for me. Oh yeah, it was over a one mile drag, then a half hour ride back home. She scaled out at 132 lbs dressed. What a fat ass.

Awesome buck! Great story, glad you got the hog! Happy t-day!

that would finish my garage off nicely. woud never have to go in the house.

i take my youngsters as much as i can, and others as well. its an awesome experience, and i love every second of it.

less than 3 inches you can use a dmp.Note: Deer Management Permits (DMPs) and Deer Management Assistance Program (DMAP) permits are for antlerless deer. Bucks with antlers less than 3 inches long are not considered legally antlered deer and may be taken using a DMP or DMAP permit. Additionally, Bonus DMPs are valid for antlered or antlerless deer. Adult deer are ≥1.5 years old. Fawn deer are <1 year old

id take it in a minute if you were closer. never any good deals like that up here. wtf.

i have an 8n up for grabs. if u want it pm me.

very nice bucks. nice job.

After I took the rug rats to school this morning, I decided to hang the new stand I got at a little spot I havent hunted in quite some time. Sat in it tonight, and within 15 minutes a spike came out, I took a picture thru my binos, but, I think it may be a good spot. Was in the past. All i have is a doe tag left, and muzzleloader, so we will see what happens.
