Cprsailor I hunt just out side of Mayville. I live In Texas and try to get up there once during the summer and once during the hunting season Bow.

Man that does suck when people can't read ( posted signs ). I have never had a blind stolen but I had a camera taken once but he was caught because the dum **s went right by another camera he didn't know of. Next time just put a infrared camera on a tree above your blind that should help you out. I hope you explained to your daughter that only a small % of people not true hunters are that way. all the best to you.

SteveB Maybe in New york its a pet but down south 700 bls hogs are taken yearly and we get to hunt hogs year round we have farel, russian and javelins the javelins have a season. I didn't even think feral or russian hogs where in New york. I will tell ya'll if you have farel hogs kill them they will tare your food plots up and land. Russians (pure) arne't as bad but they will cross bread.

nice ten looks mature to that the kind of deer to take. congrats

I use a win. 140 gr. silver bulistic tip short mag in my .270 browning It has the best accuracy i found so far. shot a cayote at 350 yds last year it droped dead in its tracks. and for the deer I shot with it never had a deer go more then 2-3 yrds.

check with your DEC that the story. They intriduced them to control the population of turkeys. Thats what I read after being told about it they where intriduced to NY some years ago can't remember the exact year. but read up on it. I belive extend the seasons or the bag limit for turkey and for cayotes whare i live in texas thay are used for live target practise

first pic look just lioke a mangy cayote see this time to time ware i hunt

Hope everybody has a great thanksgiving and some good hunting is done. For me I am in Egypt working so no thanksgiving dinner or hunting for me. Have a good one

[table] [tr] [td] Congratulations on your buck. [/td][/tr][/table]

I took this buck on my yearly hunting trip I do in Chautuaqua county. I took a week and hunted my property in NY I hunted up there the last week of October and it turned in to sucsses. I had been hunting for five days and seen a lot of yuong bucks and some does was not able to get a shoot at any of the doe. I got set up in the stand by 300 pm on friday 29-oct-2010 and grunted a couple of times. about 3 minutes later I see a deer coming through the pines. I was this 11 point. He was about 30 yards from and making tracks my way. I got my bow and ranged him at 25 yards and about three steps later i let my axis st fly It hit him just behind the should and went strait back and about 4" of arrow was sticken out of him he took off past me and 300 hundred yards later I found him on the edge of 5 ac. swamp. it was a great feeling once i foud him i was vary pleased. he wt. 173 bbl fuild dressed and a hundred and thirty five inches rough score. I will have him re measured in december / january for final. I hope this is how I am suppose to enter pick for contest. I hope every one has a good year and be sucsesfull

I see its going to be short this year on DMP tags this year

Here's one for ya'll I am a animal lover I love to grow them hunt them kill them eat them

I don't know anti hunters are the most problem they have nothing better to do and they are the first to complain about animals eating there plants or running out in front of them while driving dum asses

Ok let's just getter done contest it should be. Eveybody play fair now

It sounds like a managment profane needs to be put in place extend the seasons and bag limits. Don't put coyote or other preditors in the mix. You probably have something like we do in Texas it call hunters hunting for the hungry a donation programe the land owner gets a tax brake for each deer donated.

Introducing coyotes to the population in was one of the stupidist things the state has done. Way would some people want to put a preditor in place of a hunter. From what I understand stNd on this is that they wanted to reduce the turkey population. There's better ways one just of the top my head is extend the season or bag limits. I guess that just would make to much sence way give th hunter the upper hand.

I am employed by a off shore company my position is a barge master.just for those that don't know what this is it lake a capt. I am presantly located inthe med. Of the cost of Egypt. I am on my way home right know.I work 28 days on and 28 days off

If you want a good herd you need take does this is a fact proven if you want to see a lot of deer sub standered let the does live and if you would like to see more muter bucks let the young bucks walk and shot the doe just make sure they are do this is a proven managment practice AR is put inplace so that it gives the buck more of achance to muter it also makes the hunter more aware of what he/she is shooting. Doewaker I bet you see some nice bucks each year because of you hunting prictice DOE WAKIN

I have had several scopes over the past 20 years but the last 10 have been BURRIS. The scope's price from around $190-$1100. They are very durable, great glass and have good low light transmit collecting (95%). Water proof, fog proof and they have a double shock cylinder making them vary reliable for impact resistant. The Scopes that are around the 190 mark are Burris full field 2 and usually come with ether a set of binoculars or a spotting scope I am not say the spotting scope or binoculars are top of the line but they do work and for the most part anything under two hundred yards is vary viewable. Personally I am looking at getting a black diamond.

.Burmjohn, Actually my wife gave it to me for a Christmas present this past year.

I have an ATV it’s a Yamaha grizzly don't have any pic’s on hand. But here is a pic of one of my new implements. This is a DR brush mower electric start anti kick blades. It is awesome it will cut brush up to 2 in. in diameter. I will see about getting some pics of my ATV.

I have several rifles and some shot guns but my all time favourite and mostly use is a Browning .270 short mag. medallion. This is probable one the most accurate and sweetest gun I have ever shot. I have Burris 3x9x40 scope mounted on it all my guns and my kids guns have Burris scopes very reliable. I use a silver ballistic tip 130 gr. I have never, so far had anything run after I have shot. pic attached

I think it brings a person closer to nature. The practice, the ups and downs are far greater then hunting with a rifle and the patients needed make it all more of a challenge. I like a challenge

I'm game. Ya'll have a upper hand already. I only get a week or so during early bow season to harvest a deer.

Doc, Agree with you I own property in New York and it does suck that we as land owners need to go to this extent to keep people out I think that posted sighs are an eye sore. But because people don't show respect that is what it has come to. I hunt Texas as you may know from some of my other replays. We do not have posted sighs the lands for the most part are low fenced. and that is the property line you just don't cross them. Plus it can turn in to a major fine for the trespasser if caught. About 80 to 90 % of the land in Texas is privately owned so for the most part if you don't own land you will have to lease it and the prices vary it big business in Texas. And very strict hunting rules depending on the owner.
