  1. Yeah he said he planted yesterday. Do you guys see a problem, let me know and I'll question him.
  2. Here it is. Oats, clover and turnips. In the honey hole surrounded by woods. Deer will feed all day long as long as I get the guys and gals on board how to approach the plot.
  3. Hunt more hours. The last two years I have spent as little as 6 days in the woods. I own the woods this year!
  4. When I was younger, going back into my early 20's seeing deer and shooting a big racked deer were top priorities. Heck if you shot a big one it was hung on display for all to see. You received praise about your accomplishment which meant you were a good hunter. It felt good, looked good and meant everything to bagging that big one. Now at the age of 54 I could give a hoot about all that. It's me against them. I put in my home work and hopes it pays off. I don't need to hang a big one for everyone to see it just brings attention and trespassers!
  5. After giving this much thought I'm going to hold off right now. I was quoted a price of $4500 for a 30x40 pond, banks seeded and fish included. I was thinking 3-3500 for that size pond. My final thought is to hold off until I can afford a much bigger pond. Spend the extra money and really have something worth it.
  6. I used something similar in the bathroom in my cabin. It's 7 years old and looks great also water tight!
  7. Thanks for the info! I won't use the pond to hunt over. We have water on the bottom side of my property that keeps the critters watered! Just have to see how much it will cost then I'll decide.

  9. I have always wanted to add a pond within view of my cabin to my property. Want to stock it with bluegill and bass. be big enough to swim in and skate on in the winter. My brother inlaw has a bunch on his farm and they all vary in size. Any suggestions would be great. FL
  10. On Long Island we see that. Long curly hoofs, kinda gross looking.
  11. While driving down through the Catskills just above Roscoe I saw this awesome buck. He was so far along creating horn I couldn't believe it. had at least 4 on each side he was very wide and tall. Will he grow through August or is he just an rely starter and taper off while others still grow? He was a sight to see!
  12. Hang a cam off the bumper to catch the guy! lol
  13. Set the trap and nail him or her.
  14. On the Island the tick problem is huge along with a huge population. With that said I can say I know only a handful of people that got lime disease. There are some towns out east that have feeding stations that have a spay that hits the deer when they feed. I don't know how good it works though. I do know one thing we do have is a very liberal deer tag amounts especially for doe.
  15. Here on Long Island you can cruise some nice neighborhoods on Sunday evenings and find all sorts of great stuff. People throw out stuff that works, just want it gone. Power equipment is the best.
  16. God bless all our fallen heroes.
  17. My U 13 daughter spent the weekend in jersey at the EDP spring tournament. They came away winners going 4-0 winning their bracket! A great weekend for dad and Daughter.
  18. Probably try the low ball offer. Guy said he wanted $3500 when I was walking away. Lets see what happens next week…….
