  1. Hey folks, Just got in this afternoon. Had a great weekend with my girls. Most important thing was that Twin Kiss ice cream shop was open Saturday night!!!! Love their ice cream. Heard a few Tom's Saturday and Sunday morning. Got some work done and picked up the two mounts we had done at DJ's custom taxidermy in Bath NY. I couldn't be happier with the results. I had the wall pedestal mount done and my nephew had a semi sneak done. Both look amazing. The panoramic picture is in my trophy room with my 4 biggest bucks. He fits right in! Enjoy…… BTW my Nephews buck has a full black chin that we never noticed until DJ pointed it out.
  2. Doc, I'm in Howard, Steuben county. I've posted pictures of the place in previous threads. I'll take some more this weekend.
  3. Will be leaving LI around 1 and hope to be on the front porch by 7! Picking up my 2 girls from school and headed for a weekend of RnR. Just going to change out the blades on the mower and spray the driveway with ground clear and kick back! Oh did I say we are picking up the two mounts Saturday afternoon…..knew I was leaving something out. Can't wait to see the pedestal mount I had done and my Nephews 8pt. Enjoy the weekend folks! Two picts below are the deer that were mounted.
  4. If you didn't state all sales are final I would give the refund.
  5. 1st are always special. Looks good enjoy it!
  6. Nice video! Did you shoot him a second time or was the first shot lethal?
  7. Thank you all, it was a wonderful day!
  8. That is pretty cool. We have one like that in Northport. It's on land that was donated to the town. You wouldn't know the cemetery is in there. Its off one of the trails and the town put a plaque on a large rock. It lists all the early settlers names youngest to oldest. Most headstones fell over or were vandalized. It's a neat place with a giant oak tree right in the middle.
  9. Find out where they have other solar farms and go talk to the lease owners there. I'm in a wind lease and did such a thing and it was very informative.
  10. That's dinner for tonight!
  11. I have used it and the results were good. Deer really like it so give it a shot.
  12. Sorry for your loss.
  13. Went with my buddy, his daughter and mine. We were in Cablevisions suite. It was amazing being right behind the bench and the suite was out of this wold! Something we will always remember!
  14. Beer and stadium food at the Ranger game tonight! We are sitting right behind the bench in Dolans suite!! Two middle aged guys with their two daughters, can't miss us!!!
  15. X-bows don't bother me one bit. In fact I see myself using one down road at some time. If someone wanted to hunt my property with one it would be fine. You will always have some newbies harvesting big deer their first few times out. I wouldn't look down on this as taking away my chance to get a big one with my bow. I would be thankful this hunter was able to harvest the deer without wounding it. My wall will have a spot one day for a deer that was killed with the x-bow and it won't feel or look any different than the ones up there to date.
  16. First off go out and buy a lot of patience! Second wear clothes that are comfortable and suited for temps and precipitation. Practice in these clothes when shooting especially the jacket you will be wearing. Lastly have fun, It's mostly a waiting game but if you put in your time scouting you could shorten the wait! GL
  17. Just today http://money.cnn.com/2016/03/29/investing/earthquakes-fracking-usgs-oil-gas/index.html?iid=hp-toplead-dom
