a life Monday-Friday…………...

chop or ground same thing.

What was up with the meat that made it unpalatable?

We won ours in a Pub raffle this year. Can't beat it and it's a real nice fresh tree.

I get to bed early 9-10 each night. I usually wake up at 2 am every night. If I want to sleep through the night I take a half pill of the PM advil/tylenol. Works for me..

Just relieved last number could you believe we got 8!!!! So we have 7 and 8 we will all hunt together opening day!!

Just found out an 11 point and a big wide 8 pt were killed by me opening day. Could be the 8 in my avatar????

If this was public land I see no problem going in and looking for the wounded deer. If I saw a truck parked there I would be quite and respectful while looking for the deer. Now if this is in the controlled areas out east on LI I would of told the check in station what was going on to warn hunters in that area you were looking for a deer. We have property in the Finger lakes that has the "White trail" going through it. This is a hiking trail open year around. I have been in my stand at prime time and have had hikers walking through. Shi# happens when land is open to the public.

Update we have 07, 480 and 705.

Still time left Eddie.......

Hang ons come in, ladders stay out. Loosen up the straps and leave them where they stand.

Kale greens smothered in sardines. Then I'll go coon hunting and they will come running to me….lol

I can do the 50 yard dash in………...

Hey I was going to do this today but forgot. We had 5 people put in their names. So far we got number 7!!!!!!! and number 705. 3 others haven't checked the mail yet. Great idea on joining up with someone. Right now we have pairs going out but will keep everyone posted. BTW last year we went down on standby after the first week and always got in.

I would shoot it no problem. I was almost bitten by a doe one year while slitting the throat. Could you imagine doing that to a buck and he blasts out with one last bit of energy and spikes you with one of his tines.

Amazing deer.

Hey Grow, Just be careful on the slippery stuff around outside. You don't need to fall to screw up your knee. Best of luck!

The doe I shot was the biggest out of 7 under my stand opening day. Two of the critters were button bucks sparring with each other. I'm sure some off those deer were her offspring. They were old enough to take care of themselves. no problem with taking her. I do understand the other side of the coin with this, we are all different.

Expect the unexpected .

You'll be dancing in no time!!! Good luck.

Bear looked out of shape and you can see when he was in the snow, laying there, he was smoking a cigar………probably eats at a dump every night.

Cool information guys!

Man is he tall. Must be hard to hide those horns, been doing a good job! Could you imagine those things sticking up in the middle of a golden rod field, wow! Good luck!

Good luck Geno! (one less crazy LI driver on the road)
