DMP's selection available today - What did you get!?
First-light replied to burmjohn's topic in Deer Hunting
Just bought online. Got my landowners permit 8P. -
That is a real good point there Eddie. Got a guy who rips down the gravel road I'm on doing 50 plus. I don't dare send the girls out on the road to ride bikes. Knowing how I could get in a situation like this, calling him out, I don't want my camp trashed when I'm not there.

Yes we did, thanks. Driving home I told the girls it felt like a month we were up there, guess that is always good. -

Yea there are some big doe around this year. Have seen many twin and triplets born. -
Funny I just had to close up a hole in the eve of the cabin. Out came two bats Friday night as we sat by the camp fire. Small opening where two boards meet. Of course it was at the top of the peak and was difficult to fix. Got it done, hopefully they are gone. What do bats do in the winter time? Do they still stay in the area they were in all summer??

If you look at the pictures out in the field I am sitting next to the telephone pole. (part 2)The deer bust me a few time but always come back. That cam was put up in the afternoon and I was there for a while, so much for scent control, lol.

Going up Sunday morning and can't wait. Brother was up last week and saw 3 nice 8 pts enter our field. Want to move a trail cam over to the spot. Have to hang a gutter off the new addition and put in a screen door. Thats all the work I have for a week. looks like it may be cool a couple of days, that will be nice! Going to shoot the bow every day for sure! I'll post some picts when I get back.

Well said Joe. When I as young I was fascinated with the outdoors and the Whitetail became a focal point. I just wanted to learn as much as I could about them. Harvesting one of these animals was icing on the cake. To this day I still get a kick out of watching a doe and her yearlings hanging around my tree stand. At times it is more entertaining than a nice buck that slips by in a few seconds. They are pretty amazing animals. My limit is two deer a year. We use all the meat, nothing goes to waste.

If the deer were in good shape and I thought they could make it through the winter I would let them go. They are usually totally stressed. Do it as quick as possible and hope they make it.

The Expanded Antler Restrictions - Who is excited?
First-light replied to TheHunter's topic in Deer Hunting
I thought about the 1 buck rule. What a bout the total experience of being in the woods all season long. The guy who doesn't get a doe permit is done hunting once he shoots his buck. The money he won't spend the rest of the season??? This may sway these hunter who have tagged out to get kids involved. They will have more time on their hands and want to get back in the woods. It may also drive up hunters using other peoples tags. Sure can see that happening. It wouldn't be a bad place to start but I don't see NY doing this.
