  1. I take down the hang on stands, two at that. The ladder stands stay up but like FSW said loosen the straps.
  2. He still has that recliner on his front porch.........
  3. It's pretty cool to see how excited you are about this. Please post pictures of the mount. I have plenty of bear around my camp just never shot one. When the day comes I want to do the right mount or rug.
  4. Let's just say it's pretty much a perfect habitat do you think the ratio in correct. 1.5 1 fawn 2.5 older 2 fawns?
  5. Very nice, enjoy the Holidays everyone!
  6. There is the right way and the Bubba way, get used to it! lol
  7. Sorry to hear this Paulie. It puts everyone in a bad position. The Dad should know better, especially with his kid in tow. You never can be too safe out there.
  8. Forgot to ad this point about does and fawns. Is it safe ti assume that a 1.5 year old doe will have just one fawn? The first time she is bred I always thought 1 fawn. Now if that's the case the does I see with two and sometimes three fawns are 2.5 and older?
  9. Dave, I should say Gramps-congrats!
  10. Ok- we are all hung up on AR's and deer management. When is the last time you harvested a 3 year old doe? I think I have never gotten one. Most of mine are yearlings or 1.5 year olds. I guess what i"m saying is we don't specifically target does. One would think they would age and we would see an older class of animal. We get our doe permits and fill them when we can. Do you guys understand what I'm getting at??? Why aren't there more 3-4 year old does running around.
  11. I'm over in 8P. I think the deer heard is in decline. The boys next to me did not see, and this goes for last year, the deer they used to see. This is 12 guys hunting 190 acres. My property did not see the level of does this year. We did manage to harvest 3 deer that go a long way to feeding our families. Better luck next year I guess.
  12. I just have to say one more thing. Last year I stated that I don't bring my girls 12 and 7 to camp during gun season. This was for safety reasons, some guys gave me a bad time about it, over reacting. This accident and the one where a rifle was fired at 500 yards from the bus only only to hit it full of children put my reasons to rest.
  13. This is horrible. I was walking in with my gun this weekend and said lets shoot to clear the rounds. My brother in law said no way just take the primer out and push it through. That's what I did. God bless that little girl.
  14. Geno, 4 years ago i was in the same situation. I was thinking about foundations, driveway, covert pipes and so on. I hooked up with a local builder and he did a great job framing out my cabin. He built a 20 by 24 cabin on pilings, put in a 100' driveway for a real goo price. I also looked at woodtex buildings which was my second option. PM me if you want more info, this was up in the Corning area.
  15. Living up to his name!! Nice job Doe.
  16. Way to go Buck, we'll start calling you Jim Shockey!
  17. The dead 6 pt. Trying to attach image and it wont work. when you attach it just spins and spins. 1 more try
  18. Hey, Just got in, would of been in by 5 but there was an accident under the apartments on the xbronx and was standing outside the truck for 45 minutes until they cleared it. Met my brother in law on Saturday at the cabin and we hunted from 2 until dark and saw nothing. went out this morning in 12 degree temps and also saw nothing. It was great ending up the season hunting with my brother in law, we had a great time. Found this 6 point dead on the property. Not too far from the road, the yotes did a number on him. Could not tell the cause of his demise! A great season for Team Legend! We accounted for 1 NY bow buck, 1 Ohio bow buck, 4 NY gun bucks and 1 NY gun doe. I just had some Italian sausage from the doe I got, it was great! Ready for bed I'm beat.............
  19. Getting ready to leave, one more cup of coffee and I'm gone! See ya Sunday night!
  20. I did that last year, got up there around 4 in the morning and hunted all day and half day Sunday. I ended up with pneumonia. Saw a bunch of deer and shot a few times had a ball!! Sucks I had to stay home from work the following week.lol
