  1. I agree with you, Good points, VJP. To bluntly put it, what are the odds of you getting to your loaded gun to use it to defend yourself? What are the odds of someone breaking into your house in a case you would need the gun? What are the odds that two unsupervised children find your unsecured loaded weapon in your home? For me it's a game I don't want to play.
  2. Just my opinion, but once years ago I had fat added to the chop meat and it changed the taste. I will never have anything added to the meat, it tastes and cooks just fine.
  3. Yeah Burt, I seen 'em. I'll get him tonight. Spaghetti on cake?? ??? I'm a pollock but I aint that Polish. Funny, just for decorations I mean. I'm half polish, we good hunters!
  4. Happy birthday Wooly, did you see the big one in the brush? Is that spaghetti on top?
  5. To have a loaded gun in the house not locked up is simply irresponsible, especially when children are present. All the training in the world won't help these situations, kids are curious creatures.
  6. It's nice in the burbs but in the City this much snow is not good. I'm off all week and don't have to travel in the City. Tthe snow turns so gross and dirty in a couple of days.
  7. Yea, about a foot by me in East Northport maybe more. I'm off all week so Let it snow let it snow let it snow.
  8. Good point Bubba. We have picts of real nice bucks on our trail cam every year that nobody harvests. It makes you wonder where all these monsters roam. They are there and I for one don't think AR is the answer. We need to do a bit more hard hunting and stop depending on technology giving us the edge. I laugh all the time at the crap all these companies put out, "the buck bomb" give me a break! You here of one guy scoring with the product and it goes viral. Let's just get back to the basics and forget about all the crap they shove down our throats. It really makes me wonder where this all is going.
  9. Great job-looking forward to the video. Seems like you guys have a real good production team behind you, good editing!
  10. I don't have the numbers but what type of role does the out-of-state hunter play into the NY season. What I mean is how many OOS hunters come to NY to hunt? I've posted this before but my neighbor has 11 relatives that come from down south, I know from asking them about half would jump ship if AR's were put in place. Lost revenue and less guys in the woods pushing deer but until I know the numbers I don't have an accurate # of OOS hunters. By the wat these guys are only in the first two weeks of season at best. So a shorter season would not affect them. I think the season is pretty good the way it is but I'm always willing to hear an argument and if need be implement change.
  11. My brother bought the PSE Stnger kit for $300, worth checking out. I like this bow for a beginner, very quite and forgiving.
  12. My brother and I love it too. He told me he has 30 packs of ground venison! My girls are so excited that we have meat again. Whenever they are here we cook some up!
  13. Why, why, why we ask. Maybe it was road hunters who poached the deer and were not able to find it for one reason or another. Too big of a deer to give up on by a decent hunter that would sway me to think some incompetent poacher did this.
  14. I agree with you Steve, put the x-bow in during bow season and muzzleloader season. It won't hurt my bow hunting experience one bit. Sure you will have some guys switch over and use the x-bow but I think it will be minimal. The guy who shoots a huge buck with the x-bow will get my congratulations and a hand shake. We all know each weapon brings a level of difficulty in trying to harvest a deer. The sooner the x-bow is in bow season the better off we will be as a group. Leave the season length as is and give the x-bow its due and be done with it.
  15. I would have to say leave it be. Pressure would not be any different from a 3-4 week season. Those of us that have to travel some distance to deer camp need that 4th week. I enjoy hunting with a muzzleloader but not everyone does. Taking away a week from the majority (gun hunters) doesn't work for me.
  16. Guys, My neighbor called me and we were talking about muzzleloading and he said along with your muzzleloader tags if you didn't use your regular season buck tag it could be used in muzzleloader season for either sex. Never knew this and I checked for myself and it's in the handbook. So this year I could of shot any combination of 3 deer but out of the 3 only 2 could of been bucks. If I didn't have my problems with the powder and rear site I could of accomplished this. Not that I needed to but opportunity did present itself.
  17. No I don't, but they have to be some where around 3 feet tall. Thanks for the info.
  18. 2 week ML season sounds great but you'll have to pry the scope from my hands. I'm open sites challenged.
