  1. I would suggest Syracuse to Rochester areas. I work at a hospital in Otsego county and while it is a nice area I would not be moving there.
  2. OK....I admit it......I'm a bit confused. It seems there were other motives behind this thread. Anyway, congrats of the successful harvest of a nice deer. It certainly has a bigger rack than the spike. Funny thing is though I can still smell it frying in the pan but can't tell the difference between the two. LOL!
  3. Lawdwaz, Did you take that buck this season. If so......congrats on the success. I can smell him in the pan sizzling away right now. Yum! Peace
  4. Thank you for the input folks. I have quite a bit time off soon, and while to pains me to use any of my hard earned hunting time to go on a trip away from home, I think I'll go on the interview. They seem like real good people, smart, friendly, and it looks like a very tempting proposition. It is helpful that you all are giving the state the thumbs up. I appreciate your help with this, again thanks.
  5. WOW!!!! BigGuyNY.................I thought you pulled your own post!! The post I wrote I pulled myself because it looked like I was talking to myself without yours being there. LOL! You mean to tell me that with all the mud slinging, bad language, and name calling that is all over this site your post was pulled within minutes of being posted. Your post is clean although provocative but not crossing any line that I could see. You must have hit a nerve someplace. By he way I kept what I wrote and will likely post it elsewhere on this site at some later date, with some modification so it does look like I'm talking to myself. LOL!
  6. I have a hospital who want to fly me and my wife to Warm Springs, Montana to provide an onsite visit/interview. They want to potentially offer me a position there. Before I go, I want to know if anyone knows how easy or difficult it is to access land to hunt on in Montana. Is all the land there privately owned ranch type property? Have any of you hunted in that area and for what? Even better, have any of you lived there?
  7. Welcome........and thank you for for serving!
  8. well............i wrote a good (i think) post in response to someone's comment to mine.....and then their comment disappeared. Therefore, I guess my post would not make sense here at this time so I will save it for later. Anyway, like I said prior.......beautiful winter picture and I'll ask the people at work if they are interested in this lease. Peace
  9. jdemaris, I'll ask around for you about your lease situation as I work down that way. I also wanted to say you or who ever took those pictures did a heck of a job. The winter picture is beautiful!!!
  10. Thanks for the input moog. My trip out there last weekend to see the kids I saw several deer less than a mile rom her house. They were not in an area to gun hunt safely in my opinion but archery would have been a real option. Anyway, I think you are right about prices of land just for hunting in that area. What the real expense is though from what I have found is the extremely high property taxes. Well I (what the heck button did I hit to make this happen now....lol....and how do I make it stop...) expect they will be living there for years to come so I will have time to search a little at a time. If I come up with anything or hit the LOTTO and buy some myself, I"ll send you an invite. Thanks again.
  11. This may sound gross as well, but when my nose runs out of control I sometimes bunch up chunks of tissue and stuff them in my nares. The only downside is then it rubs down the back of my throat. LOL! Oh, and it does not take much time before the little nose wicks get soaked and I have to yank them out anyway and use the side of my glove.
  12. Hey moog5050, My daughter and her husband bought a house and are now living in Webster. Nice little area for them to settle although I wish they were closer to me. Anyway, is there any public hunting out by Webster so when I am out there I might be able to poke around for deer?
  13. Welcome to the site. Thank you for your service.
  14. Welcome to the site! I had to chuckle about your choice of stands. It sounded (sadly) similar to a bear stand a so called outfitter put me in once in Quebec. The clown took me to a dump, had me climb up onto a broken shopping cart and then leap/pull myself up into a big old tree where I proceeded to sit for hours on a branch in the down pour rain watching over a five gallon pail filled with some old goop with maggots crawling on it. And for the record I am definitely not built for shopping cart-tree jumping activity! I finally climbed down and walked back to the leaking camp (not the one on the brochure)....lol....boy was I pi$$ed. I can laugh now but it was a nightmare then. There's a lot more to this story but that's for another time. Give yourself time to learn enjoy your time in the field, stay safe and good luck. Anyway.......again.....welcome. And, thank you for your service! NYH
  15. Controlling it is the key for me because I get it all the time to varying degrees. I Love it!!! With a natural high like that who needs drugs? I would get amped up with each approaching season as a kid, and still do. And by the time i climb into my stand or blind, for that time at least, all is right in my world. Hearing the "crunch...crunch....crunch..." of deer approaching in the dried leaves starts the old ticker pounding as it gets closer and then when the deer pops in sight.........full blown...holy smoke...I can't swallow, I hope he don't hear me breathing.....uh...am I remembering to breath....can he hear my heart..........ok....just calm done and get a grip......it's only a deer for goodness sake! Yup....it's only a deer....its only deer hunting.....those who don"t hunt don't understand it....but for us that do there is no feeling like it. I have always said if I stopped getting that feeling I would quit hunting and I stand by that, but I don't ever see it happening. Buck fever is he only illness I pray I catch each year!
  16. I loved her. She reminded me of my own grandma. Always ready to serve up some 'viddles".
  17. Lawdwaz...........LOL........that is hysterical! Those guys will probably never be right again......lol!
  18. Sorry to hear the bad news. His heart must be broken as well. Hope he heals up real soon and can get out there. Wishing a speedy recovery!
  19. And from yet another Oneida county hunter, welcome.
  20. Welcome to the site. That is a pretty area, and you must drive right by me on the way. Good luck this season.
