Some NYS hunters are pretty sheltered from what implements exist in other states for big game and I imagine it is partly due to the same mentality that some need a 300wm to take a NE whitetail. Airguns have been used to take deer and larger game for years, glad NYS is giving it a chance. Per the DEC, "big bore airgun" is defined as: Air-powered firearms designed for big game ("big bore air rifles") are available commercially, and they fire bullets that are 0.30 inches (0.30 caliber) or larger in diameter at sufficient velocities to safely and efficiently harvest big game at ranges of about 100 yards or less. The Department proposes a clear definition of "big bore air rifle" that must produce projectile velocities of not less than 650 feet per second, and fire projectiles that are no smaller than 0.30 inches (0.30 caliber) in diameter. To give it some perspective, some Airguns are sub-moa and have enough energy out to 100yards for full skull penetration. Westchester currently allows Airguns to be used for hunting small game. There is no size limit for bore. They'll simply need to amend big game to the regs and Westchester would be set. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

You can use my spots. I have one for bow and another for gun. Got a nice doe this year from it. The only problem is, there's a lot of people there, it's public land. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

I generally skin while still warm. Last one I did was a bit concerning, luckily for me, I had a buddy with me that enjoyed torturing them by popping them. He said something about the sound of them popping soothed his inner hatred towards them or something of that affect. Hey, don't judge!

If you hunt the area often, see if you can get the cell numbers of the local Rangers. Think one of them is Moses, young fella. I do t frequent Stewart anymore, if I did, that's what I would do. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

There's a butcher near me that sells venison. Not sure if it's legal or not, they're Italian run so I didn't ask. [emoji6] X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

Wanna hear my story about being 33 and never hunting before?
shawnhu replied to Rockspek's topic in Deer Hunting
Was his response to you? I saw him answering other questions not asked by you. Probably not a good idea to tell others what to do if you have absolutely no control over stopping them. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems -

I target shoot with my gun more often than I "kill". I bet some of the Olympic shooters would disagree on your comment as well. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems -

Don't mind the negative comments. Some people feel there's only one way to hunt, their way. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems -
Sucks to have this happen to you. I would get the number of the local Rangers instead next time, they patrol Stewart, not DEC. They can often be seen driving around in unmarked Jeeps. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

Anyone ever hear something called the theory of relativity? Everything is relative to one another. Bullet drop is relative to the barrel bore line. But it actually doesn't drop relative to the horizon, it's actually rising in most cases until it reaches its climax, at which point the initial force exerted on the bullet from the barrel in a slight upward angle is overcome by the constant gravitational force 9.8m/s^2 If you're in a rocket ship flying to the moon, do you notice the ship going up? Of course not, you're in the ship, it's stationary relative to you, but of course you know it's going up, but that's only relative to the earth's surface.

Found this along with some other fresh sign in 3S today. Found 3 beds that's dry and a bit warm, must have kicked them up on my approach. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems -
