Looks like there may just be statewide Antler Restricts.
jjb4900 replied to Four Season Whitetail's's topic in Deer Hunting
antler restrictions need a lot more than just hunters passing on bucks till they have 3pts on one side to work......... -
I used apple, wood was in there from start to finish, so constant smoke....I have a Masterbuilt Electric Smoker.....I was wondering if that because it was so cold here yesterday and last night, that caused it to burn hotter than normal and create a more intense smoke because the smoker was constantly fighting to maintain temp., is that possibel?
-
well, my first attempt at kielbasa is so so, casing came out a little dark, crispy and too smokey...........probably too heavy on the smoke at too high a temp? did about 170 for 12-14 hours. Only up point is I just grabbed a few links of fresh Kielbasa from a local German store, so no $$ really lost. The guy wasn't sure if there was any preservative added so maybe I was a little over cautious with the heat and cook time.

big difference if you misjudge 10-20 yards with a rifle as opposed to doing the same with "archery" gear...........unless the man upstairs wants you to get the deer, than apparently that's all that matters.

I think the herd needs to be rebuilt in many areas before they begin to worry about imposing antler restrictions......The Catskills where I hunt are a prime example. -

mature no idea, does DEC even keep track of the age structure of bucks being harvested aside from adult or fawn?............I'll rephrase that and just say that taking two bucks, regardless of age has got to be worse for the herd as far as letting bucks grow than taking just one.........at this point the majority of hunters who hunt the AR zones would have no problem shooting two 1.5 year bucks that just meet the criteria, and that's not the point of AR's is it? -
I think you may be confusing people's enjoyment out of getting a rise out of you by by bringing it up every chance they get, with a genuine concern for the deer farm industry itself............
-
although I can fully understand your concern for your business and what may or may not be happening with it, I also think you're way overestimating everyone else caring about it.

I agree, no way anyone can tell me that taking two fully mature bucks out of a herd is better for it than someone taking just one spike or 4pt. -
I think the term "free range chicken" takes on a new meaning once you get into NYC...........at least that's what I hear.
-
any more reports? I know there where a few members going out opening day.
-
I agree about the "ex police officer" and "ex military" really having any bearing..........I know a few of both who balance on the edge of people we want owning guns, there's a lot of both with major issues....if I'm not mistaken, there are many that are angry that cops have an edge on gun ownership and certain exemptions, so right there you could throw that out the window as far as the concerns of many go.
-
and if I'm not mistaken, having a pistol license revoked also causes you to lose your "right" to own long guns..........
-
not to mention the authorities showing up........
-
I don't doubt that, but at some point there was a mental health issue......my guess is he was admitted for a psychiatric evaluation, the terms being used, "voluntary" and "involuntary", are usually associated with how someone is being being admitted for that evaluation...........I hate to see what help people are going to refuse to get because of this type of outcome.
-
aside from the guy possibly wrongly losing his guns, how many people go to the emergency room of a hospital for insomnia and get admitted to boot?..........there's definitely a few pieces missing from this puzzle.
-
these days, I rent a splitter from Home Depot.........cut everything to desired length and when I'm ready to split I rent the splitter for 24 hours and pretty much run it nonstop till I'm done..........let someone else worry about the maintenance and storage, and if it blows up it's not my problem.
-
do you hang and let air dry before smoking or do you just put the kielbasa right into the smoker?
-
yeah, must be a factory defect......unless it's made like that.
-
don't tell anyone........or go to a FFL holder and have it properly transferred. .
-
I see the terms "voluntary" & "involuntary" are used in the article.........those are terms used when a person is brought in for a psychiatric evaluation, so apparently he was saying more then just not being able to sleep.......not saying it's right or wrong, just gotta be careful what you say to be people these days....and as usual probably more to the story .
-
Crazy stuff........
-
I pretty much buried it as it was with all intact.....I'm gonna guess 6-8 months, winter months probably have little insect activity so leave it through the warmer months.
-
I just did it once because it was a roadkill and didn't really matter to me how it came out.....anyhow, I buried it up to the bottom of the antlers and cover it with a barrel to keep rodents off it, but it did turn out pretty well, not to sure I would go that route with a rack that meant something to me....but probably better than the hanging on a fence method.
