I'll tell you what jackass, I've seen enough good people and children die way too early, that to trivialize his existence to the point of it focusing on hunters making bad shots or choices that turned out well just to explain why they killed an animal, to be an embarrassment to truly religious people....and quite honestly you should feel the same.....and don't even say that "God" had bigger plans for them, because I doubt that many buy that.........happy reading wolc123.

apparently.....I bought a Bible this year so I don't have to practice.

I would be more than happy to send that or the youth bow to someone in need......I don't know of anyone who needs one, if anyone does, I'd be more than happy to hook them up, I might even eat the shipping cost if need be.

I think about this everytime I hunt with my Father......that's what really killed it for me with the antler restrictions, he had to pass on bucks the last few years and it really bothered me thinking those deer might have been his last bucks, but hey, that's not what's important to a lot of people.

I thought Jesus guided all your shots for a quick, clean kill...what happened? was he on a break doing more important stuff like looking for a cure for cancer today?

sorry to hear that, I think there may be a vaccination to clear that up.........

yeah, the few I've shot had enough bugs on them for an appetizer...no thanks.

that's the solution we've been waiting for!!..........

good to hear it wasn't anything major.......like I said earlier, my last tuneup produced 3 brand new Champion plugs that were bad right out of the box..............what brand?

yeah, I know it's a hard sell......I would rather give it away then deal with that.

ok, no problem...and that offer stands for anyone looking for a bow, I'm well aware that a bow that age has little resale value and probably not very desirable to many, but I hate to have it lay around if someone can make good use of it......I also have an older PSE youth bow with new strings and cables that my kids have outgrown and I offer that to anyone with a little over shipping, I have sent things to others on here with no cost, so my word is good that I look to make no money.

not sure what you're looking for, but I have an older PSE Bruin that I had the cables and strings replaced on about 3 years ago that alone cost almost $200............not the greatest bow and probably 8-10 years old at this point, but I would let it go for not much more than shipping as it is just taking up space and it is totally set up with whisker biscuit, sights and quiver as well as a release or two , shoot me a PM if interested and I'll give you more details....I rather give it a good home than have it sit here, not looking to make money by any means.

I think the online courses are only available in certain areas......but as far as my kids were concerned, sitting through the course came nowhere close to what they learned going out with me and me instructing them.

that's just a small portion of why some people are not happy, at least the real estate company's...........from what I've heard, they move in and grab up land that has been on the market for awhile and the people who are sick of trying to sell jump at their offers, thus taking a bite out of their business, but either way I'm happy with all the land that has opened up.

yeah, unfortunately the unhooking the battery trick only fools it for a little while and you're back to square one in no time..........been there done that.

I have to give NYC credit for all the land that they have been buying up around the watersheds and opening it up to the public......for all the crap they get for other things, I see this as a good thing on their part. I do know it doesn't sit well with people in the real estate business because it's land that is taken off the market forever and cuts into their business......but either way it's a government entity doing something good for sportsman for a change.

I know maybe a dozen guys or so that deer hunt.........the majority find out about any changes that occurred when they buy their licenses in the fall

1- Falcon? 2-Eagle, maybe Bald or Golden? 3-Coopers Hawk?

that's classic.........you really gotta wonder how much of that is going around. I'm willing to bet the population of hunters who really care about deer and the management behind them is tiny.

luckily this was a small buck that I didn't want to deal with at the time and being this clown was right around the corner I just dropped it off to him because it was convenient.....lesson learned. I've had all my previous mounts done at Eastern Taxidermy in Farmingville and those guys are absolute gentleman and I'm sorry I didn't take the time to bring this one to them, but who would think a taxidermist could screw up a European mount?............and decent deer butchers are hard to find as well, that's why I started doing my own butchering again, the guy I had moved out of State.

yeah, I normally do them myself but just didn't feel like dealing with it this time...........I think it would have been $160.00 with a plaque, certainly not cheap, but I got all my cash back from him and thankfully it wasn't the trophy of a lifetime.....and I agree, I think that truly talented Taxidermists are few and far between.

I have no doubt that many happy customers walked out his doors, I've also used him in the past without a problem.....and it wasn't even the ruined mount that really pissed me off, it was the attitude he gave me, I couldn't believe what I was hearing and couldn't believe that he would have no problem letting that garbage leave his shop......maybe he just doesn't know how to deal with unhappy customers so he gets defensive or just flat out tries to avoid them.

here's some pictures.....note the huge split down the front, the missing teeth and hopefully you can see how poorly the antlers were reattached, and not to mention that it had to be painted in an effort to hide everything.....a look I absolutely do not like even on a well done mount.

I now this topic is a little dated, but let me tell you this, steer clear of Fish & Wildlife Unlimited in Oakdale, NY...............I just took my European mount home the other day and it is an absolute disaster and embarrassment for this operation. I dropped it off in November, was called in March to pick it up and I refused to take it because it was so bad, missing teeth, antlers had fallen off somehow and were poorly put back on, splits and cracks everywhere........The woman working said "Danny" was away and would call me asap........no such luck, I called him back two weeks later and was told "we hire kids to help out during the off season and that's what happened to my mount", "they over boiled it"......what??? but he promised he would make it right in about a week or so, fast forward 2 months without any response from him, so I called a few days ago and he gave a story about an illness/death in the family...while this is understandable, who can shut a business down for two months?? he also said it was on the bench right in front of him and he was gonna get it done right away.....I had a bad feeling and decided to stop on my way to work. because I wanted the natural skull and knew there was no way I could get that...it had to either be patched up and painted or the antlers put on a fake skull, not what I wanted..........anyway, the sh*t attitude I got from this clown was unbelievable and quite frankly worse than then the ruined mount, and to top it off he couldn't even find it, so his "I have it right here in front of me" story was a bunch of BS..........his response? "take a look around this shop, do you think I can do all this myself?" and then went back to the story of how he hires kids to help him out and that it's their fault.........anyway, I requested my deposit back and mount as is and walked out, I honestly can't believe that this clown didn't bend over backwards to fix this and prevent this disaster from leaving his shop...........I would rather have the mount in this horrendous condition to show others then to have him patch it up............I'll post pictures within the next day or two.

gotcha........yeah, I've seen "tenants" make the property owners life a living hell, very few people who rent rooms or apartments or let others, including family members establish a residency in a dwelling they own, fully realize the rights of such "tenant" until they try to get them out...........but that's another topic all together.
