  1. There has been a lot less deer by me since they started handing out DMP's individually instead of to a "Party of 4" or so. I have always seen acorns not eaten, ground under apple trees covered with apples all hunting season. Have to mow foodplotscause deer aren't keeping them down, other fields need mowing or the trees (regeneration!) take over. If I see 10 deer a season it was a good year now. There is no reason not to see 2-3 deer a day hunting in NY, besides the slaughter of the deer herd
  2. What if they put the fire out, Who would pay for the fee(insurance actually) knowing its going to get put out anyway. That's like paying for car insurance knowing that your covered if you don't pay !
  3. "passing isnt a bad thing it makes you a better hunter" ?
  4. I agree with Doc. Just take Thursday Friday off instead of Monday Tuesday.
  5. Well i saw one deer still hunting. 7 pt I shot at 20 yards. Other than that I haven't seen a deer from my stands in 2 years. With the exception of 4 deer I saw on the other side of the hill about 1/2 mile away. Saw them constantly.

    Legal is legal

    ."there are way more on here that bash those that have made a choice to not shoot young bucks than there are those bashing those that do... " Who bashes hunters for passing on small bucks?
  7. http://www.sunrisesunset.com/usa/New_York.asp It's funny how most want to see poaching laws more strictly enforced and higher fines. I guess that's just for the laws they don't break !
  8. I ordered one. Good quality and works as stated. Simple easy. The pouch for muzzle will keep it from getting any thing in the barrel.
  9. "You see does all day long, but when you go out to harvest one, for some reason they do not show up" They know!!!
  10. Qthe Hunter, You can shoot 2 doe with your bow and muzzleloader tags and then shoot a doe with your regular tag during the last season if you don't shoot a buck. You think 3 isn't enough?
  11. I am in 4F its rifle by me. Stamford area
  12. Is that antler restrictions when the new regulations take effect? I know i am by Stamford but are outside the antler restrictions.
  13. Since we are on the topic of filling out tags, does anybody know what pen works best? I have a horrible time writing on those tags.
  14. 125 gr steelhead. The only deer I didn't get a pass thru on was a fixed head. Unlike some that blame the broadhead I take full credit for bad placement. It hit the shoulder square and stopped!
  15. How do you draw a bow in a 5' space? Do you stick the arrow out the window before drawing?
  16. Just had 4-6 Thursday night. Came back to the island before this next storm. Hunting in snow is great!
  17. I had a buck walk in lay down 25 yards away for 2 1/2 hours. It got up and walked directly away from me.

    outdoorstom. I agree each piece of land is different but biologists and most certainly the state has a # they feel is appropriate for each management unit. Just wondering if anybody knew what they were.

    Does anyone know what biologists feel are the carrying capacity for deer throughout NY. Lets say agricultural verse old farm verse wooded areas?
  21. Make sure they are loose fitting and laces are loose around calves. can't restrict blood flow at all. You would be surprised how much you restrict blood flow tightening laces to much
  22. Dumping illegally shot coyotes? ON THE THRUWAY!! I don't know where you would even come up with that. I have seen coyotes on the road live and dead. Not that uncommon
  23. That was the only shot he heard! That's the evidence. Wow
  24. pawle76, Do you know the extent of flood damage there? I hear bridge closed at Lexington
  25. i remember people camping on 42 during the season. Must be 30 years ago, there were always deer hanging
