  1. Yes, I know what you mean. I just finished co-teaching 6 weekly hunter education classes at NYS DEC CAMP COLBY and have a public bow class set up for September 9 & 10. Good luck with the event and let me know how it turned out. It sounds like something we can do at our Saranac Lake Fish & Game Club. www.slfgc.com
  2. Would love to attend, but it is about a 6 hour drive from where I live in the Adirondacks.
  3. I had a great time hunting with "wildcat junkie". Learned a lot as I never hunted turkeys before so I had a lot to learn. I was amazed as to the birds vision. On our first day, as I stepped out behind my blind and was talking to "wildcat", I moved my arm and hand to point out the two turkeys in the neighboring fields. Even with a tree fence line between us those birds caught my motion and off on a run they went. I have been seeing more and more turkeys in our Bloomingdale, NY area over the years. They are really expanding their range and quantity. In one field near me I routinely see 5-14 turkeys in the morning along with 4-over 20 whitetail. Lots of game behind my house and attached is my trail camera pic of my local Pine Marten or as they are called in Europe, Sable! He loves pork ribs! Hopefully will be going again next week, once I get started on my "honey-do" list while my wife is in Florida visiting her sisters!
  4. I just got a call from our police chief, (who I talked to this morning while going to the post office) and he did do some research on this. In the end, a person UNDER 12 years of age, can only shoot a gun propelled by GAS, AIR OR SPRING at a range with the proper supervision as outlined in the 265-20, 7d. A person who is OVER 12 can shoot a gun propelled by gas, air, spring or GUN POWDER at a range with the proper supervision as outlined in the 265-20, 7d. Now I finally understand the law as written.
  5. I run the trap range at our incorporated gun club. I was asked by a prospective attendee if they could bring their 11 year old to shoot trap. I did not know if it was legal for the under 12 year old to shoot. I asked the regional DEC ECO's and got several different answers. One was 16 years, one was 12 years old. After reading the New York Penal Code, specifically 265-20, and then the exception paragraph (7D) I came away with a different answer. Can someone with legal experience in law enforcement or just experience with this situation comment as to WHAT IS THE MINIMUM AGE A PERSON CAN SHOOT AT A NEW YORK STATE INCORPORATED GUN RANGE. Thanks for any input or comments. Here is the PARTIALpenal code, as the entire verbiage is TOO LONG to list here....All penal laws can be searched here: http://ypdcrime.com/penal.law/article265.htm?zoom_highlight=265.20#p265.20 S 265.20 Exemptions. a. Paragraph (h) of subdivision twenty-two of section 265.00 and sections 265.01, 265.01-a, subdivision one of section 265.01-b, 265.02, 265.03, 265.04, 265.05, 265.10, 265.11, 265.12, 265.13, 265.15, 265.36, 265.37 and 270.05 shall not apply to: 1-6 omitted 7.

  6. I think it was a "pun". You CAN reload .22 ammo, you just need to find some to "reload" your gun with. Get it?
  7. Hi: I live in the Adirondacks in the village of Bloomingdale, located in Essex County. I have been hunting for over 40 years, am a very active 65, married since 1972, retired from the Air Force and love to hunt. I am a certified New York State Hunter Educator and would like to meet a similar experienced hunter with whom I can partner with. Usually you don't see this type of topic, but, hey, it does not mean it will not work. Just maybe there is someone out there with a similar need. Here are some of my preferences: I prefer tracking deer, but on occasion will sit early and late in the day. If you followed Larry Benoit and his sons, that is how I like to hunt. I really enjoy the hunt, the shot is secondary. I like hunting small game as rabbits, grouse, and pheasant. I used to have a Brittany that was an excellent dog, but now I have no dogs. I respect all game laws and will hunt all day in areas far off the beaten path. Shooting a deer is not the most important result in my hunts, the enjoyment and quality of the hunt is what matters to me. Why am I looking for a partner? Going alone can be dangerous especially if you get hurt or need help. Then there is always the work after getting a deer. Two people make the job so much easier. I would prefer someone that has a similar past history and lives no more than a 60 mile radius from me. If most of my preferences interest you, send me a message. Thanks for reading and if you have any questions, just send them. You never know.
  8. Unfortunately there is really nothing you can do to help this deer. Are you sure the leg is broken? Do you see any signs of a compound fracture? If you think the deer is suffering, you can call DEC and they may dispatch it. Hope you find the right thing to do.
  9. Hmmmm... this video has been used for all sorts of subjects. Still funny, but when it refers to select people on this board, it stops. Not everyone knows those mentioned and it makes the video an "inside' joke. Also, the correct usage is "wear" not "where".....just sayin to check spelling in the sub-titles.
  10. Wow - this is a difficult topic. So many choices, so many good manufacturers. I see the limiting factor is $$$'s........ You did not say whether you would want new or used? I am sure that there are some good, fair prices out there for a used rifle you want. Personally, I will continue to shoot my 1962 Remington 700 BDL in .308, wood stock and 20" factory barrel! Good Luck in getting your gun.
  11. I have mine going all year right behind my place. Today I pulled the chips from two cameras, and here are two pics. More to come. The one with the fawn was last year
  12. More than likely legal, but undoubtely ethics will play role in whether you agree or not with the action.
  13. Here a couple of videos of the bucks behind my Adirondack home/camp. I have no food plot or other attractant in the area and these deer are in the deep hard woods. Do you think the 4 pointer early in the season is the same 4 point taken this month? Bow season starts the 27th of September for me..... Buck 4 point 8.7.13 613am.AVI Buck 4 point 9.8.13.AVI Buck 6-8 point 8.1.13 728am.AVI Buck spike 8.9.13 203pm.AVI
