Welcome to the site.

[Nassau hunters]

Where are the Nassau hunters? Where does everyone shoot (bow/Rifle or shotgun)?

[What type of rifle rounds ?]

Hornady SST in 145 grains.

[bows]

Hoyt Katera. Shoots sweet.

[would like to start a hunting group?]

I would love it. But, also do not live close by.

[climbers]

Just bought a Summit Titan. Can't wait to use it!

[Do you wear Orange? If so why? If not Why not? :)]

I wear orange during gun season. I year I was hunting on private land in Liberty. I was under a tree, looking a two does. Did not have a doe permit (so no shot). The only other hunter supposed to be on the land was by brother in law around 4 acres down.When a shot rang out hit about a 1.5 feet above my head. Then another shot that hit the doe.  I didn't move I was freakin out. A guy wearing jeans and a plaid shirt came out behind some thick brush. I got out from under my spot and confronted him. He claims that he was passing by , didn't mean no harm. Even though he did not have permission he ignored me and trailed the doe (she was gut shot). Called the owner who called the DEC and they found his car but not the guy. 

[Deer eats a bird!]

You know what they say, I think its goes something like... better one bird in the mouth than two in a bush.

[Magazines? What to do you get or what do you like?]

Bowhunter, NAHC magazine  also New York Outdoor News .

[Tough squirrels]

Heck I would be too scared to shoot at them.

[Squirrel Hunting]

Fasteddie, that's good. Made my daughter and I do a double take. When I first started to hunt, we used to go upstate 2 days earlier than gun season. The owner would make us clean out all the squirrels we could find. The would make a pasta sauce with them, boy were they good.

[Cabin Build Progress Pictures]

Great looking cabin. Looks very big. I hope you and your family enjoy it for many years.

[Doe lays the smackdown on dog]

That was great, thanks for sharing. Did feel bad for the dog.

[Where do you shop for hunting stuff online?]

Mac's Prarrie Wings, for watterfowlers

 ME too. Pretty good price. I p/u a summit goliath (or was it my Titan) for 219 from them. No complaints with service.

[Lights! How do you walk into the woods in pitch darkness?]

Headlamp with a flashlight as back up on private land. On public during gun season a Strobe light and disco ball.

[Deer eats a bird!]

HOLY CROP  ??? . I thought they were vegetarians, like PETA. I guess you can't believe everything your told.

 

[The "Official" Where are you from, where do you hunt / fish thread.]

I live in Hicksville

Hunt- 18 years in liberty (until last year), part of last year till now Roscoe and Suffolk County.

[Quality affordable scopes? What do you use?]

I happen to like the Burris scopes. They make a good scope for a descent price. But, it all depend on wht floats you boat. I have a buddy who swears by Simmons (go figure). My 2 cents.

[Rage 3 Blade - Are they legal in NY or not?]

I had the 3 blade, had to buy the 2 blade. DEC officer that I met in the woods gave me a warning but let me go, with the 3 blade.

[Rifles, What do you use, why and pictures. Lets see them.]

Sako Finnwolf .308. It shoots like a charm, and if i concentrate enough it is a nail tacker.
