  1. One of my best friends lives in PR. Praying for the best for him, his family and all impacted by this storm!
  2. Penfield and Webster - $70k for a 1/3 to 1/2 acre developed lot. $20k for raw land is not unusual and that doesn't address highly desirable commercial locations. I will note that my father built a 56 home subdivision a few years ago and he was offered more than $25k per acre on the raw land. Decided to develop the land himself.
  3. $20K an acre would be in the ball park for land that can be developed in the suburbs of Rochester. Jerry has it right, wrong audience unless the hunter is also a developer.
  4. Apparently its a pretty good blind! Always enjoyable watching deer, especially when they are not alert.
  5. Only If I happen to have opened bags of corn, but you know there is no way I am allowing dirty corn to touch my sissy carpet.
  6. I suspect much of this decision depends on deer density in the areas you hunt. I pass on far more does (and bucks) than I shoot every year but we have good density. Like Pygmy, my preference is the mid size does. Keep those old long nose slick heads around to keep breeding in your area. I will also note that doe sizes change significantly among the properties we hunt. What would be average at one property would be a very large doe at another we hunt. The heavy ag areas have bigger doe. The areas where deer are more browse dependent tend to be of a smaller body size.
  7. Bumped a fair 2yr old buck pulling in to do some work at one of the properties and then had two groups of doe and fawn walk right near the truck while waiting for Phade. Good to have them around.
  8. Be sure to put the rest back to the recommended CS measurement (typically 3/4" plus or minus 1/16") before you start cutting arrows and test from there. I think DW is correct. Weak spine assuming you are RH.
  9. Nomad i have your catalogue. Accidentally delivered to my place. When did AE start selling clothes and why no 4XL? By the way, you and Biz would look pretty fancy in those stretchy boots
  10. Back yard and 22-23 yds in my basement. 37 is a lot of bows. When the limbs and new bow arrive, I will have 2 that I shoot. I have 2 more bear bows that just sit because they are really too short for me but were gifts -73 kodiak mag (got me started with trad) and a super mag. I did kill a deer with the kodiak mag but it's a little twitchy at my DL. I haven't even shot the super mag. Needs a string.
  11. Thanks Glitter. Limbs are supposed to be shipped next week but just in case, I bought another bow. Good excuse. Lol It will be here Tuesday. but thank you for the very generous offer. If you ever want to shoot, hit me up.
  12. Sorry. Did mean to imply you don't know, but was clarifying for those that don't. I like the look of Flemish better
  13. I am one of Steve's biggest fans but only because his strings are that good. Glitter, Flemish is the style of string not material. FF can be used to make Flemish strings.
  14. Just posting to show a member how fletched arrows with field points can look great but bareshafts tell the tale that spine is off. Results in a lousy tune with less energy and BH will not hit with FP. Plus it will be very unforgiving on bad releases. This was only at 15yds. At 20yds the bareshaft will miss the hog completely. I am shooting these stiff spinned arrows while waiting for replacement limbs. Only 10lbs difference in the limbs. All three arrows are the same spine and head weight
  15. First 2 shots today: 15ish followed by 20ish.
  16. D97 still has a fair amount of elasticity and Steve uses it if requested. Same string material black widow uses. I don't know whether the OPs bow requires Dacron.
  17. good deal! Those are heavy arrows. They will pass through deer with your DL at 20yds no doubt.
  18. Culver Try lining up string blur with the inside edge of the riser (or whatever part of the riser seems natural - some use middle or outside edge) for consistency. Good shooting! Good to see those arrows entering the block straight and near the bullseye.
