  1. While cleaning my shotgun today, I realized that i have some very light rust in the threads where I would screw the choke in. So how should I go about cleaning it to get rid of it? I soaked it with some hoppes #9 and plan on leaving it overnight and hoping that will take care of it. I've never had rust in my barrel and i'm a little nervous about it.
  2. That's why I would personally would never hunt in January...I don't even like shooting does after the rut.
  3. I was just about to ask how you guys did. At least you guys got a few!
  4. Ya I don't know how you guys would hunt on a day like today. I can deal with cold and snowy but cold and rainy is just pure misery! Good luck out there.
  5. I looked at some updated figures yesterday and it looks like Rocky Point is up to 23 deer so far. Still a couple weeks left in the season to get it done though.
  6. I have a red dot as well and I think ill be patterning 20-40/50 yards. I found my self a nice piece of state land in Westchester to do it on.
  7. I don't think it will change how passionate I am about hunting and I would continue to hunt the same amount, but this would never happen. Although if it did, I would crack a few does early and then do some bird/small game hunting.
  8. I'm going to be using hevi-shot as well with a high quality choke. I was under the impression that all state land didn't allow target practice but Ill check again if any near me allow it.
  9. What range do you guys pattern your shotguns to? And do any of you guys know of any range i can go to in Westchester or LI where I can pattern my shotgun?
  10. I've seen a few deer taken on LI deer hunting facebook page. From what I hear, rocky point didn't produce much at all so far.
  11. I watched his show when it was called something else and on another channel, but now I can't watched it since I don't have outdoors channel.
  12. I probably wouldn't eat it but it seams a lot of people here have eaten meat that is older then yours.
  13. Nice going! I hate to see an animal suffering. Im not sure I would have killed the deer my self if I didn't have tags but im glad you knew someone who did.
  14. I hunt almost every weekend of bow and rifle with the exception of the first and second weekend of October and then i stop the last day of rifle season.
  15. Man I hope they get to the bottom of this! I love salmon and steelhead fishing up there.
  16. Hunting and fishing is a part of who I am. I grew up hunting and I can't picture me not doing it. I love being outdoors and spending time with my father. I also like getting my own food and knowing where it comes from.
  17. Lots of lake Erie and Ontario tribs in the area that hold some decent steelhead.
  18. I have a Nikon BuckMaster and the eye relief doesn't change at all when adjusting the power.
