Nomad

Scout in the off season , soon after the close of hunting season is good . Trails, rubs, scrapes will all be there , stinking up, the woods and bumping deer will not matter then .

If you shoot straight down , your arrow will come out in the Indian Ocean , so if anything surf and turf .

I live in Monroe county as well, Webster to be specific. Webster is loaded with ticks , pulled them off our cat and dog, and twice off myself . Our dog has Lyme disease, and I know two other dogs and several people in Webster who have it or have had it . That said I’ve never seen any on my deer , hunt 8H south of thruway .

Sure our youngest is stomping around the “ woods “ out West , even through in an animal pic for you .

Tyra is hosting this years Dancing With The Stars, she not skinny anymore .

That would be an odd thing to collect , I’m most proud of my collection of newspaper articles of Busses Plunging.

I’m confused as well , mostly because I don’t own shirts with pockets .

Mission aborted , no principle target spotted in area . Team Nomad going dark , awaiting better intel .

Ok we’ve entered the witching hour ! Good news the fields have dried and no longer smell of cow crap .

Team Nomad is in position awaiting further instructions, over .

Mine came today ,initial thoughts . Good beam, solid center spot with a bit of side splash , the low will get anyone through a dark woods, and the high will light up and field or woods when looking for your deer . Beware , the rear clickey switch is very sensitive, the lightest press will turn it on . It will eventually turn on in your pack or pocket , I’d recommend turning it on ,then just unscrew the rear cap like half a turn till it shuts off, to prevent it turning on when you put it away in your pack . I carried a much higher quality light at work ,with a much stiffer switch ,and a handful ,of times a year, I’d wonder, “ why is my leg getting hot ?” great light for the money so far , time will be the test .

Awesome !

Beautiful day, can’t wait to be in stand this afternoon. Some Sta-bil spilled on my Muck boots yesterday , so I wiped them off with a rag with gear oil on it . May have created the ultimate cover scent / lure ,we’ll know later on !

I get the humor , but just a FYI to everyone , Costanzas isn’t taking venison till Nov 1 . They spend several weeks filling “ end of year orders “ of their regular sausage products , then open for venison for a few months .

Ok I’m sure that’s fine . I’m looking at my experience of being NYS certified , intermediate level , rope rescue and almost 30 years on the job , we never mixed the two , heck you got yelled at if you stepped on a life line . Enjoy the saddle ! Im Strictly a ladderstand guy now , and I don’t repel off bridges and buildings anymore either , heck I hire a guy to clean my gutters lol .

Cheers !

Glad to hear that ! Now where are mine ? Lol

Having gun hunted since the mid 70s, I’d say Steve’s post is spot on ,it’s almost depressing how few shots there are today . There was a time you couldn’t count all the shots , multiple guys emptying their pumps and semis at a running herd ,as it ran from farm to farm . Heck today by Sunday morning I wonder if anyone is out hunting . One would see pick ups packed full of guys getting dropped off for drives , it was actually quite fun really .

Late lunch at Genny Brew House . They used to have a ton of 1/4 inch slab bacon on this cheese burger, enough that I had to pull some off and eat it separately . they said the cost went up to much, very disappointed, I’d pay the extra cost in a heart beat !

Limited release Hop State of mind Cream Ale, two brewery , one hop farm collaboration, had to, order online ,Sunday at Noon . Limit of three crowlers , free glass, the first 100 to, pick up also got the poster , it’s well done on a heavy stock ,may frame it . Ill open one up at the Bills kick off .

Live from Genny Brew House, Mosaic Cream ales , my favorite !

When it’s wet and muddy, I’ll drive down and back in my camo Crocs , I just know at some point I’ll forget to toss Muck boots in the P/U bed, and have to hunt in them . Camo Crocs ,the modern day moccasins ! Ill tell a public ( BLM ) hunt from out in Montana after I take the Mrs to lunch .

Not hunting till Wed afternoon .per rattling , many years ago I bought a rattle bag, set up on the ground behind a friends house in Webster, first light I hit that bag . A buck jumped up a bit away and ran in , parallel to, me and I bit out , so never got a shot , but man I was sold on rattling ! Haven’t had much luck since ...... perhaps a one time use rattle bag !

The dates are oct 28&29 , I’ve yet to finalize my specific times or even whose cabin I’ll stay in ..... I’d guess I’d get there mid afternoon the 28 , need to talk to the guys .

Not sure what the “ use “ was , but I wouldn’t make a habit out of using them as utility ropes .
