  1. Sure do. I have around 16 stands set up on my farm.
  2. WNY, yes you can...when I got mine I purchased the lifetime sportsmans which I thought it included archery and ML..but it doesn't If I knew that at the time I would have bought everything seperate because I could have done without the lifetime fishing license costing $300.
  3. Steve, same here. I use age as well to judge deer. Education is key!
  4. I hunt suffolk county and grew up there. You can use portable or climber stands but not perminant stands on public land. Not sure where you read that?
  5. SteveB, I don't think anyone thinks by haveing AR will protect all the 1 1/2-2 1/2 year old bucks nor is a 2 1/2 year old buck mature. I think AR will help some of the bucks get to the next level 3 1/2 or 4 1/2. Deer that are over 3 years of age don't act stupid like a 1 1/2 year old, they get smarter and are harder to hunt, increasing their survival right to get older. I also dont think just a point system will work. I would like to see width as a measurement as well.
  6. I will have my sony Fx7 video camera with me!
  7. Martin bows are good quality and priced right.
  8. John, that is a low ph. Did you use ag lime or pellatized? I would be shocked if the clover/chicory grow. Most plants will not grow good in the 4 range but weeds. I hope you get some growth. If you don't dont worry in time you will have a decent plot. This November do another soil sample and see where your ph is. Apply more lime than next May work the soil and plant a green manure crop to build your organic matter. You can either plant buckwheat or med red clover. Than in July cut and disc the crop into your soil while still green. Then plant Winter rye end of august. Repeat this until your soild ph is above 6. Both the buckwheat and winter rye will grow on any soil type. Also, on fertilizer the three numbers i.e. 10-10-10 means you are getting 10lbs of npk for every 100lbs you put down. Keep up the good work.
  9. well going to bow hunt(DIY) Ohio for 6 days this October.
  10. yep, unlimited does where I hunt. I only hunt with the bow. NJ is expensive to hunt.
  11. I have taken a 45 yard shot once but everything has to be right! Usually my shots come under 20 yards.
  12. 3 1/2 and up. Try not to use rack size.
  13. I try to get up the tree from 18-20ft. I feel I can judge the distance better at that height. Anything over that the kill zone strinks fast.
  14. I used the stealforce sabertooth(serrated with bleeder blades) with great blood trails. the only problem with them is they shot 6 inches low than my feild points.
  15. sportsmansguide, gaunder, bass pro, cabelas and ebay.
  16. John, great seed bed. Be careful with those commercial mixes. Not saying they all don't work but their mixes sometimes don't go well together. Also, try to plant your grains(oats, winter rye, winter wheat) the last week of august or the beginning of September. To early of a planting will alow them to get over 10 inches and than rank out. The deer like the new shoots under 8 inches. Keep up the good work
  17. Some believe serrated blades prevent clotting, so the deer will bleed more.
  18. Burmjohn, I did the same thing at my place but I built it myself with my dad and brothers. good luck with it!
