Happy Birthday fellas......

Yes, nothing on my list either although I do adore Cabela's gift cards.

You'd be surprised how many stupid people are on hunting forums........

Confirmed at press conference today that he did indeed have a scope on his weapon.

I mentioned the BO because we need one more thing to bicker over along with sunrise/sunset hours..............and Old bubba loved to argue the BO issue! He was 110% against mandatory blaze orange.

Let’s get bubba back here and discuss mandatory Hunter Orange..........

Yea mine too. I’ve never gotten so many emails on one thread. Something is busted in the system!!!

I don’t have any desire to drive these days. I dogged for the older guys for many years. BTDT and the t shirt is too small......

Can't know and if I assumed I'd make an ass out of you and me.

What are you talking about? I'm showing that a long range pistol is capable at extended ranges as some here didn't know of such handguns. Nothing more.......

Archery score wise my best buck. IIRC he was 123 and change....and he weighed 204lbs, shot in East Aurora.

Once again, not requested but a stud in my eyes, here's my oldest via DEC biologists in Buffalo. Aged at 5.5 years old and dressed at 182lbs. Shot in Naples.

Pennsylvania I know, it AIN'T NY. Deal with it, I like the picture..... (Oh yea, I killed him with a .243 Put that in your pipe and smoke it)

Biggest via record book (muzzleloader) 140 6/8 NET (gross is BS)

Thanks to the Photobucket debacle, all my stuff went up in smoke. Lets see if this works. Heaviest...... Archery 217lbs of stud (4 legged)

And since I was uploading pics from an external hard drive (if that's the proper term) from an old computer of mine, here is some pics to help explain: The bench & setup: The terrain: Pistol & shooter:

Late to the party.........Hopefully it was a good day. Happy Birthday!

Imgur is what I’m using now. I’ll see if I can get my stuff back up when I’m not working.....:)

I stick with a one-piece lightweight rifle and instead invest in a quality pack so you can haul the deer out in a more efficient way.

Here's a picture of my buck..................... Yea, I didn't get one. Saw a bunch but not the right one. Yesterday (opening day) I saw 20 deer; 4 buck and 16 doe. A half rack crotch horn for sure and three others at about 325 yards late in the day. If I was sure one of those three were legal I would have taken a poke as I had a great rest. Also, I saw a DANDY bear at about 200 yards. I put the cross hairs on him when he paused to look my way, oh I could have dusted him! It was a long day staring into the sun....... Today I only hunted till 10:30am, there was a pretty stiff breeze and once again the sun was brutal. I only planned on hunting that long as I had to get back to the real world. Right off the bat I had a flock (no kidding) of 10 deer bust out into a field about 300 yards above me. There HAD to be a buck in there but nope, all Kojak's. Around 8:30am a buck that looked exactly like he could have been the 4pt (crotch horn) buck that the Pennsylvania Game Commission used in their syllabus to describe what NOT to shoot as it would be illegal! Try as I could I couldn't put a brow tine on him. Around 10:15am I heard some shooting from the north west of me and it sounded like they had a buck on the run. After about 20-30 seconds I started glassing up on top in the direction the shots came from. All of a sudden I spot a set of white antlers on top of a deer going to the south. NOW a guy starts to put some lead in the air; I watched and on his fourth or fifth shot down the buck went. Those guys drive all but the first couple and last couple hours each day and although they are hunting the same property I do, I have no voice in the matter. It fries my ass when they push out the areas I'm hoping to catch a buck sneaking out of or sit right straight up the hill above the lane I'm watching. In my opinion it is a dangerous practice and I think they are doing it just to get under my skin. Yea, it worked. I've had a pretty good run there over the years, I don't know exactly but maybe 8-10 bucks over time..... All in all it was probably the best 1.5 days ever in PA for me as far as deer seen and a bonus bear. Oh and a bald eagle too! Could have been my last year there, who knows.

Swamps should be frozen by the time you're mucking around in these boots.

Mine came today also. I wear a size 12 and got 13. Good thing.....

On stand in 3A Pennsylvania. Yesterday was exciting; 20 deer and four were sub legal bucks as far as I could tell. Also saw a beauty of a bear that posed nicely for a giimi if season was open and I had a tag. The crew here killed 2 bucks and I know of one other a friend from Home killed not far from where I hunt I’ll hunt a half day then head back to the real world. I’m typing in the dark and I don’t have my reading lasses so you have to excuse if this is “kindled”.

Hold what, the funnel? ohhh I see what you did there........

I guess that’d work just fine!
