Wait a minute......woodies already? Thats pretty cool. How many cameras do you have out? Seems like a pile of different set ups. Nice......

Nice....... Open sights or scope? Do you handload for it, if so, what bullet/powder?? Thanks. Maybe the OP can get some tips from you??

How many deer have you killed with the 357?

I don't think THAT is legal either...............................<grin>

I saw on the local news here tonight that the father is in rough shape from a terminal disease and has no recollection of the incident. Strange deal........

I was thinking of the robo dove decoys in Pennsylvania that we wanted (!) to use. The Robo duck is legit here in NYS.

Spring turkey season can bring out some "stalkers" . Guys will hear a hen turkey call and start stalking it. Lord knows I've had guys sneak in on my calling. Very scary stuff when your sitting still, with your back to tree and you see a shadowy figure sneeking in on a hen call that your making. Add a real gobbler gobbling in the distance and guys get a bit anxious and loose the few marbles the might have left in their melon. I've never been shot at but I've been stalked more than a few times on VERY private property by guys trespassing and it'll scare the B-jeezuz out of you. If you use that decoy, with a BEARD of all things, honestly, your taking a VERY dangerous step. It ain't worth it, I promise you.

Good on you for checking with "the man" <grin> Hopefully its a legal as it looks like you put plenty of thought into it. STILL.......................an orange strap around the tree your hiding by wouldn't be a bad idea.

Is that thing going to be legal? Motorizied decoys for waterfowl are not. I know you don't have any amplified calls coming from it but, wow. I think your pushing it a bit. Regardless, I wouldn't hunt with that thing near me. Great way to get shot........................ You insured? As usual, I'm probably missing part of the story. Fill me in!

What kind of safety harness was NYBOB wearing when he had this trouble?

Coming into Buffalo? I'd be surprised if the Gun Center doesn't have it.

Too bad on the Porkers, Pygmy. Sounds like it was a great trip nontheless!

Your FIRST handgun? And you want to start with a gun for deer/bear? Price range? Recoil tolerance? Scope? Revolver, semi auto, break action or bolt action? Hold on, have you shot a handgun much? Ah heck, buy a .22 semi auto or revolver, shoot a couple thousand rounds this summer and have fun!! Learn and get some experience.

Nice healthy looking critters.

My, what healthy critters you have! Both the fox & the 'yote look like they have been eating well.

The Spyderco is the best thing to hapen to MY sharpening skills in 50 years. <<grin>>

Electric sharpener is going to be fast & easy but would take off to much steel per use than I'd like. If you have inexpensive knives, no problem. The rental places use cheaper knives and grind the snot out of them and eventually just junk them. Hand sharpening would be too time consuming for them. I have been using a Spyderco product for 5-7 years now and have been very happy with it.......................... http://spyderco.com/catalog/details.php?product=77

You know, I just saw an ad over on the right side of the screen for Verizon FIOS. Do they know that is the content in this post? Damnit all............................................ I've seen quite a bit of that lately on my computer. I was looking at Canon cameras lately and lo and behold, all the Canon ads pop up everywere I go. Jeezus HC. They really are watching us.

Thanks for info guys. I'll probably pull the trigger next week. Only thing is..................I HATE CHANGE!! We'll survive.

Who has it? Feelings? I got an offer of $89.95/month for 2 years for internet (15/somethings) TV (Prime?) and unlimited phone. Plus, after 60 days they send you a $300 Visa card. It is available on my street and I have some nieghbors that have it. I'll talk with them also. Is the "slower" internet speed faster than my Verizon DSL service I'm currently running? (I'm not sure what my speed is now but I'm paying for the basic DSL I believe) Seems like a pretty fair offer? I'd be saving a chunk over my combined bills now from Verizon phone & DSL and The Dish Network (TV). Thoughts?

Another way to put it......... A bowl of M&M's on the counter and nobody is looking...............................<Grin>

It is a great way to hook up with "old" friends, correct? Things can start out very innocently and casual. Hey, how's the family? Oh, thats too bad. Maybe we should have coffee? Just friends, right? (NOT directed at you WNYBH) Seen it..........................................................

I can hear that exaust now.....................................ahhhh, music to my ears!!

I can see where FB could screw up relationships for people. Not much good can come out of it from what I've seen. NOT a good place for a married guy/gal to be hanging out, IMO.

All they can do is say no. New goods I assume?
