The big buck on the far right looks like he has three front legs. I'm sure it's the angle of the photo but it looks a bit odd.

I needed to call their online customer service # to get help to set up my daughter in the online system and a recorded message said that lifetime licenses will be mailed out August 17 which is today. They also said that if you don't get it by September 1 you can go to a license issuing agent and get it printed for free. That doesn't exactly give one too much confidence that you will get it by September 1 does it??

Hunters are a funny bunch. We've been hearing for a good many years now that hunter numbers are dwindling and that we need to bring new hunters to the ranks. Yet when someone mentions that there may possibly be more hunters in the woods this year everyone is getting nervous. It's like yeah we need more hunters as long as they stay at least 2 miles away from my spot.

Gun laws are not nearly as strict in PA compared to NY or am I somehow mistaken??

There are thousands of BS deer stories all over the internet and elsewhere. I surely wouldn't get worked up about this story in the least. You will probably never know the real truth so no point in wasting your energy on this.

Filmore?? It was William McKinley who was assassinated when TR took over.

The old online system was way better than this new one. Lots of bugs and quirks with this new one. Got thru it but not very user friendly. Typical NYS where nothing ever improves. Black lives matter is probably receiving the money saved on this second rate licensing system!

Also in the last 100 years Harry Truman took over when Franklin Roosevelt died in office.

Gerald Ford took over when Nixon resigned. Although Ford wasn't the VP on the ticket in 1972. It was Spiro Agnew who also had resigned and then Gerald Ford was chosen as his successor who eventually became president.

I would agree. I don't care how racist this sounds, but white Americans are not ready for another black president, and with Biden on top of the ticket her taking over the presidency is a very real possibility. He will win a good many black votes for putting her on the ticket that may have not turned out to vote, but at the same time I think he will lose more white votes, the ones he really needs to win this election. It will be very interesting to see how this all pans out. Right now Trump by his own stupidity and blunders has put himself in a deep enough hole. Being down 10% in the polls at this stage of the game is not good. Will the votes Biden loses here by choosing Harris be enough to win it for Trump? Who the hell knows!

This was the situation with LBJ. He took over close to 3 years into Kennedy's presidency and then won his own term in 1964 and then chose not to run in 1968, but he could have. So in total he could have been president for about 9 years if he ran and won in 1968.

Absolutely possible. But, most folks would make it clear that the photo was taken in another state since this is a NYS hunting forum and NYS does not allow mineral licks.

Looks like the DEC clarified things for Rattler in the new 2020-2021 regulation book.

Isn't it a huge blunder by the NRA that they remained incorporated as a non-profit in this liberal cesspool called New York?? Why didn't they incorporate in some other more gun friendly state long ago? Hell, they don't even try to fight NY gun laws knowing they don't have a chance in the world to win, yet they remained incorporated in NYS?? What kind of sense does that make? They literally asked for trouble here in my honest opinion. Most especially since there seems to be plenty of evidence of wrong doing by it's leadership. Too late now. Win or lose this case they will have to face the music. They set themselves up for this.

LaPierre looks like a wax mannequin to me. I've never seen a smile or even a trace of one on his mug. Maybe he's really dead but the NRA made a wax replica of him that they bring to the TV interviews. They play the same recorded talking points over and over again while the mannequin's mouth moves up and down.

This is nothing but DeBlasio and Cuomo talking out of their asses again. Like there isn't enough congestion getting over and thru the bridges and tunnels into NYC without checkpoints?? Vehicles would be lined up for hours upon hours trying to get thru. Will never happen. If they do try it maybe the fools of NYC and NYS that keep voting for these two asswipes will finally realize what they voted for.

What does the "Bngo" title of the thread refer to? Is that the name you gave the buck? Like B-N-G-O was his name-oh! LOL

At least my great great great granddaddy was considered to be "honest". Must be something in that Hungarian goulash to make Rattler and his "cousin" VJP think and talk exactly alike. LOL

OK, sure. And Abe Lincoln was my great great great grandfather. LOL

If you're not the old forum member Mr VJP you must have a twin that you were separated at birth from. LOL

The problem is that Trump's complete sentences come out of his a$$, so they aren't making him sound too much more intelligent than Biden.

I find it funny how people say that Biden is senile and all and he very well may be. At the same time Trump sure as hell is a few cards short of a full deck, too. Not much to look forward to in the next for years unfortunately.

My apologies then. I know there was a big conversation about this a while back and thought you said you got them. Maybe it was Belo then. Pygmy will be sending you your official "country boy" membership card soon.

I think he told us once that he gets manicures and pedicures, so I don't know if he qualifies as a "country boy"?

I've hunted on and off with a bow over the years but could never get into it or ever saw the fascination others see in it. Way too many bits, pieces and parts to bows for my liking and all way overpriced. I'll let you guys slug it out over crossbows. Give me a decent rifle and a box of ammo and I'm good.
