  1. That's fine with him. At least he's got a monster buck unlike some of the others here! LOL
  2. He was born in the Bronx. He grew up in Brooklyn, but lived in Ozone Park, Queens when he was the "Dapper Don". Even buried at St. Johns Cemetery in Queens.
  3. AT is from Queens NY. Hometown of the likes of Donald Trump and John Gotti. He ain't following anyone's order of operation!
  4. Give him some time. I hear it's a real brute, so he's got his hands full dragging him out!
  5. They are wasting their thousands then, because the Catskills is probably the least likely place in NYS to shoot true trophy sized bucks.
  6. No one said that those two stink in the post season, only that even the best of pitchers can be inconsistent. So you can have 4 first rate pitchers in your rotation and it still won't guarantee you a series victory. Most especially these days when most starters don't go much further than 5 innings so the emphasis on pitching is way over-rated. You wouldn't have teams hitting 300 plus home runs per season if the pitching was great these days, and it surely isn't.
  7. If bats go dead like the Yankees bats did even a third rate pitcher would look like Sandy Koufax pitching against them. Plenty of great pitchers have stunk in the post season, i.e. Maddux, Kershaw, Price to name a few.
  8. I hear this all the time but I call it BS. So what happened to Coles and Verlander in the first two games? They are like the premier pitchers in baseball. Neither one had it. Pitchers can suck any given start, so thinking that they will be the major key factor in post season success is not exactly accurate.
  9. He's got more points than I have strands of hair left on the top of my head!
  10. That would be my ultimate nightmare to have a deer drop and die in some suburban backyard where I'd have to knock on their door to ask for permission to retrieve it. I don't care if I'd never get a chance to kill a deer again, but I won't be hunting in a place where this could potentially happen.
  11. No, at 62 I don't think it's a good idea to use a climbing tree stand. Deer can be shot from the ground, too. Much safer than fumbling with a climber.
  12. I don't care how good the hunting is or how big the bucks are. Absolutely NO way would I ever hunt in such an environment. Having a smart ass punk kid spewing obscenities at me would put me close to the brink. That is the last thing I want when I am out hunting. Hunting should be an escape from such ignorant humanity and not being put right in the middle of it!
  13. It's funny. Queens is very ethnic and always has been, but it's the folks with the Anglo sounding names that will sooner have issues with your dead deer than will the Asians, Hispanics or Middle-Eastern, so go figure that one out.
  14. Growing up in Queens NY back in the 60's and 70's it honestly wasn't a big deal. You had quite a few people who hunted from the city back then and most brought back deer strapped to their vehicles. People weren't as nuts back then as they are now. I remember one Greek dude who had shot a really nice buck. He must have had it strapped to his trunk for a week and was driving it all around the city showing it off. LOL That surely wouldn't swing today!
  15. Yeah, Olivia wanted to watch our meat, too.
  16. Since he is so anal about scent, what does he do if a hunter needs to pee or crap while in the stand? Does he allow it?? Maybe he makes them wear Depends while on the stand?
  17. No, that isn't an option. He does all the cavity searches himself. He doesn't want any women in camp. He doesn't want any girlie smells on anyone's equipment or clothing. Plus, just as boxers are told to stay away from women to avoid weak knees, he doesn't want any of his hunters getting weak knees 20 feet up in a tree in his flimsy stands. It's a liability issue.
  18. Don't forget to hand over the cell phone. That guy does body cavity searches just to make sure you aren't sneaking it to the stand.
  19. Close to what line? You two come up with some real doozies. Not like most of the people here don't already know this.
  20. Don't know if it's racist, lots of people throw around the "racist" term these days for things that really aren't. I'd say it's more of a STUPID statement on his part. Nothing unusual coming from him actually.
  21. Duh, I should have read the title of the thread. 244lbs.
  22. I'm sure he confiscates his clients cell phones so they don't do anything crazy like post on a ""live from the woods" thread on a hunting forum while on the stand!
  23. Might be, but still way more dangerous than a ladder stand. A lot easier for something to go haywire with that type of stand and not worth the risk from my perspective. It's funny how that guy is so anal about scent, equipment that might make noise, etc. and then he doesn't seem to be too worried about breaking his neck. He may think he's smart, but others might have a different opinion.
