I'm sure he's running back to the deposit site at the moment to take a few pics! LOL

Don't they say on this forum "pictures or it didn't happen"? I don't know if we want pictures of that. LOL

It sounds like you didn't have exclusive rights to this property. So lets say another hunter was set up a few hundred yards away from you and was calling and a Boone & Crockett turkey waddles by you on his way towards the other hunter. Would you shoot at that bird or let him walk towards the other hunter?

And all the venison is going into a crockpot down at the DEC station. The stew and chili should be ready by tonight for the beer bash!

Even if it was the law, who would ever know? Hard enough to get a DEC officer to check out game violations in the field, I highly doubt they will be looking in your freezer for dates written on the packages of meat.

For your sake I'm glad that wasn't a Yeti cooler you had in your picture. Angry mobs of NRA members are on the lookout for them! LOL

Most of the venison that is consumed in this country comes from free ranging wild deer. In many states it is illegal to sell wild game meat, and that is a good thing. In our part of the world raising cattle has been very profitable and thus our society has been programmed that beef should be the meat of choice. You go elsewhere in the world and beef is not used nearly as much as it is in this country. Venison IS good, and to me and many others it is preferable over beef. Just because it is not sold in stores has absolutely nothing to do with the quality of it.

I can respect the other reasons why people hunt. I know people who hunt just to get away from their nagging wives, but that isn't relevant to the original question in this thread. I for one would like to see what is actually MOST important to deer hunters. The meat or the antlers, and where there is no in-between or any ifs ands or buts. If one can't decide, then they shouldn't vote. Just like during a presidential election, we either vote for the republican or democrat, and if we don't like either, we stay home and let the others decide.

I think someone should put up a real voting poll on this, where the only choices are meat or antlers. FSW has said in the past that deer hunting is 95% plus all about antlers, while wolc123 somehow has his own statistics favoring meat hunters. Having a poll with only the two choices would settle matters once and for all here in my opinion.

Meat. If antlers were somehow the only thing I was allowed to keep from deer hunting I would not bother to hunt.

Here one, sort of. http://amishdepot.com/

I call BS on this video. Yeah, it looks impressive hauling that big critter on his back like that, but he's probably only doing it to get a quick video to promote his safari business. As soon as the cameras are turned off he leaves it to the black guys to haul it the rest of the way. As is the usual!!

What difference does that make? We thought you were simply looking for a place that will take your old TV?

Best Buy still takes them. Find one, that will be your easiest option. Drop it off and you're done.

Some here are so predictable that if they were bucks they'd get shot at sunup on opening morning. They'd be so easy to pattern that there would be no sport in it at all!

Prison ain't too bad. Free room and board, wifi and a gymnasium. I guess I'm getting something in return for all the tax money I've paid NYS over the years. The showers can be a bit tough, but there was always someone trying to screw me when I was a free man, too, so not much has changed. Pygmy will be paying me a visit this weekend. Said he'd bring me a home baked cake for Easter!!

Scroll to about 1:15 of this video. We need one of these to scoop Cuomo and the rest of them up!!

"The Tittie Blob"

Not much sense in anything Hollywood says or does. They all live in La La land. If you are a hard-working straight white male, you are the lowest form of life in their opinion. To hell with them!!

Well, they do say that when you get old you become childlike again. LOL Rattler, Philo, Papist, just wait! LOL

How about his cabinet, do you think they like him? He came into office saying that he will drain the swamp so he started appointing some outsiders, many of who he has already fired and replaced. So I guess HIS swamp needed some draining, too, and then who was his most recent replacement?? John Bolton, who was one of the old swamp dwellers, the type that Trump despised at the start. You guys seem to think Trump can do no wrong, but others are coming to the conclusion that he has NO clue to what he is doing. Won't be long before NO one wants to work for him, and could you honestly blame them?? He will rave about you on Monday and by Saturday he will be tweeting that you've been replaced, before you were even told that you were being replaced. Unbelievable.

Good to know that you weren't one of those who hated Obama, but I can assure that there were plenty to take your place. Even republicans hate Trump. Is that the lefts fault? Do you think guys like McConnell and Ryan like him, to name only two? Many republicans are appalled by his antics. How about all his cabinet members he has fired? How about his wives? He is not exacty Mr. Lovable. Not that he has to be to be president, but just pointing this out. He has rubbed people the wrong way for most of his life. I doubt too many people will be blowing kisses at him, even the ones who voted for him. He is what he is, but I don't understand why some of you are so surprised that people hate him?

Governor Cuomo was at the Easter day parade and was very annoyed that a float celebrating the 2nd amendment was allowed to march in the parade. In protest he decided to lie down in front of it to not allow it to pass by the main viewing area on Main Street. The float was not deterred and continued to run right over the Governor. Cheers erupted from the crowd! All the CCW permit holders in attendance pulled out their weapons and in unison fired joyously into to the air in celebration!!

I'm glad someone else asked this question first. Yeah, the left is dumping on Trump ( not like he doesn't give them plenty of fodder daily ), but does anyone really think there was LESS hatred towards Obama by the right?? Now that would be seriously funny if people thought that there was less. LOL By the way, I hope Philo sends all of us forum members an autographed copy of his book on Obama. Looking forward to seeing it on the best sellers list!

No kidding!! Police were called when Bubba and Doc got into a scuffle. Doc wanted to climb on board Bubba's float wearing a blaze orange vest and hat, but Bubba would have no part of it. Several officers needed medical attention after Bubba fell off the float on top of them.
