Just came in for a half hour to dry out. After the rains stopped Bucks started moving about 1 hour later. Had one cruise by at 50 yards. I grunted, he looked, but kept going. He was no shooter tho but it was fun to finally reach for my bow just-in-case. This new ridge set-up feels promising. Heading out now

Guys, remember I said I found what looked like a recently used Buck bed on a ridge couple of days ago?
Behold, the owner:
I just pulled these pics. Now I need to figure out how to get 'im.

I understand completely what it's about . I'm positive the same guys that want to boycott dicks couldn't be bothered to pass on a year of hunting to stick it to NYS.
pretty sure the state would not give a damn to be honest. Any push-back has to take a more permanent and effective approach

I personally don't give a rats ass about AR platforms and who sells them.
The issue is far greater than this. And it is not about hunting either.

I’m not a biologist but I think it’s way too late for bucks to still have velvet . I’ve have a buddy that actually shot what he thought was a buck in late November rocking velvet but it was actually a doe . I’m going to say you seen a doe with head gear.
Definitely a Buck

I need to get the pic off my phone, but, I had to drop someone off at a certain college in the Amherst region this afternoon. As I was heading back to the car park I spotted a Buck with about 5 or 6 doe in a front yard. Just hanging out. I walked over and took a pic. He was still in velvet! Anyone seen this before? Do tame Bucks hold onto their velvet longer?

As someone who lives in ski-country I cannot recommend anything less than ALL or 4 wheel drive in deep snow. I have tried driving front wheel with snow tires in the past. The issue is night and day. Snow tires however are necessary, even with all-wheel drive I find, BUT, snow tires + front wheel did not cut it. The driving was still precarious and prone to the back kicking out. Front wheel drive is almost worthless when you get stuck.
Anyone who comes to our house with snows and front wheel drive in snowy conditions always get stuck...always . I keep a shovel in my car to assist in digging out front wheel drivers.

Third Migrant Caravan Forms in Central America Heading for U.S. Border
-
Gave it about 4 hours before the light rain became too heavy. I did find what looks like a large buck bed on a ridge tho. Threw a camera by it to see what comes and goes over the next few days. Might need to invent a strategy to hunt it if turns out to be active. There was a large fresh track near it.

Sadly I have to get work and abandon the nicest hunting days thus far. I saw a smallish 6 on the walk out. We stared at one another for a while. He seemed relatively unmoved by my presence. Hopefully 2moro is as splendid.

Trump should charter a cruise ship and deliver the entire caravan to whichever of those countries agrees with that UN bs

Trump has said they will erect tent cities for these people. Sounds like a terrible idea to me. This is going to become like France, where they have permanent migrant camps at the borders of target nations.

Well...the weather report was wrong again. Finally had to give up on this relentless rain we were not supposed to be having.

Hunting behind the house this morning (9h). 2 spikes walked past me around 9:00 then at 9:45 this guy walked out. Personal best with the bow! Quartering away shot, got liver and one lung. Wasn’t a pass through so blood trail turned into a grid search. He ran about 300 yards but I was able to see him for most of it because it was a crp field. Very thankful the neighbor didn’t mind me looking around on his property.

Rain died off to a large extent and I got a couple of hours in stand. In for pizza and coffee now, but heading back for the evening soon. My first attempt to get down for coffee was cut short. I was hunting the heavy bedding that lies on the neighbors side, waiting for something to dart out. The wind was in my favor, coming out of the bedding area. The breeze died down as I began to pack-up and I got a very strong whiff of Buck, so strong in fact I figured one was on the way out. I waited 20 minutes and did a little rattle, but no horns presented themselves. I will be hitting this stand again for the evening. Might even sit till dark just to see whats around. I do need to wear extra socks tho.

So I learned 2 things this morning! 1st I love my tree umbrella!!!
2nd I should have put it a little lower! I'm still getting wet a little on my legs.
Theres a learning curve here. To low can't stand up occasionally. And it could be hard to draw a bow. To high! Still get a bit wet! But hell i'm in the stand either way
I attached one of my umbrellas to a bow hanger so I can move it a little to account for rain angle . I may hit up this stand a little later if the rains keep up...which looks to be the case
