  1. I hear what you are saying but I think in most of ny state an 8 is 2+. I know where there is ample nutriants it can happen but for most of us an 8 is not an 1.5 year old deer.
  2. Yes that's how I have seen it done. You can be staring at a spot with no blood spray it and see bubbles so you know there is blood there. When you go in go to some last blood and spray it so you know how it looks.
  3. If luna needs some dog biscuits to get her through the 2 weeks let me know what kind. I will send her a box in the mail. Everybody loves a good package when they are down and out!!.
  4. I know he shuould have called but maybe he shot it off the property and blood trailed it in?
  5. If there is a hardware store or super markey close by go grab a spray bottle and some hydrogen peroxide. Work amazing even when the blood is washed out a bit. It will bubble right up.
  6. Out of anybody here you know the shot the best. How it looked and felt. If you think you need to track it go slow. Like you are still hunting slow. If you can wait it out give him another hour or 2. It's a hard wait. If the shot was a little back and hit the lungs and guts you most likely got the liver too. Dead deer just don't push it.
  7. Go back during the day. You might pick that arrow out quick. Congrats on a great buck
  8. I hunt public land and have seen people walk by and a deer following them pretty much. If the hikers are a regular thing don't worry about it.
  9. Down there If you know someone who has property and some woods. You can see some giants. I have family down there and they say they see them all the time.
  10. I have the bibs and coat. Walking they are quite but if you sit against a tree the coat seems to grab at the bark and makes a little noise. I think it is more annoying to the hunter than anything. If a deer heard it I would be amazed. as for size I like a large coat and order a xl to put lots of layers underneath. It is BIG on me i could stick enough clothes under it to be Ralphy's little brother from the Christmas story. The stuff is super warm I canot walk in it as it is too warm but make for a great all day sit layer! I have had my stuff for 5 or so years and the stuff looks like new.
  11. I think anybody would stay if there was a nice buck coming at you when sunset aka (quiting time) rolled around. If it was standing 13 yards in front of you 5 minutes after legal shooting time specially with a bow you wouldn't take that shot?????? We all know this answer. Then again I would just take a picture and hope he comes back the next day!!!
  12. I am chewing at the bit!! The last few mornings have been absolutely beautiful. Good luck to those who are out. This work thing can really get in the way!
  13. At least it isn't 10 degrees out! It makes for a cold sit in the dark!!
  14. The problem with state land is you get great people and some real bad apples. I spent 10-15 years hunting state land. The first few years I would tell people generally where I was standing. Next time I would see them combing the area until they saw me if I was hunting. Then there would be a treestand in the area! I became pretty tight lipped after that. To the other side, I also met some great people in there. One guy I go on out of state hunts with and have become great friends. So it is definitely a double edge sword.
  15. Need a pilots license too so we can get there in time for sunrise! A plane would be good too!!!!
  16. If we did we would have everyone in town trespassing that's for sure!! We would need a good lawyer to scare some people!! Wonder who we could get??Lol
  17. That's one hell of a property!!. It's amazing how different the property's differ just from the east of NY to the west. We get some big deer but not near the numbers you guys have! Knowing other people from near rochester they all say the same thing and have similar pics. If it wasn't suck a long ridea I would be looking for lease properties out there that's for sure!!
  18. I sent this to a another member. Makes good sense and there's a lot into this if you watch it.
  19. Well I know why we are not seeing deer! On the way in to school today I saidto my daughter " ok let's see how many deer we see. You have to look hard". My daughter says" Dad we won't see any deer today it is to cold outside. They are all inside staying warm". So there you have it. Deep thoughts from a 4 1/2 year old!! Lol
