with that many ticks on it, the meat is definitely ruined. you'd better drop it off at my house so I can dispose of it properly!!!

Trying to plan a trip out there this spring with my girlfriend. found a ton of guides online but I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations. definitely prefer wading to drift boating, I just want to learn how to catch them so we can take future trips on our own. and must be spin or centerpin fishing not fly fishing. any help would be greatly appreciated

that 2nd one looks real cool with his brow tines curled back!!!
-
definitely meat for me and my girlfriend. if we got it then we'll eat venison 3-4 nights a week. don't get me wrong, there's nothing better than a huge rack but it's not everything.

found these claw marks on a tree about 40yds from one of my stands. tree is huge, at least 18 inch diameter. heard about some bear sightings 4-5 miles away so that seems like a possibility. saw a bobcat down there last year but I don't know if they scratch trees like that. or it's the biggest friggin whitetail rub ever (fingers crossed). anyone ever see this before???

keep all the unused tags in a folder, used tags get taped on the side of my gun cabinet

20% tops, backstraps become roasts along with some of the bigger cuts of the hind quarter. most of the rest of the back legs become stew meat chunks. this year we tried doing some bone-in roasts from the front shoulder, cooked one last night in the crock pot, came out great. kinda like a pot roast. gonna do something like that with the shanks too.

thought I shot a doe, turns out to be a button buck. happened so fast I didn't see the little 1.5" horns. gonna be some tasty meat though. first time using mechanical broadheads and I can't say enough about the wasp jackhammer. shot was a touch low but it tore his lungs up good. didn't go 60 yards. just happy to get the first one down for the season!!!

planning on an all day sit, hopefully it's gets cut short!!!

I care about does, they don't taste like idiots!!! so no one ever gets daytime trail cam pics of bucks in the summer when it's warm out???
-
shot a doe about 715am that day too. plenty of daytime pics on the trail cam when it was hot out too. unless it's pouring rain I go hunting whenever I get the chance
-
oh ok, makes sense now

am I missing something??? where in his post did it say anything about shooting them out of season?

First Day / Few Days for the Bow Season - What are you going to do?
518BowSlayer replied to burmjohn's topic in Bow Hunting
small bucks are getting a pass at least in early bow season(trying to hold out for the 10 pointer on the trail cam)but the first decent doe to walk by might be in trouble. never brought home a fall turkey before so they are on the list too -
Mossberg 500 combo, about $350 brand new. smooth bore barrel and rifled slug barrel with scope(make sure to use sabot slugs for that) all you need is an full or extra full turkey choke and your good for almost anything in NY

WHOS EXCITED 12 DAYS LEFT TILL BOW SEASON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
518BowSlayer replied to HUNTINGS IN MY DNA's topic in Bow Hunting
it's gonna be a LONG 12 days!!! -
I'm getting deer on my trail cam at all hours of the day and night (probably because it's raining acorns in front of my stand) so I'll probably sit all day right from the start and see what happens. Turkeys are coming in right around 3:30pm almost everyday too so that might be too tempting to pass up. Even if I get a bird I could stash it somewhere and wait the rest of the evening out for deer. Plus it's way easier to hunt all day in early bow season because we've all been waiting almost 9 months for it!!!
