  1. Same here. Ordered some car parts two weeks ago with estimated 3d delivery. They have been in Maryland Hub now for 10 days. All tracking says is package is arriving late Meanwhile Fedex got me a package ordered same day in 3 days
  2. Been using Pyrodex pellets or powder for 20 yrs and never an issue. Can always shoot 3 SSTs before needing to swab barrel. Shots are always consistent and never a misfire on any of my inlines
  3. Order online from Cummings Nursery near Ithaca. There will ship the bare root whips to your house. Focus only on disease resistant apple trees like Enterprise, Freedom, Jonafree, and Liberty. Keiffer pear is also good. Avoid the store brand apples like Macintosh, golden and red delicious etc. They succumb to disease and need an intensive spray program to produce any significant quality fruit I have had just as much luck planting 1-2 year old bare root "whips" as I do planting potted larger trees. They catch up quick and seem to establish better
  4. This was tradition for years. The Friday after Thanksgiving. My uncle and friends had a 9oo acre farm in Holland NY we pushed most of the day. Man, did it produce some tremendous bucks. DUring my teenage years and early 20s I waited all year for this day
  5. I dont think any number of preference points is a guarantee. I received one 9P tag landowner preference but my hunting partner is trying to get one also.
  6. I realize that. 8P is pretty difficult too. Trying to help out my hunting partner
  7. Anyone interested in swapping their 9P for an 8P DMP?
  8. Barbed wire around the perimeter makes me think there are probably some major tresassing issues
  9. Gotta love the old muscle too. First pic is my 67 Camaro SS RS. Second is my 1970 Nova SS396 L78 coming home, first time it had seen the light of day in 20yrs. After 3 months of redoing nearly everything mechanical, it is finally back on the road. If the rice rocket next to me doesn't understand the sound of the solid lifters rattling away at the stoplight, he has no idea of the beast under the hood that is about to be unleashed
  10. Mine was a Remington Nylon 66 .22 rifle. My Dad used to keep it in its box in his closet. I knew exactly where it was and used to sneak in there and look at it for hrs each day. Can still smell the brand new plastic/Hoppes #9 smell LOL
  11. I have a Remington Sendero in 25-06. One of my favorite guns.
  12. Hey Larry Any rust or blemishes on metal? How about stock?
  13. Best shop ever. Phil was the best bow tuner I have ever met. Several years ago Gander Mtn had screwed up my bow and he made it perfect. Subsequently bought a new bow from him several years later and was also tuned to perfection
  14. I have a Remington SP-10 and the thing is absolutely deadly on geese. I cannot get any of my 3.5 12 ga to pattern BB or 2 anywhere near as good as this gun. It has virtually no recoil as it is heavy and gas operated. In fact, it kicks less than an 870 shooting 2 3/4" loads. In fact, it is my most borrowed gun as many of my buddies want it for goose hunting. I have no idea why one of the posts above states it has a small safety and this somehow effected their turkey hunting???? I have shot hundreds of geese with this gun and never even thought twice about the safety Now a 10ga pump--that may be pretty brutal on the shoulder
  15. Larry--awesome buck! Was that 8N?
  16. If you could find a Remington Sendero in 25/06 you would have one of the sweetest field guns ever made
  17. I definitely recommend you see a GI doctor. You should have an EGD to determine why you are not responding to the anti-reflux medications. Many things can mimic reflux and not respond to the medications. If you would like you can PM me where abouts you live and I can tell you who you should see. I practice in the Fingerlakes region and will tell you who I would trust my family with
  18. I have the same gun in .444 Marlin. Awesome gun
  19. it lookks more like tree decay or insects or even a woodpecker. i have never seen a rub "chip" like that
  20. I agree. That doesnt look like a rub
  21. Getting one big buck is luck. Getting a nice buck each and every year is not luck. It means taking your hunting to the next level -wind mapping your property to know exaxtly how each wind blows across your property -not hunting a stand unless the wind is perfect and remains perfect -getting all of your stand set up my early summer and remaining out of your prime hunting areas until after the season -discipline to pass on many many small bucks and being fine with having buckless seasons -remaining as scent free as possible -reading as much as possible from experts such as Neil Dougherty/ Stergis/ etc -starting your scouting for next year immediately after the current season ends -trying to hunt perimeter stands on your property and only hunting high-impact stands when conditions are perfect and chances of a mature buck moving are high
  22. That tree is begging for a strap on/chain on portable stand! They would never see you in there and it would be much safer and much easier than building a wood stand
  23. Bucks are definately searching and the dominant bucks in the area may very well already be hooked up with the first estrous does. Saw quite a few searching bucks this week at all times of day in 8N. Also am seeing lone fawns without their mothers. Jumped a real nice buck bedded with a lone doe at 2pm while riding my bike down near Hemlock Lake on Wed.
