  1. Sweet. Average size is 13-30 pounds. Don't know what to compare him to in size to guess actual weight.
  2. wonder how many of those deer have radio transmitter collars or whatever they are on when harvested ? We go to Ithaca in the summer every year. Almost every single urban deer has a collar. And what does when do if you shoot a collared deer ? Any good recipes for the collar ?
  3. Outback ? I did that with mine years back. Fold the seats , tie the legs up ad you can do it. Getting them on the roof by yourself not so easy. I now have new model and it's higher. Got trailer hitch installed at uhaul /$220 versus $580 at dealer for same thing. Deer carrier is the cats meow. Flip deer on it , couple of ratchet straps and off you go. Good luck to you today
  4. Used to skip high school to fish. Warm Genny scream ale pounders in the cardboard box. By late afternoon someone was eating the bait and biting heads off the stupid sunfish. Oh wait , bottle of Jack contributed to that too
  5. cmon , his name is Grampy. He's in bed by 9 pm. lol. Just kidding Grampy. Good luck. I hope to be out there soon myself
  6. 3rd deer for the freezer. 11-12 came flying out of the dark pines down in front of me. Tails were down and hauling azz. They ran right under my stand. Don't even know if there was a buck or bucks in the mix. Picked out biggest body and bleated verbally , they locked up and shot her from 10 yards. It ain't easy picking something up in a scope that fast. Good thing I was only on 3x and not 9. Took out top of heart and I believe both lungs. 2 hours later of dragging I had her to my car. This was at 1:30. Still one either sex tag left for Monday and or Tuesday. Come on snow in 9H
  7. Took slow walk of 70 acre perimeter. Put up 2 slow bounding doe in golden rod. Not my property to shoot into. 75 yards off of it. Did find fresh hits on rubs up top as well. Maybe Monday I'll use the climber providing the wind being right. Back in stand for a bit
  8. Someone just touched off a round with slug gun on other mountain. And another. Add one more
  9. orange hat and vest on climbing peg. I'm in my ladder stand. Haven't heard a shot all day. Buck or doe on my to do list ...
  10. It stopped raining for the moment. Dark and overcast. Feels like a nice day to see deer ...or not
  11. 9H. 43/14 mph south wind and peeing out. Camo umbrella will be handy for the day. Looking to punch a tag. Good luck y'all
  12. pfft easy Rocky mountain oysters hang to the right and deer testes hang to the left. Thought everyone knew that
  13. I skipped yesterday completely 25+ mph constant winds. Bedding grounds off property I can hunt Stayed home and worked on honey do list. Honey owns " the thang " so ....
  14. Is that including putting up on boards ? I'm not fast but that sounds long. Have you tried my Windex to remove blood trick yet ? Spray , fur comb and wipe out with paper towels. I'm still perplexed at that mush sqush without a tail you caught. Maybe daughter and I will set a few ditches locally just to get out soon.
  15. All day tomorrow ( Thursday ) , all day Monday and most of Tuesday. Have dmps and an either sex tag. Still room in the freezer. Looks like I'm going to get wet tomorrow for sure. At least it's not 70 degrees or constant high winds however
  16. Lots of thoughts here http://huntingny.com/forums/topic/25915-possible-reasons-for-a-bad-gun-season/
  17. They get pretty feisty during mating season as a thought
  18. sorry but my nod goes to another Ruger 10/.22 or use the dang thing you got
