  1. Good luck I hope they work for you! I have had some ridiculous long drags over a couple miles and I tried a couple different carts and sleds and a bunch of other things. The only thing that made it easier for me withou having any form of roads to use is the plastic sheet that has eyes in it to lash the deer in. I would say it made dragging 10-20% easier but was a pain to carry and I stopped using that as well. Dragging sucks but you have 9 months to recuperate. My adk buck last year was a 9 hr over 2 mile drag and it sucked big time! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. I try not to kill fawns and I try not to kill does with fawn until December. Fawns are bland but tender. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. Glad you have a backup! Scott is a good company and should have one in the mail as soon as they get the email. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. What an awesome article! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. It's called a kickstand and yes stays on when you shoot. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. The first cold north wind of the year never fails! What a crazy October night in the stand. 4 does ran out of the woods into the corn early. Shortly after a 4pt and a basket 8 came into the field and sparred for a few minutes the 4 finally ran away and the 8 walked right under me and started feeding right before dark the big 8 I have been after came out at 50yds these 2 went at it in the field right under me for half an hr well after dark I didn't climb out of my stand until after 7:30. A great night to be in the woods. The basket 8 and the 4 were both within 15yds during legal shooting hrs so that makes buck 6 and 7 that I have had in range and passed on this year. This is a pic of the 2 smaller bucks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. I found a set of rings I had that fit a picatinny rail so I put the vxr on one of my AR's and shot a bunch today. So I figured I would post a quick review. For starters I will say that I find the glass very similar to a VX3 very clear and crisp. The dot is very cool and makes things very fast your eye is truly drawn to the dot. In a practical hunting application I don't know if it makes a noticeable difference but cool nonetheless. The dot is very crisp and has great brightness adjustment. So far only shooting it for a couple hundred rounds at steel I am very happy with the purchase. I could see this scope really shining in low light on dark objects. I wish I would have had one when I was down south and pig hunting. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. Yup just shoot through it. The air in the barrel blows it out of the way way before the bullet touches it. I actually now use a finger from a latex glove with a wrap of tape around it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. This is the kickstand I was talking about. Works awesome. And was like 10$ I leave 1 in every one of my blinds. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. Coming from the guy that's said he had enough money to buy half of the Catskills I don't understand how you can be complaining about not seeing deer in "your spot." Either you suck at hunting or you are full of sh!t. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. No I hunt SZ as well so I guess your right I get 3 days in NZ and 14 in SZ. Not a bad deal at all. I quit worrying about keeping powder dry along time ago modern Inlines with a bit of tape over the barrel and you are good to go in the hardest of rains. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. I like 14 days and they gave us the best 14 at that. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. What can I say great minds think alike! That reminds me I killed a few with my custom shop model 7 in 7mm-08 with those Black Death pills as well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. If your bow is not properly tuned you are loosing a lot of your KE. As far as killing efficiency there is nothing better than a razor sharp broadhead swinging around in the vitals every step a deer takes. Me personally I hold a little back on a quartering away shot because I want a pass thru and avoid hitting oposite shoulder Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. Around home if I don't see a deer every sit it's a big disappointment! In the dacks it's a different story but I generally average a deer a day up there as well but I work a lot harder to see that 1. If I had to spend 5 days in the woods to see a deer I would be in a different spot not counting the dacks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. Ballistic tips were my favorite bullet until I stated shooting Barnes. I have killed a bunch of Deer with them in 270 and 30-06. I always shoot 130's out of my 270's but I'm sure 150's will do the same job. Have no fear on fouling the coated Winchester bullets are the cleanest rounds I have ever shot.

  17. That has to be the stupidest law NY has ever came up with and that is really saying something when talking about NY. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. The only 1 that I have 100% confidence in is cow manure. If I'm hunting a pasture or near a pasture I try to cover my boots in it. Back when I was milking cows I would wear my hunting clothes for morning milking then run to the woods and I never once was winded by a deer that I know of. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. I am proudly in this group! I am also looking forward to carrying my new Xbow afield. I love that it's only 10 days of the season. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. You buy a crossbow that can be decocked. I couldn't imagine having to shoot one every time I cocked it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. If in a spot with a good buck to die ratio there is not a bad time of the season to rattle! Decoys can be iffy any time of the season. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. First time all season I have had the right wind to hunt this stand! Only standing corn for well over a mile. Anyone want to bet against me seeing at least 5 deer tonight? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. Well 2 guys hung stands Friday night, 2 guys hunted Saturday morning and 2 guys hunted Saturday night. That's a lot of pressure on a 25 acre piece especially when there hasn't been much human pressure. That's more pressure than I put on 100 acres in a month. I understand that you have to do with what you have but as long as you are hunting just weekends I will bet you see the most deer Saturday mornings. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. After reading some of your posts I know I'm getting "stupider" as I get older. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  25. Pard I'm not trying to talk you out of anything and the last thing you need to do is justify your choices with me. I do however take great pleasure in reading your responses when you have absolutely no clue what you are talking about and attempt to put on the farce that you do. What makes it even more enjoyable is when you have 2 or 3 other guys being facetious in their responses to you and you completely miss the sarcasm. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
