  1. We swap shifts, I worked 60 doubles this summer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. If you just like getting outdoors why do you care where the best hunting is, seems contradictory! I don’t remember the last deer I killed from a tree stand last 10+ years have been all “stalking, Still hunting and tracking, so again more excuses! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. As we all know stormy likes to complain and make excuses for his lack of ability . My two best scoring NY bucks came from DEP land. The funny thing is I had to drive 3+ hours SOUTH “toward the city” to get to them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. Just sitting out here knowing I have 88 days until I have to go back to work is reward enough seeing all the deer I’ve seen so far is just a bonus. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. Sure feels good to be in the woods today! Foggy damp morning. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. I’m a huge fan of single shots for first guns. The old H&R’s are very good and can be had for a couple hundreds the cva’s are very good as well. There are many reasons why I like single shots for a first real rifle but the biggest is knowing if it’s empty or loaded, if it’s empty it should be open if it’s loaded it should be closed, this takes out any guess work when everyone is excited in the heat of the moment.

  7. I wasn’t going to argue with you but it’s really the reason for your lack of passthroughs. Most people don’t realize how important a properly tuned bow for kinetic energy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. Prison guard for the state, we can swap shifts 365 days out. It takes 4 doubles a week for a couple months but it gives me hunting season off. It’s the only reason I have the job. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. Yea, fella with 3 young kids is working for me on thanksgiving and I’m working for him on Christmas. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. 9/27 through 12-24 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. Too slow for tracking. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. I meant to say snows in the trees not on the ground.. While it’s snowing and when the snows on the trees it’s too hard to try and keep a scope clean and dry. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. I wouldn’t consider myself a “good” hunter but I can say I have shot way more deer that were downwind of me than deer I have shot from stands I wasn’t in because I was worried about getting winded. Back when I did sit if the sign and activity was showing me a particular stand I would hunt it regardless of wind, the buck might change his routine tomorrow and you could miss your opportunity. Now that 95% of my bowhunting is done on my feet I check the wind from time to time but in the adks it changes with every 10 steps so you just have to hunt or you wouldn’t get anywhere. Other than using common sense and not pumping gas and wearing hunting clothes to Walmart I have virtually no scent mitigation routine. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. I changed the way I shot because I had shoulder surgery and it prevented me from being able to shoot with proper form. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. My Mutt has gotten it twice this year I’ve tried everything and if he gets wet he still smells like a skunk. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. My number 1 happens way before I step foot in the woods #practice- you have the whole year to prepare for the second that matters. Hunting the wind isn’t in my top 5 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. 82lbs 30” draw of the 40ish deer I’ve shot with this or similar setup I be had 1 not pass through and it hit far shoulder. Last year after shoulder surgery I was shooting 48lbs with 27” draw length both complete pass throughs. If you’re 0 for 6 I’m guessing your bow is out of tune. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. In my opinion open iron sights are darn near useless on a hunting rifle. A quality peep is a different story. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. When it’s game time and there’s snow on the ground and I’m tracking in the Adks I wouldn’t be caught dead with a scope. For all other hunting I would hate to be without an optic of some sort. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. Slick tricks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. If I had to pick 1 cartridge for the rest of my life and it couldn’t be .358 diameter it would have to be a 7mm-08, I’ve always been amazed how it kills critters way beyond its numbers. It’s hands down in the running for the best do all cartridge. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  23. 99% of getting scoped is a crappy scope without enough eye relief and someone that doesn’t know how to properly shoot. You have the scope part covered with that glass, make sure pulls it into her shoulder and there shouldn’t be any problems! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. 120gn Barnes Ttsx is about as good of a load as you can get for the 7-08 very little recoil my 11 yr old daughter shoots her single shot cva with no problems. When I bought it I got a couple boxes of the reduced recoil and ran out of them and she’s been shooting the Barnes since and didn’t notice a difference. That 120gn copper bullet performs as good or better as any 140gn lead bullet I’ve tried. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
