real or fake... that was cool!! Stupid, but cool!!

Handsome buck for sure...

Any urine... human or otherwise will have an initial smell which dissipates quickly on the ground leaving just the ammonia... this is true for all animals... there have been many tests done with human urine and whitetails... after 10 minutes or so the whitetail can not distinguish human urine from any other animal that has peed in the woods. But if it makes you feel better to pee in a bottle while hunting, then that's what you ought to do.

I would shoot it.. would like a bear rug for camp... beyond that all bears would get a pass.. too much work getting the thing out of the woods!!
-
Agreed...Couldn't have described it any better myself...I've even been still hunting where the deer has actually just materialized walking towards me from out of nowhere... a couple times I have caught one getting up from it's bed to stretch it's legs with no idea that I am there... for me it's an exciting way to hunt.

I have always been a Wolverine guy... I just like how there is no break-in period with them... fit like slippers right out of the box... I do have a pair of 1000 gr Field & Stream rubber boots for those really wet days... anything is better than the old K-Mart pack boots and a plastic bread bag from when I was a kid!!

Never liked sitting and waiting for deer to come to me... rather go to the deer... I do however sit occasionally when the day is just so beautiful that I want to soak some of it in... but never usually more than a half hour or so... the truth is I have very little patience and get bored easily...lol

I look at is as God is putting this once elusive deer in front of me for a reason... his days of stealth and cunning are over and he deserves to be harvested and remembered as one of the hunting stories we will tell for years to come.
-
Remember we are part of ecosystem... and we have a job to do ... they don't live forever... if he gets too old his death will probably come at the hands of coyotes or starvation... I would think an arrow or bullet might be a more noble way to go.. Just my opinion
-
Funny how I still haven't gotten to doing grown - up stuff...LOL well... if you ask my wife anyway.
-
So true how it plagues your mind... I think for those of us that enjoy life to it's fullest... just don't want it to end... seems like there just isn't enough time left to do all I want to do in life... but man I work my butt off trying to cram it all in..lol

I know you mentioned a GPS, but you should never go into the ADK's without a compass... take a reading before going in and make sure you know the reading to come out... never know when the GPS could get broken, have trouble getting a signal... whatever... having a compass is a must.

Don't see a problem.. on the 1st page of new content there are only 2 posts that are political (this is one of them).. the rest are hunting... and most of the political stuff on the site is about guns and hunting... stuff uninformed hunters might want to pay attention to anyway... I'd rather discuss the safe act than try to "guess what animal this is" from a fuzzy trail cam pic... Oh No! I think it's skeleton Spiderman!

You can buy one through the site I posted here earlier... if you email Frank Pandozzi personally he will even answer any questions you might have. His email is on the site.

Scent control: Getting dressed/ transporting/storing clothes
nyantler replied to Waldershrek's topic in Deer Hunting
Not bashing at all... pretty good precautionary measures I'd say. -
It is the top record book buck producer in NYS
-
I am... 20" beams would be a tad short for a deer that size... and if you us the ears as a guide (they are around 6") 10" tines would be a stretch for this buck...spread between 16-18... I'm thinking mass 13-14 .... not a bad guess all in all

Playing the wind is always best -
Just stands to reason that you have to be in the woods to witness what is going on there... good advice
