Well I'll be. I was able to reply.

Middle ADKs.

I shouldn't have to, the owner should be updating the back end so the forum works without having to jump through hoops and roll in rocks, but I tried a few browsers on my phone and it still freezes. This is just Chrome and Brave with Duck Duck Go as the engine. It locks up like that with Chrome, Firefox, Duck Duck Go and Brave. Old certificates error at times when trying on the PC. I don't have time to fight with outdated forum software.

Was out trying to fill the bear tag this past Sunday. No bears were seen but I did manage to walk about three miles in a 150 acre property due to zig zagging all over the place.

It's just on my phones, and it's now been two different phones. When I try to reply to threads it shows the "Saving" meaning posting message and never posts. I made this thread on my phone and it took like 15 tries. I was trying to make a post while hunting last Spring and it started doing it. I got frustrated and gave up. The other day I figured I'd see if things had changed since getting a new phone and provider and it was the same. It just freezes and won't let me post. It's also getting slower and slower on the PC's. It makes it hard to want to come here.

Good luck on the rafles.

Started last May trying to post I in live from the woods turkey. The forum freezes on saving and won't post.

There are some real scum bags out there. Back before we moved I had an area on public land that someone kept kicking down my brush blinds. It was only two of them that looked over a field and faced each other so I had options to play the wind. I have a good idea who it was but never had proof enough to do anything.

I was skimming through a few weeks ago and checked the members online list. There had been 16 new members in the course of that 24 hours. So someone is playing games because either those are fake accounts just to keep up with some sort of requirement for the ads, the place has been hacked, or new members can now join. I personally think it's the former because new members have been joining for a long time, even when they needed approval, so I think someone is playing games.

Just get the form for being disabled and have your doctor sign it. I hear an ingrown toenail is sufficient to get the slip to use the crossbow all during the archery season.

I'm not saying it's aliens, but........................

If I remember right, you can't buy ammo anywhere if you have a delay waiting. I know some guys still waiting since last Summer. I don't even bother because I flat out refuse to allow myself to be forced into an illegal and veiled registry.

I use the yellow Sawyers permethrin on my clothing and the blue Sawyers on my skin in warmer weather. The blue bottle/cans are picaridin and is safe for putting on the skin.

For me this place just gets slower and slower to load, and post. That and around here the stuff I do in the Summer is of no interest to anyone so why bother posting about it.

A while back I asked how there were suddenly new members. Maybe a year or a little less? I thought it odd that the only ones to approve new members are never here. The forum needs a serious update. For me, its getting slower and slower to load the place and then log in. I tried to keep up with the Live From The Woods thread for Spring turkey, but if it would let me log in from my phone it wouldn't let me post. I gave up.

I tried posting like 20 times while actually being in the woods, and it just kept freezing on the "Sending" screen. Not a peep this morning either.

At least you guys are out there. I'm not able to get back into the woods until Monday- if the weather holds.

No gobbles but a few deer passed by. First hunt of any kind since moving to the new area. Good luck too anyone else out here this morning.

Good luck to all the hunters hunting the 2024 Spring turkey season. Be safe and enjoy the time out.

I was hearing some gobbling in the woods behind the new house a few weeks back, but not a peep in a while.

The 2024 Spring Turkey Season is almost here. Post up those live from the woods pictures and reports. Maybe @fasteddie would be so kind as to pin this? Got the turkey chokes on the shotguns and plan to pattern Wednesday. Good luck out there, everyone. Be safe and shoot straight.

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO HAVE A PISTOL PERMIT TO BUY A SEMI AUTO RIFLE! You can add it to your pistol permit or get the semi rifle permit on its own if you don't have a pistol permit. ppb-3-08-22.pdf (ny.gov)

They are being given more rights then we have as well. Look up the Supreme Court judge in IL that ruled it was OK for an alien who came into the country illegally and was arrested three times on illegal possession of a gun that he has a right to defend himself and carry a gun with no permit or background check. Yet, we here in NY have to get permission to buy bullets.

That law went into effect way back in September of 2022 and was discussed here a lot. The ammo background check is part of that bill but it took them a year to get a system up to do the checks. If you don't have a pistol permit you need to get a permit for the semi auto rifles.

It's been that way for close to a year now. When the ammo background checks went into full swing they were already making moves to be out of the hunting gear industry and had been starting to liquidate all of it. The same way Gander did. The anti-gun movement is in full swing all over the country. The frustrating part is my wife got another gift card for the place last year for Christmas again so we have to use it. Camping and fishing gear and then I hope to never have to step foot in the place again.
