  1. You can smoke Venison

    low heat I try to keep it around 200 & like any other style of cooking venison Med Rare max

    Roasts do smoke the best

    I also agree with the thermometers get yourself a set or two of probes

    I disagree because the law must be interpreted for state wide rulings, that's why it needs to be in writing with DEC r mail/letterhead, to cover your butt

    well they tell me to look it up. They will not give me an answer. 

     it meets the specs but some here say they are a no go

    Better off asking the ECO for the area you hunt that'd give you the ticket.

    I plan on bringing them out with me to do exactly that but NY's regs apparently are not black & white & are  subject to Interpretations  

  5. well sent the info to DEC specs & their regulation this is their response 

    If you look on our website at:  http://www.dec.ny.gov/outdoor/8305.html

     

    There is a list of illegal and legal implements used for big game hunting – along with photos.

    Hopefully this will help.

    Well no kidding that is where I got the regulation 

    all I read the Auto-lock meets the specs of a legal broadhead for NY. 

    I did push them for an answer but have not heard back

    Their information says that once deployed they lock and become a fixed blade broadhead. Even if they pivot back forward, if they don't make it to 90degrees they are barbed

    they don't actually lock they lock out from closing they make it past 90 they go to 112 I could make a video but not sure how to post it

    how do you figure?

    they seem to fit the description on DEC's site. E-Mail is submitted so we will see what they say

    I want to use them but if they are illegal they will stay in NH & I will use my fixed blades

    But once they pivot back, they lock into place and are not able to pivot forward without compressing the tip.

    no they do not pressing the tip unlocks blade from closed position they do not actually lock open per say you just cant close them they swivel open to 112 degrees forward

    If you get that in writing from DEC, please post it, either way.The DEC is usually slower than the ATF to put things in writing for approval, disapproval is much easier and faster.

    I am trying to get contact info & will contact through email so I have it in print. these are some really awesome heads so I would hate to have to use different ones in NY than I do here & Chase 0218 I really did not mean to hijack your thread I am sorry

  10. Barbed broadheads are illegal for hunting big game. A barbed broadhead is one in which the angle formed between the trailing or rear edge of any blade and the shaft is less than 90 degrees. A notch at the base of the blade extending no more than 2 millimeters from the shaft shall not be considered a barb. Broadhead examples on the right compare one that is barbed to three that are legal. Broadheads with retractable blades are legal. Broadheads with mechanical blades are legal if the blades DO NOT form a barb or hook when the arrow is pulled from the flesh of a deer or bear

    AND the blade locking notches are 1.5 mm from the body of the broadhead. I guess I will send this info to DEC. Thanks for the heads up everyone

  11. That does not make sense the pic shows legal pivot  that is what these do they swivel like the Rage 2 blade. Trust me I want to be legal so I will make a video when I get out of work & to be honest DEC is not much help when we first started hunting NY over 10 years ago it took weeks & several employees to tell me if the Rage 2 blades were legal
