As you well know Belo, I will perhaps, too quickly sometimes...... always jump in to defend anyone who I like. Warranted or unwarranted. I do it here, and in real life too. Call it a virtue, or a flaw, of my personality......idk. Just for the record Belo, I'd defend you too man. Merry Christmas.

What Was Your Biggest Disappointment This Season?
grampy replied to squirrelwhisperer's topic in Bow Hunting
If only that monster buck my grandson and I saw in the cut, had stayed in it for two more seconds!!!! Grandson was on him, and rock steady, as he was running diagonally towards us, down the cut 150 yards away. He had my Sako on a tripod, and as the buck came running a doe over the top, I calmly told him, " there he is, slip your safety off buddy, get on him, I'll try to stop him". The buck covered 50 yards in a flash, hard quartering to us. "You on him Zach"?... "Yeah"... "As soon as he turns, or stops..shoot"! ... BAAHHH... The buck took a hard turn to his left, and was out of the cut and gone...... Just two more seconds!!! I was going to give Zach the go, on the quartering to shot, after one more second, weather the buck stopped or not. He said he was right on the front shoulder, before the buck took the hard turn too. Before this, we had this same buck at 214 yards standing broadside at the top of the bank, but skylighted with no backstop. A miss, or pass through would have sent the bullet down into the park. I rightly called off that shot. We hung in there for three more hours on a bitter cold morning and never saw the buck again. Just two more seconds! Picture from that morning. The time spent together was still priceless. -
Love it! Lots of character in that rack! Very nice!

How bout Sako??? My last pup was Sam. Best dog I ever had.

Save the Date: Summer Camp Registration Opens
grampy replied to Steve D's topic in NYS DEC News and Annoucements
Our club sponsors four kids to go to this camp each summer. The response back from the kids going is always very positive!! A really great program for sure! -
Any time out with Culver, is time well spent!!!! You two make a great team! As well as Tree guy too! Before the end of this season, there is going to be quite a few song dogs, that won't be barking at the moon again! Keep posting the hunts moog! Very cool following along with ya!
-
250ish??? Were you using Treeguy's rangefinder???

Give Allen a better O line and I think the kid will be a darn good QB in the coming years. He has some accuracy issues now, but he is certainly a scrappy player. He'll work it out. Bills have come a long way this year. Their fans should be happy with the direction this team is going. They aren't dead yet! And will be even better next year.

Looking to buy my first bow, thoughts/suggestions.
grampy replied to Imjus4u2nv's topic in Bow Hunting
Some great advice already given. Any new bow today, is light years ahead of bows even fifteen years ago. No matter what brand it is! But I'd strongly suggest going to an archery shop, where you can be fitted for your first bow. Getting the correct draw length is critical for learning proper form. And learning proper form will save you many headache's down the road. Trust me on that. Shoot a few different bows while there. One will stand out above the others. Plenty of good bows out there for $500 and under to get you started. Keep it simple!!! Don't worry to much about expensive sights and rests at this point. Start with a simple Whisker Biscuit rest, and a three pin sight by Trophy Ridge. That will be all you need for the first two or three years, or more. -
Handsome little guy! Ruger fits him!

Go with one. Much more sensitivity. And backbone. I have dozens of rods. All but one or two are one piece. And they are eight and a half footers for crappie fishing.

Go Bills!!! Bury Brady!

One thing airdale is NOT, is a troll! He has added much to this forum, and I've learned a bunch from him! He is entitled to his opinion, that this crap has gone on long enough. I myself have contributed to the s---storm that was stormy. And I'm glad he's gone. But ganging up on a good member because he has a different opinion from the majority, is s--- too! And serves no purpose. Off season came fast this year. We gotta get outside and do something! And I'm in no way slamming you FSW. As my opinion is, you add much to this forum too. Especially lately!!! And all this is just MY opinion. No one needs to agree with it. As my pot and kettle are just as black as everyone else's.
