Bow season opens Oct. 1st, but the first good cool down after that, is when I will hit the woods. I don't like to hunt with daytime temps in the 70s.

This Yankees team has no spark or drive at all. Not going anywhere. To lose 2 out of 3 to TB at home, this time of year, is not good. Pitching is down the toilet. Yet Boone continues to paint a rosy picture. I don't want to look at his picture any more this year. They will be lucky, to even get the chance, to lose a one game wildcard.

I'm trying to make out the rifle he's holding. Any idea of what it is, or if it's still in the family?

Really cool pic's! I love those old photos. I really have to say, you resemble your great uncle. Wouldn't it be great, to sit around a fire, listening to some of the stories from those guys? Thanks for sharing!

Man, that girl could sing! RIP

Thanks for sharing the story and pictures of Quad! Gotta say, it made me smile!!! Any idea what may have happened to him?

I've found it to be lots of fun, and quite challenging, to hunt yotes after deer season. They are also targets of opportunity during the season. With the numbers of them, I don't know why DEC does not consider expanding the season for them.

Happy Birthday Buddy!!! Enjoy your day sir!

The reason the POS is so popular in the big cities. Is that he's very good at taking money from people that work. And giving it to people that don't, or won't. It's the liberal way! Too many don't want to interrupt the free ride!

No matter how much of a POS he is. No matter how unpopular the POS is upstate. The POS keeps getting voted in again by NYC. I really don't think he is that popular outside of NYC. So let the POS run for POTUS, he will get his ass handed to him. Then maybe the POS will just go away,

Looks good to me! Yum!

Andrew Cuomo, was never that great either. And getting worse all the time. Apple didn't fall far from the tree.

What's kept my wife and I together all these years, is we each have our own interests. I don't shop, and she doesn't hunt and fish. She's a city girl, I'm a bumpkin, nobody ever thought we would last. We've outlasted most of the naysayers. If my grandsons had turned out to be granddaughters There Is no doubt, we would still share outdoors time together. I thinks it's very cool to see women and young ladies, enjoying the outdoor stuff.

What time should we be there Paula?

Back about 15 years ago, the state bought the property that borders ours, and opened it up for public hunting. The first couple of years, they would come by the carfulls, to bang pots, sing songs, and shout how hunting defenceless animals was wrong. Worked out perfect, as I dropped two deer that they drove to me!!! We called DEC when they trespassed on our land. And they made them leave the area, ours and the public land. I was sure to thank them both times though, for the deer they put in front of me!!!!!! But got no "hi fives" with my bloody hands.

Happy Birthday!

The Bambi and Thumper syndrome is NOT a true reality in nature. There are certain things I prefer not to hunt. But if it is done legally and ethically, I don't have a problem with it, when another hunter makes the kill. At times, hunters contribute much more to the conservation effort by squeezing the trigger. The loss of habitat is much more lethal than the hunters bullet. To keep the population in check, with the available resources, the hunter is invaluable.

We've had rain after rain for the last couple weeks. Ground is totally saturated. But no flooding nearby.......yet. Doesn't look like I'll be fishing the Mohawk any time soon. Seeded food plots Iast week, hopefully they will take off like crazy.

Bill Hollister is a great guy. I've talked to him several times, and have been to his turkey seminar. He is a wealth of turkey knowledge. And probably the best turkey hunter I've ever met.

Wow! Nice buck!!!

Heck....I don't even need my reading glasses for that. Can even see the fine print, just fine.

Thanks for sharing! The pictures were awesome!!

Oh....wrong smokers.

I think there are a couple co-workers here, already doing that!

Really nice work! If I passed by your booth, I could see myself carrying a couple pieces away!
