Nice crossbow. But it is not legal in NY. Needs to be a minimum of 17 inches across limbs.

Great thread my friend!!! I didn't see it before today. Hope you are doing well!!

First time hearing about this too. The purple paint will help with the ya-hoo's ripping down the signs we tack up. But outside of us actually standing there. The scumbags will continue to trespass.

An absolutely awesome package deal, at a steal of a price, for some lucky buyer!!!

I hope Mom is doing better each day And her recovery will be as quick and painless as possible, for injuries like hers. Prayers sent.

Nice find!!! Good luck hunting from those new stands my friend!!

Happy Birthday Sir!!!

Other than the fibroma, he looks good and healthy. He gets a pass.

Happy Birthday Eddie!!! Here's to many more!!

Squirrel hunting is one of the most fun things to do after September 1st. To the start of bow season a month later!! And after the hunt the Squirrel Stew is always a hearty, tasty dinner to look forward to as well.

I hope that this will open the door for full inclusion, to all who choose to use crossbow in archery season.

All my small motors, boat, ATV, run ethanol free gas. Yes, it does cost a bit more. But in the long run, saves much more in repairs from running the ethanol, that clogs carbs and makes rubber lines brittle. EF is running about $5.10 a gallon here at this time.

So sick of his BS for years! Time for him to come out from behind his keyboard, and show us how well he does in the woods against an old man. Many on this forum are better than me. I'm nothing special. But I know a BS poser when I see one! And I know when it comes to the REAL outdoors, I'll make him look stupid. C'mon Mayor! Seasons open in a couple of weeks. Let's get out there! Go big or go home poser! I'm ready to expose you once and for all. I listed a whole bunch of things. Pick what suits ya, and show me what you can do.

C'mon poser, prove you're not just a lame ass jizz jerker. BS artist! Who knows if the pictures of game you posted are even yours Mayor?? Only one way to settle this. Me and you on equal ground. Put up or shut up!! I'm ready! Anytime. Anyplace! I can't wait to show everyone how "good" you really are! Bragging, is one thing. Doing, is entirely real. How real are you Mayor? Let's find out!

For blood tracking training, at first drag a piece of liver through the woods for a couple hundred yards. Make some sharp turns too. Leave a nice piece at the end for a reward. As your dog progresses, make the line longer and harder. Then intermittently pick up the liver for a ways and set it back down. Also use deer hides and deer legs for the drag. My mentor John Jeanneney, a founding member of Deersearch, wrote a great book that may help you train for blood tracking. It's called "Tracking Dogs" For Finding Wounded Deer. Amazon has it. If I can help you in any way, or answer a question you may have. I'd be happy to do so.

No Mayor. Not Letchworth on your home turf. Or mine either here in the hilltowns of Albany County. A neutral place, mid state or the Dacks. I'll travel anywhere! Let's see what kind of outdoorsman, YOU really are? We can shoot rifle, shotgun, handgun, archery, to see who's better? We can hunt small game, upland birds, geese, predators? Could see who can get a doe down first. I won't waste a buck tag on you. I got a real nice fishing boat I can tow most anywhere. Or we can fish from shore. Lake, stream, river, pond, makes no difference. Pan fish, bass, trout, salmon, walleye, pike? You pick. How good do you navigate with map and compass? How fast can you make fire with flint and steel? Can you make an emergency shelter? How close can you get to a deer without being detected? I'm not the best of any of these. But I'm willing to show I'm better than YOU! I'll make it interesting. Pick five disciplines of what I just listed. For each one you beat me at, I'll donate $100 to the charity of your choice. Preferably something outdoors, or youth related. C'mon! I'm just an old man. YOU are the best at everything! Prove it to us all!! Action talks. Your BS walks! Prove to everyone you're not just a jizz jerker. I can make time, anytime to do this. Again, anywhere neutral. Perhaps members can suggest, or offer a place? Let's get it going asap! I'll buy you a beer, after it's determined who the better outdoorsman is. Put up or shut up!

Al, The malcontent is right here with you! The Mayor, is and always was one of the most toxic people to post here! Yet you defend him??? I never bashed this site or you. Or anyone else for that matter! If you want to ban me for sticking up, and speaking the truth then do it!!

Yeah Mayor, been doing it for years. But you were to wrapped up in your mullet to notice. Any time you want to go hunting, or fishing, head to head with me on any neutral property, just let me know. I'll put you to bed crying. Whata ya say?? Mayor?? Put up or shut up. I'm certain we can work out a location. Real life. Real time. Real results. No BS. Lets do it!!

You do make me laugh Mayor! Of course. No one is better than YOU!!

C'mon Eddie......I have the utmost respect for you. Always have, and always will. I come here as a longstanding member. It doesn't matter what other forum I may, or may not visit. I still come here to contribute when I can. Just as I have for years and years. Not to push yours, or anyone else's buttons! We are all free to come and go as we please. And not be targeted, just for belonging to another place besides here. But you have to know yourself, "The Mayor" has been among the most antagonistic, divisive, self absorbed, asshats to ever post on this forum! He's been that way ever since I became a member many years ago! I never hesitated to call out his BS then. And I won't hesitate now either!! Talk about someone who's detrimental to this site??? Look no farther than "The Mayor" himself!! All this...... they shouldn't post here, because they went there, is childish. The welcome mat is always out over there. As it should be here as well. We are still members!

That is so awesome!!!! Wooly is a super great guy! Please pass along that I send him the very best. Sure do miss him.

See.....It's always ALL about "You" isn't it Mayor....... YOU are always the best. Everything that YOU have and do are the best. Better than anyone else. Right?? Nope, no envy here on my part. Just pity for you. A sad little man, that needs to brag on a computer to feel good about himself. I don't need to flaunt any of my accomplishments. Those that matter most are well aware of them.

And this morning rant of yours Mayor, pertains to hunting/fishing??? There is absolutely NO competition between this forum and that. Get over it!!! Both are going their own way. I understand the sense of loyalty some have here. Heck, I've been a member here for years myself. Still some good people here too. That's the only reason I come to visit. And still try to contribute when I can. Besides ranting and raving like always. I don't see you contributing much here Mayor. For years you were only disagreeable and mean spirited to anyone who didn't follow your 'gameplan'. It has ALWAYS been about YOU!! You're the best at EVERYTHING, ALWAYS!! Right?? The actual contributions you've made here over many years are minimal at best. Now as self appointed Mayor of HuntingNY, YOU have tried become the "leader" here. People like YOU are not leaders. Only in your own mind you are. You never spoke for me and never will. I don't need any outdoor advice from YOU. There are others here I do respect very much. And my apologies to them for not contributing hunting/fishing in this post.

A quick look??? If you are taking enough 'quick looks', which I'm sure you are, you may as well just sign up Mayor!! All are welcome! Even you! I get a full screen ad every time I stop by here too.

If I can get away. It would be great to meet up with ya Paul. And GreeneHunter too!!
