    Go figure, there is always one idiot. My brother posted the video and we own the land together. There is no bait in the video, or on the land, end of story....besides it takes a bonafide genius to post a picture or a video with bait, since it is illegal. So Bowshot...take your bait theory to some other thread. Knowing the land, and the tree stand, there is browse all over the property and that wouldn't show up that far away on the video.

    I work on about 350 acres with about 2000 Oaks, the acorns are dropping rapidly on all the trees that are bearing, and it is due predominantly to the dry weather.

    Huge Buck Ithaca/Cayuga Heights 16 pt?

    There are plenty of big, even giant bucks killed legally each year that dont go "public". Dont be shocked if doesnt pop up in the newspapers, etc. Also remember, bucks travel long distances this time of the year, so it may have been killed miles away from the campus, golf course or hunting program.

    It is definately the same deer though, look at the white markings near the eyes, they are identical. Lost some mass and points this year.

    Totally agree with that statement, I know of four bucks killed in the last 5 years from the area I hunt that never made the paper or the internet, that were very "public" worthy. Just because it hasnt made the papers or internet site, doesn't mean the buck was not properly taken.

    The white, dread-locked, dirty-crunchy-pseudo-hippies from Ithaca will love it. Hope they put it in the paper that he was tame and they've been feeding him for years... they're the same idiots that think spaying does is an effective way to control the deer population in Cayuga heights. Maybe they should neuter themselves.

    Haha...i grew up around there myself and know exactly the people you are talking about. Funny stuff. They live in their own little world. A ten minute drive in any direction puts you back in touch with reality again.

    Joe Paterno - Fired - Thoughts?

    Penn State grad here, always had alot of respect for Joe and the way he handled his program. 85% graduation rate, 2nd in the nation behind Northwestern, 40 + years without an NCAA investigation, $3.5 million to build a new library, and countless other good deeds....all tarnished by what he didn't do. A seemingly good man, who's lack of action is inexcusable. Everyone who had knowlegde of Sandusky's actions is culpable, and should no longer be able to be entrusted with the education and well being of the students of PSU. I am glad to see that Board of Trustee's is taking this course of action. All those involved should be disgraced with their inability to act. Its all sickening. My heart goes out to the young men and all their families.

    DULUTH, Minn. — An 84-year-old hunter caught his clothes on fire in a deer stand, then died after falling out of the tree on Saturday morning, authorities said.


    Arthur Joseph Knafla of Maple Grove was pronounced dead at the scene, NBC station KBJR reported. The accident occurred in Lavell Township, southeast of Hibbing, the Star-Tribune reported.

    According to the St. Louis County Sheriff's Office, Knafla was attempting to light a propane heater in his partially enclosed deer stand when his clothes caught fire. Knafla then fell from his deer stand.

    A Meadowlands ambulance responded to the incident.

    Saturday was the opening day of the Minnesota deer hunting firearms season.

    This article includes reporting from NBC station KBJR of Superior, Wisc., and msnbc.com staff.

    lol @ Fantail....I hear ya, I can't even imagine being up that high, and especially if he didn't have a harness on...although it said he was on his way down, possibly unclipped. Either way, he is one lucky individual. I fell from about 15' before, hanging a stand and the whole left side of my body, the side I landed on, was a huge bruise and the fall knocked every last breath out of me...it took me a full minute or two just to start breathing properly again.

    I would have rather seen you make a good shot on an immature buck and recover it

    You took the words right out from under my fingers. My brother and I don't hunt if tracking is going to become an issue. For me, not recovering an animal is the worst, so I take every opportunity to avoid that situation.
