I was hoping to hand-feed a bear... it didn’t work out. A pic of that would be worth $250

It’s crazy how used to people they are. We saw some walking right down the middle of the street.

Hope you’re healing up. If you get out there and fate gives you deer, keep in mind you can reach out on here for help tracking/dragging. (I’m assuming you’re in the Roch area as you mentioned Highland Hospital in a different post.)

Nice bucks!

Once your Xbow is sighted in... you won’t need much practice.

This little girl showed up in June and changed my whole world... but I still hope to have everything ready by Oct. 1

I boiled the skull and cleaned it out good when the buck was killed. Peroxide was watered down to ~2%. I soaked it for a few hours to clean off the grime that was built up, and to get back to “bone” color. I’d like to stain the antlers back to original color.

This skull spent 15 years in the window of the barn. Cleaned up the skull with hydrogen peroxide. Anyone have any tips on staining sun-bleached antlers?

Hoyt Hyperforce 65# CBE sniper sight QAD ultrarest No stabilizer... I like the balance/shooting without one. Anyone else experience this?

We kept my wifes old car with intentions of keeping miles off our other cars, but we never drive it. Its time for it to find a new home. Will need a bit of attention (oil leak, battery light was on last time I moved it) Wolfsburg edition is fully loaded: sunroof, leather, heated seats, AC, etc. Would be a nice commuter or car for a teen.

Buck Ranger Skinner. Almost too pretty to cover in blood... almost

Whitetail Savvy by L.L Rue. Great info natural behavior and instincts.

Went to Hemlock to get some bluegills for a fish fry tomorrow. Got a bonus smallmouth on the ultralight.

Ha! The old bow is a wall-hanger.

New Hoyt Hyperforce vs 1999 Hoyt Striker. How things have changed in 20 years.

Got out on Hemlock Lake this morning and got a few filets.

Tiny fawn from 8H

Thanks for sharing this. I picked up the fullfield E1/II combo. E1 is going on a new Rem 700 in 7mm-08 and the II is going on an older Savage 110 .270.

Congrats and Thank You!

I run a camera year-round... I like seeing who survived and how long they hold their antlers. Bonus points: Find the second deer

"the Inn at Pound Ridge " I thought that was a joke. Or was it?

Looks like it stink for sure... and I agree, Raccoon

The snow is a little too white... it would be nicer with a bit of red.

No movement at all this morning... not surprising with the high winds. Looks like I missed a few nice does by 24 hours.

Heading out for a cold morning sit in 8H... let’s see if the snow and low temps change my luck
