We have about 24" on the ground in Saratoga Springs. That Sunday night snow dropped 18". Got another 3" today and some more coming in now. Really messes up the ice fishing

Didn't know what you were asking. Your question did not make any sense so you got a dick response.

Yes

Nice day here in Eastern NY also. Went small game hunting with my cousins. I haven't done that in probably 10 years. Kicked out a pheasant and some grouse. Got a shot at a grouse. Going hungry tonight

Dead zone where I live. Geese are gone and very few waterfowl on the lake I hunt. Put the boat and layout blind away for the season. Going small game hunting with my cousins tomorrow. Good luck. Post pictures. Everyone likes pictures.

I have had most of my successful hunts in fields. Below is a hunt from last spring. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Boi_5r7-P2A

Good luck on your up coming turkey season. For me, spring turkey hunting is my favorite. If you get bored, you can check out my hunts on you tube - New York Outdoors. I'll be hunting in Georgia in early April this coming year. Can't wait.

Taken from the DEC we site. To hunt - means to pursue, shoot, kill or capture (other than trap) wildlife and includes all lesser acts that disturb or worry wildlife whether or not they result in taking. Hunting also includes all acts to assist another person in taking wildlife. I might re-think the rubber buck shot thing. Just Sayin'

I appreciate that you let us know about the 22's. I just don't shop at Dicks because they did not have TRAP loads when they advertised them during the fall. If I found 22's in another store I probably would have bought a bucket or two to add to the ones I bought in Maine last year. I have shot Remington's in my autoloader for years and did not have any problems.

I no longer shop at Dicks. I am fed up with them not having advertised items or when they do, they do not have the quantity I want. I told the manager of the Wilton Mall Dicks that I would not shop there any more after he was not willing to pull some flats of trap loads from other stores.

Check out Cabelas neoprene line of waders. I have two pair, 1600 gram for cold water hunting and 1000 gram for early season up to November. Very warm and comfortable.

This the first time we have killed mallards over corn in many years. They were fresh migrators and pounded that field for several days straight. I wanted to hunt 'toga tomorrow but it is iced in by the launch so that does it for the year on the lake. May hunt geese on Sunday if I can find some birds.

Hunted a partially cut corn field in the rain today with three friends. Turned out pretty good with a mixed bag of mallards and geese.

How many decoys are you running?

We had marinated back strap at my cousins camp on Saturday night. Back straps were marinated in Italian dressing, soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce over night. Pan fried in the marinade and sliced when medium rare. Serve with Heinz brown gravy with mushrooms over egg noodles. Side of home made apple sauce. It was great. Good thing because I didn't see a deer on Saturday or Sunday. Just old tracks.
