Trad bow

Nice big doe Engraver

Just longjohns for me for still hunting lightweight like silk heavier underarmor for sitting. I have the stormy kromer original hats and love them.

Cute bet she loves you

I wonder if you could see patches one the new ones with some of the wool left from the legs of the old ones giving double layer and may double the life .

I love wool as well sitting right now with King of Mountain jacket and Stormy Kromer wool pants i found for $15.00 at an antique place. Picked up another brand new pair of grey stormy kromers for $40 at a swap meet and pair of Safty Back green ones for $25. Just retired my codet green ones as wore out in the crotch like yours

Daf has been the case here up until the last 24 hours and now it’s crazy!! 8w

Had a flying squirrel right off the deck of the cabin when I turned on the light then a single fawn when I pulled into the spot I parked good omens I hope. Beautiful morning

First deer of the day a spike at 10:45

Frosty start in 8w but nothing seen yet. Very few seen along the roads on the way down and nothing dead in the road. Two weeks ago three were half a dozen hit in the road between home and camp.

Saw a spike this morning then this small eight with a broken main beam came in and bedded at 20 yards. I was tempted as it would have been the first deer at my daughters new property and first with the longbow I built but decided to just watch him , it was fun he slept on and off for an hour.

What a great idea ! Congratulations on job well done

I have the Leupold Alpines a little heavy but excellent value , I bought them after leaving my Leupold Yosemite’s on a mountain in Colorado ..

Try Onestringer arrow wraps.

I enjoyed it , no turkeys taken but enjoying the time woods , the turkey is just the icing on the cake. I’ll eat cake with no icing over work anytime! Thanks

I have a female black lab and her name is Jenny also have her 1/2 brother who is a silver lab named Jake. My wife thinks I turkey hunt too much but I liked the names.

Interesting topic , when I was younger two of my buddies and I were standing in a tributary of Lake Ontario that was before the first barrier impassable by fish however both steam banks were posted. We thought because we were in a navigable water way we were ok , the land owner saw us and called the state police. The officer came down to the water and walked us back to our car and had us follow him to the troopers barracks where the Encon officer was waiting. The Encon officer explained the someone had recently shot the land owners pet ducks while they were in the creek and left them so he was pressing charges on anyone who was fishing there. Everyone was very good about it and I still have a picture of my and the largest steelhead I have ever caught standing in front of the troopers car before the Encon officer confiscated it. We received tickets and had to appear in town court. The judge fined us $10.00 each . What I remember the most was both the judge and Encon officer told us not to let this discourage us from our love of the outdoors.

Great pictures!

Ok my dad is just got an in-line and bought a bunch of these primers at Runnings in Canandaigua. We haven’t shot it yet but are going to be shooting white hots , sounds like they will work. I shoot a flintlock and a percussion sidelock so it’s all foreign to me.

Will these work with white hots ?

I love hunting the west, my buddy and I went this October on a DIY in Colorado and both got bulls and a coyote chased a mulie fawn by me too close. This is my fifth DIY out west and second bull , also took a nice mule a couple years ago. Can’t wait to go back.

Yes it’s a 1980 444s with no cross bolt safty and a Leupold Vari X III 1.5-5 20 mm scope.

I shot this buck last Saturday with my 444 and hand loaded 265 grain flat nose bullet, he dropped in his tracks!

Left my Leupold binoculars on the mountain in Colorado this year, that hurt

Zeek just do it. You are a good hunter and will work hard at it. I have gone four times and next month will be my fifth I’m hunting rifle season. I have taken one bull and one nice mule deer and have been in animals every time. It a great experience and once you go you will want to go back , we have millions of acres all public land , enjoy it ! Here is the deer I shot two years ago , messed with a bull all week but only had a split second shot opportunity and didn’t take it but the bugling was worth it alone.
