the blur

Try that during rifle season, and let me know what happens.

Totaled my car the other night in 3M. Big doe came out of nowhere. Literally nowhere. Just after dark. $24k worth of damage. Highway speed !! Airbag blew up in my face. Seat belt pre-tensioners slammed me into the seat. Entire front clip. Radiator, A/C Motor air box, plus plus plus, fenders, doors, hood. Deer piss all over the roof and truck. Car parts are still laying on RT 17 Get out there & kill them all !!!! Tags are widely available!!! Cops said it's an every night occurrence.

Please confirm: my archery tag is either sex, and thus: I can take only 1 buck all season on Long Island 1C, and then another buck with my regular season rifle tag. So I can get 2 bucks, one with my bow, and another for rifle. and then whatever DMP's I happen to get.

If I buy my archery tag with my regular season tag, is that an extra DPM tag ? How does this work now that I am a certified archer ? I can get 1C DMPs easily, but do I need to blow a DMP if I get an archery only tag ?

Are you guys removing water sources from your property ?? My neighbor with 15 horses, should I ask him to move the water trough inside ???

There's a new antibody treatment, but you need to ask for it. They inject you with antibodies in the early stages of covid. That's all I know, read it on CNN. Yep CNN.

The Bears must be eating well.

I can't see spending $5k on a mule deer hunt. They are sooooo similar to white tail. Antelope, sure, I did that for $2k. 225 yards, 2 hours, 1 hour later at the butcher !

ok, you get a deer this season. Are you sending it out for testing ?

Would you eat a deer that seemed 'not healthy' ?

I just spoke to a guy in Goshen. He said he will not be hunting for years to come. Waste of time. Deer sightings are far & few between.

When do they give out the extra doe tags ? Oct 1st or Nov 1st ?

I just got my archery. When I apply for tags, does my archery either sex tag apply to a specific unit ? Or I can hunt anywhere ?

I was at my LGS, and overheard a guy buying tags in zone 4. Isn't it too early for tags to be on sale ?

Wasn't it warm out opening weekend?

10 years of dicking around in 3J, finally got a Doe. Big fat doe too. Wanted to go back, but never went back for a buck.

10 different butchers will do it 10 different ways.

I run 7 trail cams on my property. Last night, 2 bucks came in. 1 buck I have never seen before. He came in 1 side of my property, and traveled straight through, hopping 2 fences. He didn't stop, he passed right over my food plot, and kept on going. He was definitely exploring looking for poontang, and traveling a new route. The other buck that came in rubbed every tree that wasn't already destroyed. Definitely a 2nd rut.

I was sleeping in the woods... I have been known to do that There is a nice V shaped tree down. It's not too comfy, but good enough for a snooze. My back pack is my pillow. This doe starts snorting at me, bobbing her head, stomping at me. I'm like... go away doe, all I have is a buck tag left. Let me sleep ! Some of them get so defensive. I look behind her, and sure enough, there is a group of 8. They are already yarding up. There was a buck way back, but I couldn't count points. Wasn't sure if it met AR... Still a good day in the woods.

Incorrect. They have DEC check points at the bridge requiring all hunters to "check in". They also go after orange hats & camo hats, and pull you over. I believe the DEC has power to do that, while regular cops need to find something wrong.

2 fawns, and a group of 8 deer total. The 2 fawns didn't have spots and were fairly decent sized. No idea why they are yarding up so early. 5 deer took off immediately after the shot & crash, the 2 fawns stayed around. That's how I knew they were her fawns.. They eventually ran off to the others in the group. Then I'm thinking... maybe that's why the mama doe was stomping at me. She was protecting her fawns. She certainly had time to run away, and I gave her every opportunity to run. So maybe, just maybe, mother does approach danger, while other deer run away immediately.

Had a Doe confront me in the woods. 1st time ever. She snorted at me, stomped at me, from about 80 yards. This lasted at least 2-3 minutes. I really wanted a buck, but she would not leave. Snorting over & over. Finally I put my electronic ear protection on. This is all from ground level. I sit on a log usually. She noticed me 1st actually, and got my attention with a snort. I waited another 30 seconds... and set the cross hairs. ... and 4 hours later at the butcher... Very unusual occurrence in the woods. Normally deer run without hesitation. This deer hesitated & confronted me. Bullet went straight in from front to back, and didn't exit.

You scent control guys crack me up. You spend hours dwelling over scent control. Spend all kinds of money on nonsense. Then oil up your gun with Rem oil & left over Hoppes #9, and think your gun doesn't smell.

People learn the hard way. Don't wear camo or orange going over the bridge. Even if your 100% legit, why waste hours being hassled for no reason.

What round do you shoot ? Sounds like a dead deer to me, that just didn't know it. He's close by for sure..... and the 6.5CM guy above... you can't use accubonds or bonded bullets on deer. They just make a pencil hole, and keep going. Soft tip or ballistic tip is best for deer.
