  1. I just found out that the DEC tranquilized it , and re-located it up in the Adirondacks. This is like the 3rd moose that I recall that wandered into Dutchess county.
  2. Anyone hear about a young bull moose wandering around La Grange , located in Dutchess County ?
  3. Persistence paid off.....Happy Birthday and congrats.
  4. You might not be doing anything wrong......maybe the bird numbers are down in your area.
  5. That's what can happen when someone violates the cardinal rule.
  6. It was really strange looking . Dull looking plumage , tiny body , blueish gray head but had about a 6" beard.
  7. National Wild Turkey Federation has entries for all species of wild turkeys , but not sure about New York state entries exclusively.
  8. I remember a few years ago when a bearded hen came into gun range while I was spring turkey hunting. She mingled around my turkey decoys for approximately 10 minutes or so. During this time , I couldn't help but think that I could shoot this hen as the regulations state "bearded turkey". I let her pass as I assumed she had a nest nearby and I wouldn't have felt good about it regardless. I wish the DEC would re-write the regulations , as it is very easy to distinguish a jake,gobbler and a bearded hen in the spring.
  9. Obviously there is nothing wrong shooting a jake , but I prefer to let them grow ( hopefully ) into a wise old gobbler.
  10. Lucky you.......I've yet to see one in the wild. Seen some sign , but that's about it.
  11. Thanks, I stand corrected. I believe Sanchez has 4 playoff wins . That's a lot better than my teams quarterback who has 1 career playoff win. To make matters worse , they just gave the most mediocre quarterback a meg a million dollar deal . Need I say more ?
  12. Sorry.........I thought the Jets released him and drafted another QB.
  13. He's not a Jet.....and it looks like a schoolgirls hair band,lol
  14. Wishing you good health after your cancer diagnosis and surgery.......kind of puts everything in perspective.
  15. Nice looking turkey breast............congrats !
  16. I like how the grain of the wood plague outlines the shape of the skull......great job !
  17. It happens to everyone sooner or later. A slight flinch will throw a tight pattern off at close range.
  18. Lynch's World Champion Turkey Caller.......................had it since 1994.
  19. Fantastic photos.....can't blame you for wanting to take the 4 in your pac.
  20. That sure is strange seeing snow in the photo during a spring turkey hunt. Congratulations to your nephew on a fine bird.
