I know we have talked about pan frying it. Can someone give me some tips on the best way to cook it?
I like just salt, pepper and fry in EVOO. I just had one last month from the early doe harvest.

I found a line of purple painted trees at Carlton Hill state land... ON state land!

Im going to have to drive through it ... where I am hunting is not too near the band or at least where it is projected to be. My buddy is meeting me in Akrom but he is coming from cheektowaga, so he might have issues getting there
-
I went at 3:30 and got a few 8G's. Was there earlier on my lunch break and the system was down. Going to try to punch an 8G after work today

I have the exact same bow and a very similar problem.... It was driving me nuts. It would shoot fine most of the time but every once in a while when I shot, it would make a "twang" noise followed by a horrible shot. It got worse as time went by and I started noticing wax on the fletchings. I realized the wax is bow string wax, so I checked the cable guide shaft (the shaft with the red guide sliding on it) Sure as heck, with the bow at rest, there was clearence for the fletchings, but the shaft was loose. I rotated the shaft to increase the clearence and tightened the lock nut. Problem solved and it still shoot like new. I believe mine is also seven years old too
Edit : The shaft felt tight by hand when the bow was at rest... I tried to turn the shaft with a pair of pliors and found it to be loose. Rotated the shaft clockwise (looking from the rear of the bow) and tighten up the lock nut.

1500 acres in tompkins county near ithaca. 500$ a year deer hunting only and possibilities of land improvement in the future. Some rules and regs. on safety zones and food plots. If your interested fell free to reach out. Also potential for more spots in future seasons. It's a special opportunity with normal hardworking deer fanatics.
Thats a really good price... Too bad it isnt closer to home Buffalo area.

Not to mention the prices on leasing hunting property now a days. I remember the good old days when you knock on a door and folks would let you hunt, or your neighbors always welcomed you to hunt thier property as you did also. Those days are long gone it seems

I read upper $x,xxx to mean at least 5k and up to 10k. Good luck with it!
Yeah... I just saw the upper side of $x,xxx Im thinking NOT. Ill keep hunting state land and put the money towards something else like a winter place near Clearwater

Thats an expensive lease if she is asking close to 10k with a not so great layout, IMO.
No price listed... My hunting buddy is trying to call about it today. One of the statelands that we hunt is near by this place in Warsaw. Its a 35 minute drive from my house

3 or 4 with triple 7 and 5 or 6 with whitehots. Never shot more than 2 times while hunting though. The gun seems to clean easier with whitehots, but the ammo i shoot leaves red plastic lines in the rifling. I found if I leave my guns in the sun behind a window to get warm that plastic comes out easier when doing a more comprehensive cleaning.
I use the recommended power belt bullets and white hots in my wolf. Ive gotten 5 shots out of mine when I last sighted it in. Super easy clean up too. I also never shot more than 2 in a row hunting without cleaning it.

I’m a rookie , do mostly meat , now soup and soon chili , just to build up our pantry and have quick meals when needed . I really like the No freezer part as well, I have a Wi-Fi monitor in our freezer and check it daily when we’re away but still would need somebody respond and hook up the generator or buy a new freezer pdq . At least the canned stuff will survive.
What still fools Mrs nomad is , “ oh it’s only 90 minutes this won’t take long .” Lol you gotta clean all the jars ,lids, bands , prep all the food, bring the pressure cooker up to pressure , and it’s 30-40 minutes for the pressure to drop before you can open it . Two batches is most of the day .
True that Nomad... I like to get an early start when I can something, or do as much prep work the evening before.
