What's the coldest temperature you can remember hunting in
Jdubs replied to Hunter007's topic in General Chit Chat
Whatever the temp was for the last weekend of late muzzy last year. I was in a treestand all day, both days, feet frozen solid. Maybe my chattering teeth scared off the deer? Looking forward to using the new Baffin boots this time around! -
I can't speak on the roof top tents, but what about using a cot and/or thick air mattress in a regular tent? People pay $200/night to go "glamping" in similar setups. $1k seems like a lot of coin to drop for a tent with a niche benefit. ETA: I always see these roof top tents in marketing pics, but never in anybody's personal feeds, let alone in the wild.

Nice group of bachelors there.

I even noticed the pumpkin spice beers are already on the shelf too. Nuts. I can't get into these Fall brews when it's been 90+ degrees out and humid as a rain forest.

Half of tree stand falls were fatal, 100% were preventable

Holy crap, that was a close call! Thanks for sharing that story. Things can happen in the blink of an eye to any of us. -

12 seemed like a low number when I read the article. -
I also cooked up a pork tenderloin tonight, but your stuffed loin looks way better!

Happy Birthday!! So what's a Sherman tank rent out for these days?

Jdubs replied to Jdubs's topic in General Hunting
No question, there are plenty of tactics for deer hunting. As much as I enjoy a comfy ground blind (and harvested both of last year's deer during rifle season from one), I also appreciate the advantages of hunting from above during xbow. And despite carrying a decent amount of life insurance, I'm in no rush to have my daughter cash those checks or see me eating meals through a straw. YMMV. -
Sobering stats noted in this year's NY Hunting & Trapping Guide. Last year 6 of 12 tree stand incidents were fatal due to no harness (5) or harness not attached to the tree (1). There were (3) non-fatal injuries without a harness and (3) non-fatal injuries with unattached harness. I'd hate to see anyone here have a fall. Please use a lifeline and/or a lineman's belt when hunting from a tree stand this season. All of these accidents are preventable.

Drop or no drop, he's a stud!

No surprise, scored 2 DMP tags for 5R. Filled both last season and hoping to do the same this year.

Now I feel dirty. Kinda like Geno Smith starting for Eli. Hopefully you get cleared off the DL for full beer contact next week.

Love that Black Note!

Biz is late so here's your Friday Happy Hour beer to kick off the weekend! However, my 6-pack probably cost the same as 1 can at Grand Central!!

Stovetop strip steak with Brazilian Steakhouse rub. Local Hannaford practically giving these steaks away at 3.99/lb!

whats your first date for hunting this fall?
Jdubs replied to Robhuntandfish's topic in General Hunting
11/3 xbow is now circled on the calendar. -
No pic, but (finally) stopped by Siro's and had my first Sam IPA. It was actually decent.

Happy Birthday!

Not even if you're buying!

The Governor says America was never great
Jdubs replied to Hunter007's topic in Gun and Hunting Laws and Politics Discussions
Liberals hate America, they despise our Freedom and everything it stands for. All they care about is power over the masses and lining their pockets with our money. FUAC spoke his true beliefs and that scumbag will be crushed like the cockroach he is in any campaign for POTUS. -
Oh damn that looks good!

Love it when a plan comes together.

That's a hot one. Hopefully you don't end up with a new fence.
