HA! Ive done that before, its a disappointment when you check the cam. I dont put anything over the cam, its supposed to be built to handle the weather already, right?

Kalifornia I believe.

He was probably burning one in his stand lol. Dumbass.

A couple of weeks ago I stopped in to Gander to buy something I needed for my ML that Dicks didnt have. They asked me if I wanted to sign up for their "Rewards Program", you know, like Dicks has. I said sure, got part of the way through the application and realized it wasnt a Rewards Program, it was actually a credit card. I have an email in to the Attorney General's office about it. That kind of trickery to signup for a credit card is illegal.

I beg to differ....

Welcome back Noodle! Glad to hear you had a good time!

Big congrats to you and yours Dave!

Pat, are you feeling ok today buddy? Or are you just trying to make 4 points at once? State land is already every man for himself for the most part, so that wont change, and anyone that would put a pecking order in place is probably already doing that now as well. I just dont see there being many changes. Im not exactly pro-AR either.

Same here, the farmers want them gone, period. ARs wont make a darn bit of difference to them. They might not like a 1 buck rule though.

Pat, I guess Im asking it the wrong way for you. 1 - Why would people kick hunters off of their land if ARs were put in place? 2 - The other things you mentioned dont appear to be happening in the current AR areas. Why would they suddenly start happening everywhere else?

LMAO

You have me scratching my head here lol

I dont hear of it happening more in the current AR areas. Why would you think it would start happening, and with ARs in place, why would land owners start kicking people off their property? Just wondering where you are coming from with those statements.

Oh, and call Deer Search Inc, the dogs can sniff out blood trails after a rain.

Agreed

I can almost hear it....

That was an episode of D&DH TV. Love that show. Been asking for the different seasons of it on DVD for a couple of years now. Guess its time to just buy them myself lol.

Cant be done that way. The deer herd in NY is not divided evenly amongst the entire area of the state, and the effectiveness of each weapon placed in each season is taken into consideration when they set the length of time to allow the use of each weapon. Bow gets the longest because its the least efficient, ML being the middle of the road as far as efficiency and regular firearms being the most efficient, so it gets the least amount of time. Has nothing to do with politics. Want to expand your season and number of tags, pick up one of the other weapons. Honestly, this stuff is way off topic.

Doc, the original intent of the thread was not to dissuade anyone from disagreeing with someones opinion. It was to speak out against the crap where people are just taking shots at others because they dont hunt the same way that the other person does.

Tag it and take it. If you have any doubts, just call the DEC in your region.

The only way you are going to make a dent isnt by calling them, but by hunting them with dogs and trapping them. They get wise to calls pretty quickly, and become next to impossible to call in with alot of hunter pressure.

Ok, Im not going to be any more part of turning this thread into a length of gun season debate.

I am looking to sell my Encore pistol chambered in 260 Remington. It has the 16 inch barrel and wood grip and forend. It has an NC Star 2-7 x 32 (I think) scope on it. The scope rings arent perfect, but do their job. If I keep it, Ill be replacing those. It will also come with a padded carrying case. I am only selling to fund my TC Pro Hunter purchase. Buyer will need a valid NY pistol permit $450 obo

I dont think someone stating their opinion should necessarily be called an "attack" or even a "proposal", its just an opinion. That opinion is nothing new from me, Ive been saying the same thing for years, and I still believe it would be better for the deer and the hunters due to less pressure which should equate to more deer sightings. Agree with it, debate it, disagree with it, I dont care, its just my opinion. Do I think it will ever happen? Probably not. An attack would be me saying shotgun hunters are slobs and shouldnt be in the woods or bow hunters do nothing more than wound deer or crossbow hunters are unethical because they dont have to practice as much as I do with my compound.

I want the bucks to get back on the property and comfortable, so I wont start shed hunting till February. If I find some while coyote hunting, great, but Ill wait to go tromping through any bedding areas just yet.
