  1. Found some good scrapes opened up today...
  2. Back in the stand. Adjusted to a new sspot about 80 yards from this morning. A few more heavily used trails here. I also freshened a couple of scrapes with the last of my Grave Digger and put a cam on theargest one with anoverhaning branch.
  3. Im speaking out of experience. I even pulled a slug out of the ground last year that didnt expand, even after going into the ground. I never said no blood trail, I said light blood trail. I have heard the same thing from others that use them as well. Like I said, I hope you have better luck with them. BTW, they arent 1 inch in diameter. A 12 ga bore is less than 3/4", then the slug is wrapped in the plastic sabot, which means the slug is even smaller than the 12 ga bore.
  4. I have a few deer that I have named. Hayrake, Picklefork, Spot, and an old doe I call The Witch. As for what I call deer in general, slick, slickhead, flat top, skipper, pig, hillside veal, walking burgers
  5. You arent a liar, youre a successful hunter. Congrats on the slick!
  6. Awesome pic phade, enjoy those backstraps!
  7. Man that does suck Burt. Hopefully he has another chance. Dont let him get down for too long, make sure he gets back in there.
  8. Thats a pig right there! Congrats!
  9. Scouted a bit on my way out, lots of fresh scrapes in this area. Im thinking Ill be putting a hang on in there, saw a bunch of deer this morning, just either too little or too far. Going back in there after lunch.
  10. Had a couple of small does walk by @ 15 yards. Beautiful morning...
  11. Finally inmy tree. Decided to try a new spot where ive been seeing deer come out of. Its a patch of white oaks and hickory. Found scrapes comingin and already had does come by but out of range. Missed my climber, this thing is comfy.
  12. The DEC has posted the list of WMUs that have left over DMPs. They become available Nov 1 and are on a first come first served basis. The Wildlife Management Units (WMUs) with leftover permits available are: 1C 3M, 3R, 3S 7H 8A, 8F, 8G, 8H, 8J, 8N 9A, 9F http://www.dec.ny.gov/outdoor/6399.html
  13. Well, they actually have it up on the site now. http://www.dec.ny.gov/outdoor/6399.html
  14. I dont think they release it till that day (tomorrow).
  15. Oh man, eyeball injections dont sound like much fun. I hope you dont have to get any of those. Yikes, just thinking of it skeeves me out.
  16. I just have today off. Wish I was off all week, it should be a good one for deer movement. Good luck Pat!
  17. Good luck Geno! Im just about to hop in the shower and head to my stand.
  18. Awesome buck Four Seasons! Congrats!
  19. I am in 8H, scrapes have opened up all over the place, lots of fresh rubs popping up as well.
  20. Sorry to hear that Burt. I hope he ends up finding it.
  21. I would say just hang in there, the cold weather is here and the deer are on the move. The bucks are starting to get interested in does, so if you just stick near the does, the bucks will show up. Yesterday while trying to track down a buck, I noticed scrapes opened up everywhere and fresh rubs galore. Try not to over hunt one stand, and only hunt the stands when the wind is right. Be careful with trail cams right by your stands, any time you go check that cam, you are pressuring that area more. The next two weeks are gonna be good.
