We like to do deer drives in 7M. It's the way my dad hunted and now me. I find it to be a lot of fun and more exciting than just sitting in a tree.

Thank you. I am shooting Traditions with Pyrodex RS

I'm new to inline muzzleloaders. How do most of you clean the tiny breach plug hole? Right now I just spray cleaner into the hole and let it soak through. My old cap lock I would just soak the nipple in cleaning solution.

But they love our President. I heard they were chanting his name at football games.

I'm live from the office as well. Really chomping at the bit to drive down to Madison County tonight and be in the stand all weekend. Good luck everyone!

The will be my 21st year hunting deer on my property. About the last 10 I have started using trail cameras (which I only check once a week). I've come to really understand the deer movement on my property. My land is a transition area. Early morning they pass by me coming from feeding in the fields all night then stop by my food plot on the way to their bedding area (off my property). Evenings they stage up at my food plot before heading to the fields to feed all night. I normally get a couple daylight hours in the morning and evening where I can see/shoot deer, or they show up on camera. But not this year. 98% of my pictures are at night. Almost zero pictures in the daylight. ALL of my buck pictures are in the middle of the night. I'm scratching my head trying to figure out what has suddenly made them so nocturnal. Have any of you ever had something like this happen to you? I'm trying to figure out what to change.

Not much moving in southern Jefferson County yesterday. This was my only visitor.

Our Runnings had a soft opening today. Not much left after the friends and family party the night before. There is a good supply of shotgun shells.

Hi, I could use some advise. One of my employees nudged a car in our parking lot. Nothing serious but they left tire smudges on the bumper of this Honda. What can I use to clean this off without ruining the paint? Thanks in advance!

Sorry to hijack this thread. Nice bear by the way!

When I was a kid, all the land on the right from the Sperryville rock to the bridge was my grandfathers. After the bridge washed out, it was never the same. Gramp sold the land and I haven't caught a brookie down there in ages.

I used to hunt up there near Antwerp. Tons of bears coming off Fort Drum. It's like a sanctuary.

That is why I bring paint ball guns with me when I go camping.

Nice buck. Thanks for sharing.

The bill has to get to the Governors desk first and that has never happened. The bill has to get out of committee to move and as long as one particular legistlator continues to hold it back, crossbows will not move forward.

I use the head and ears to judge. My guess, 2 years old.

When I began deer hunting in the early 80's and through the 90's I was VERY anti blaze orange. Once I had kids my wife asked me to wear a BO hat. I bought a camo BO baseball cap and have owned several since. After that everyone in our group got a similar cap. I must say that I really like them. The deer don't notice them and it sure is great to instantly spot one of my friends when he is walking over to me in the woods. The only downfall in this, from my experience, the trespassers won't wear it and will sneak through the woods or be able to see me from a distance.

Here's my 2 cents. I did a lot of research and this is the one I chose. Tractor Supply frequently has them on sale. http://cavearmor.com/winchester-24-gun-safe-review/

I know little about Barnett crossbows. For me it's tough to own anything that is comes from the Busbice family/company and they own Barnett. I would suggest a Centerpoint Crossbow. I have the Sniper 370 and I really like it. I have taken 11 deer in the 5 years that I have owned it. If you scroll through the crossbow posts below this one, you will find plenty of information. They have several models below $500 and it is a NYS company.

Thanks everyone, I may try to go through them all but recognizing who the 1989 League MVP will be about as easy as recognizing you in a crowd. I can spot a big star that I have seen in the news but the rest are just faces. Again, thanks.

I get that part. I just don't want to do that 15000 times. Hoping to hire or have someone help me.

I just inherited about 15,000 baseball cards. Some are in special plastic sleeves, some in original packs, but most are in large white boxes meant to hold baseball cards. My problem is that is that I don't know what I have. I can spot a few big names but since I know little about baseball, I wouldn't know a good card from a bad one. The cards appear to be mostly 80's and 90's. Can anyone recommend someone honest in Watertown or Syracuse who could go over these with me. In the end I would like to sell 99% of them.

Not to mention poisonous bugs and snakes everywhere.

Rest in Peace

I have been using a Buck Woodsman for over 30 years. As long as you keep it razor sharp, you can unzip a deer in no time. I recommend the Lansky Sharpening System.
