  1. Oh yeah !! Been there done that !! But only for #1 ; just stand up and whiz over the trails !! Never try doing that for #2 Though lol
  2. Oh , I see what you’re saying ; ok , got it , thanks
  3. You could not have said it any better as, that’s just how I feel inside!! And , Evidently , I am not alone !! Thanks for the insight
  4. Very cool , but , how do you notate where the cables need to be placed specifically?
  5. Ok , so , I’ve done so much scouting now That , I honestly don’t know where to go for opening day and it’s driving me nuts !! I have a ladder stand setup in a spot that might be productive but I’m feelin like I’d like to be more mobile and try a few Other spots With my climber . Problem is , I’ve never never used the climber In A hunting situation ( yet ) , although I’ve practiced ; so , I’m feelin like I should stick with the ladder spot opening morning and , if I’m not seein anything , also bring the climber with and take a walk later if need be . Does this sound prudent ? Opinions more than welcome, thanks
  6. Let me ask you: what evidence do you have that Trump doesnt care about the common man / average American ? By making the assertion that he doesn’t , and , Suggesting that one is a naive fool to believe that he cares , Does that mean you believe that Biden ( or Obama , I guess when he was President) does ? Remember , this is a man who is a CAREER politician , who obtained all of his wealth via the power of his held offices. In contrast , Trump is independently wealthy and acquired none of his wealth through the Presidency ( at least , none that I am aware of ). Also , why the MAGA insults ? Do you dislike what MAGA stands for ? In comparison , what are your feelings toward the ANTIFA movement ?
  7. There you go , so why are we going they all this scent elimination bullshit in the first place lol . Maybe the deer on his property are accustomed to those smells so it doesn’t alarm them ?
  8. Baking soda , huh . I like that ; how long you been using that anti scent remedy ?
  9. Sounds like a cool gun but Must kick like hell right ?
  10. Good idea and , forgive me as it may sound like a dumb question but , where do you get the sticker lol
  11. As a citizen of the United States , he could still be arrested , though , for crimes committed prior to , and during his term in office . Considering this , and knowing that the Democrats are fully cognizant of their prerogative to bring charges as well , I think that it’s reasonable to assume That they declined due to flimsy evidence , or , none at all .
  12. Yeah , I just saw this on the news , 2800 to be exact and the sec of state of GA Is refusing to certify anything now and wants to delve deeper into this
  13. I’m gonna dig out my can , Then , and give it another shot , wth. One thing I never liked about it is, sometimes it would go off a little bit as I was walking , from leg move meant, I guess .
  14. My Grandfathers 1960s vintage 300 Savage !!
  15. I never bothered with the scent free detergent but bought a bottle this year and will wash hunting clothes w that. Also , although I don’t know how much it helps ( it may ) , I spray down my clothes , coat , hat , gloves , etc with scent free . The way I figure it , it can’t hurt even if it doesn’t help !! I think the biggest thing is scent control while you’re in stand , actually . I try not to eat too much night before so I don’t have to take a dump while sitting , or fart incessantly ( lol , not tryin to be disgusting , just part of reality !) while there . Also , no coffee in the am and fresh breath and teeth ( read somewhere they smell you’re breath more than anything ). Also , watch what you bring in to snack on during your sit . No chips !! Too noisy . Jerky ? I do bring that cuz it’s great energy for a full day sit but can they smell it ?
  16. Great quote , I like it !! Finding public land with no trails not a bad idea But , may not be realistic for guys in metro areas ; they’d have to come upstate. This isDoable , of course, but probably more of a weekend event rather than just part of the day on a Saturday, for example .
  17. Really ,Very cool ! great example btw , when The can would be useful during rifle and , I can see that it would have utility in a scenario like that. There’s a couple heavy thickets and swamps You can’t easily get into it , but , could feasibly setup on the edge and attempt to call them towards you . Great idea , thanks
  18. Man , I sure hope you guys are right ; and , even if you are right now , what will it be like in 30 years ? I’ve thought a lot about this , and , I’m thinking that eventually , they ( ie , the State) will have to designate certain tracts as “ Hunting Only” so that hiking isn’t allowed and vice versa in other tracts . There’s getting to be more and more hikers and some are anti hunting and they will ( and probably do already) complain. Eventually , someone’s gonna get hurt and it’s gonna come to the forefront and state govt will address it ( I sure hope I’m wrong but afraid that I’m right on this )
  19. It’s kind of like that at Sterling too from what I’ve found , depending where you go . Don’t even bother going anywhere near cuz it’s loaded with people on those trails . Maybe it’s feasible with bow but no way during rifle , not a chance .
  20. Cool , ever use the doe bleats can ? Wondering if that works too
  21. Wow , that is the future for upstate , I’m afraid ; sorry that happened
  22. I like you’re strategy ; do you worry about moving , though , during rifle season , especially opening weekend ?
