I like you’re strategy ; do you worry about moving , though , during rifle season , especially opening weekend ?

Screw in step huh , great idea ! I have a few extra and will do that , thanks

Nope , it was me , Great feedback , really , thanks !!

Sorry , I meant smiley face !! Lol

I could be wrong , but I think That maybe Phantoms point Is that the person should not get the job BECAUSE they’re a transgender and just for political reasons and appeasement of supposed oppressed groups . If he ( or she ) is qualified . I certainly have No problem with it and welcome diversity in positions of authority , as long as said appts are made irrespective of race , creed , sexual orientation etc. and not BECAUSE of them. There is a difference and it is significant .

Yes , I forgot about the hoist rope , great advice !!

Nice ! So I won’t be the only one using one lol

With tremendous hunting pressure , such like we’ll see come Saturday morning , I think all bets are off and that becomes THE most improved factor determining deer movement . I like to setup in areas where I know other hunters enter Enmasse and , in particular , will look for thick cover such as evergreens , briar patch’s and swamps . The deer come to know The places hunters don’t like to go and quite often , that’s where they’ll be , at least till the pressure subsided a bit .

Yeah , I would wait and see for a bit and assume he’s just giving you good honest Well intentioned advice But keep checking your pics in there , of course . If it’s too good to be true and you’re striking out , the. Give it a shot but not until you give outside the orchard but adjacent a solid chance . There’s no rush now cuz hey, you own it !!

Ok , yes , I’m gonna do that too to make sure they don’t drag on grass and branches walking in . I don’t think my seat adjusts but when I set it , it feels ok so I’m gonna leave it alone for now .Also, How do you pack your ancillary supplies in ? I think my normal back pack will be too cumbersome with the climber so I bought one of those little girly fanny packs for snacks , tree strap and Ratchet

Ok , got it , thanks

Really , awesome , thank you Sir

Wait : are the apples trees where he advised you to not go cuz it s a bedding area? I’m confused

Very cool , congrats !! How did you do that ?

What do you mean the seat set ? How do you adjust that ? Yes , I do have the gear bag , Strap and safety harness and practiced today with . The back packing part seems ok as I wear it kinda high but I’m wondering if I should shove the cables in all the way cuz I’m worried they’ll drag branches as I’m hiking in

Yes , Ive practiced 3times now , including today . I incorporated the safety harness / lifeline in to my climb today and setup fairly well now . Still , I’m a little worried cuz I’ve never done it in full hunting regalia along with gun. Not only that , some of The vets in my club have recommended I carry a ratchet strap in too and attach that after getting up to my set height for additional support / security so I wanna do that in daylight at least once prior to doing in the early am dark

Hey Guys , so , I’ve been doing ALOT of scouting for the past month, tryin to get set for opening day ( this Saturday !! Can’t wait !!!) , and , have come up with a few good spots to try . One of them is my super set spot in which I have already put in a good n Sturdy ladder stand , and , I have a few other spots with pins marked to potentially, set up my climber . Thing is , I’ve never actually used my climber I a hunting situation so I’m a bit apprehensive about using it for the first time ever for a morning hunt where I have to do the setup In The dark . I think it would be more prudent to do a few Midday/ afternoon Hunts w it first where I setup in daylight to make sure it’s done properly ; then, with time , so ahead and use it for an early morning hunt . What do you think? Thanks

Yeah , that’s a good point

Yeah , I definitely understand their efficacy during bow to draw them in closer once seeing it , but , for rifle , does it really add to your chances of success? Decoys are usually positioned in an area that’s fairly open right ? And if a buck spies the decoy , it’s most likely already close enough for a decent shot with a rifle , but , not necessarily with a bow

I’ve noticed you have a very low opinion of Giuliani and , was wondering why . I don’t know much about him , honestly , except that he was mayor of NYC back in the day and was very popular when he left office , didn’t he ?

I think what concerns many about mask mandates is what it may lead to , which is , a relinquishing of Their individual liberties ; freedoms that , once given up , may never come back . Historically , it has always started small ,chipping away at our freedoms one piece at a time , and is almost always well intentioned , at least initially . But , once the govt is granted that power , it tends to set a precedent that subsequently, leads to relinquishment of more individual liberties by the citizenry and more power acquisition by the govt. I Do agree with you that mask wearing should be a no brainer and don’t understand the reasoning of those that throw a fit about having to wear one . However , I cringe at the idea of the government stepping and enforcing it . Would this lead to the creation of an entirely new branch of the executive called the “ Mask Enforcement Division “ ? IMHO , Mask wearing should be regulated at the local level and by individuals and businesses , not the government!!

No , It was investigated for 3 years and conclusion was there was absolutely no Russian collusion , period .

I didn’t , that’s why I’m asking and I will admit that FOX coverage Is biased too , of course. But 1 network slanted conservative as compared to all of the rest liberal is what concerns me . And that is why the laptop story may be “dead in the water “ as you say

I can’t believe she actually said that lol

Great article . I’m wondering : will we suffer the same fate as Rome , ultimately , as a result of liberalism run amok ?
