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 .

How did you do the bleat , with the can ? -
Do you guys spray down every time before going in
Northcountryman replied to luberhill's topic in Deer Hunting
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 ? -
LI Public: Tooo many hunters and hikers on a nice day.
Northcountryman replied to ChrisW74's topic in Region 1
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 . -

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 -

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 ) -

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 . -

Wow , that is the future for upstate , I’m afraid ; sorry that happened -
You guys seeing them in woods or fields ?
Northcountryman replied to luberhill's topic in CrossBow Hunting
I like you’re strategy ; do you worry about moving , though , during rifle season , especially opening weekend ? -
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 .

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
