  1. Wait : are the apples trees where he advised you to not go cuz it s a bedding area? I’m confused
  2. 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
  3. 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
  4. 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
  5. 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
  6. 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 ?
  7. 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!!
  8. No , It was investigated for 3 years and conclusion was there was absolutely no Russian collusion , period .
  9. 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
  10. Great article . I’m wondering : will we suffer the same fate as Rome , ultimately , as a result of liberalism run amok ?
  11. I doubt that very much ; I’m Sure with the voter fraud controversy taking center stage, it’s taken a back seat for the moment . So , are you admitting the media is liberal biased and they feed their viewers fake news Then ? We’ve known that for a very long time !!
  12. Ok , cool , electronic calls ? You mean the phone app where it’s prerecorded ?
  13. Hey Guys , with opening day now just a week away , I’m starting to get my plan together for success , and , was wondering whether I should bring my grunt tube and Doe can with. I’ve used them before many times , but never felt like they added to my success. Not sure if I’m even making the calls right , especially with the grunt tube . Do you think calls are even necessary Or, effective during rifle Anyway? My Grandfather and Uncle never used them and they had reasonable success Over the years ? Just trying to Figure out if it’s even worth the trouble , Thanks
  14. Yeah , too tough to tell from that . Wi Th out any other input though I’d try that saddle feature close to the water
  15. Not sure , depends on the date this pic was taken . You do realize that Trump used to be a Democrat right ?
  16. Bummer , kind of puts a damper on the whole story doesn’t it ; thanks for sharing
  17. Really , nice , and did you use them during bow , rifle or both? I’m definitely gonna go snag one then and check it out ; even if it doesn’t get me one , I’d be interested in seeing how they react lol .
  18. Rolling back everything Obama did is a good thing and Probably wouldn’t take long considering he did next to nothing IMHO. I’m not sure what you mean about” who needs environmental protection” though ; are you saying that Republicans are against it and if so, what makes you say that ? Is your point The fracking thing ?
  19. That is not true ; maybe it won’t be substantiated , and the cases may be dismissed In court , IDK , but there is evidence of fraud . Remember : Just because a case isn’t proven in court doesn’t mean it’s not true( e.g. does anyone on here actually Believe that OJ’ s not guilty of murder?)
