Great pics! Where you live, Bud? Looks like a gorgeous area .

Yeah, I got mine from Amazon; didnt notice before, but its the Sawyer's brand:

This is cheaper?

Great post and thank you for the info- I feel alot better now!! So, youve been using for 15 years, then? How did you first hear of use of Permethrin for ticks? I never heard of it till my Uncle mentioned last year that he uses it .

Hey Guys; Just started using Permethrin this season for ticks and am a little nervous about long term effects. Anybody use it long term at this point and, if so, what are your thoughts? I ordered a bottle off Amazon fully mixed, 0.5% dilution concentration. That sounds like the ideal concentration based on what Ive read and heard so far. Of course, have been applying only to my outer garments and letting it dry day before to avoid wet contact skin absorption. Should I wear inner garments, though as sort of protective layer against the outer treated layer? If so, that would kind of suck cuz its been so hot out, cant imagine traipsing around the woods right now with 2 layers of clothes, let alone 1!! Also, what if your clothes get wet? Does it increase exposure ?

I agree ; maybe when affixing it to your deer, may have to put an additional tie around the tag and leg to prevent it from blowing around too much or something.

Just went to Davis and renewed my license; so, they give you all paper, even the tags!! Howre you supposed to prevent them from being damaged carrying em around throughout the season (unless you tag out first day, that is )? On the bright side, though, Got all of my requested DMP's this year-first time ever

Nice!! Visited your spot during shooting hrs , too! Smoke that coyote when you get a chance!!

Me either-whats the reason for change?

Hopefully, youll get some day shots too.

Nice; what time was it when they showed?

Thats a good idea! Looks pretty comfy to me!

Keep us posted !!

Nice groupings

I agree, but perhaps some of the bedding areas may remain the same ; that is , if you find any during summer scouting .

You go in every 3-4 weeks then to replace?

Yeah, I should set up some cams cuz i do believe in minimal intrusions is best, even if months away from the opener.

Anybody doin any scouting these days? Im goin next week to check out my stands, explore a couple new spots.

I agree with that, but would she do better against Trump than Sleepy Joe would?

Whats your feeling about Kamala replacing Biden ? Better for us or no?

It doesnt surprise me; not in the least. what these Lefties fail to understand is, that those of us on the right can do the same thing, adopt the same tactics , insist that Biden (well, not really him cuz hes so out of it ), or the Democrat party are Nazis and Fascists and need to be taken out and insist that we know were right and everyone else is a moron who doesnt agree with that assertion. But where does that get us? what does that lead to? Itd be like the Hartfield & Mccoys !! I like to think our side is above all that, though. I dont hate the Dems, dont wish for any violence upon them whatsoever, etc. But I DO want them voted out of office- so Lets do it!!

I saw a big Timber Rattler in the Neversink Gorge about 5 years ago, so, although rare, theyre around.

Awesome!! Thats my Cup 'O Tea right there!! Give that Puppy some exercise this summer!!

Agree; in fact, Im surprised they havent tried yet.

Are they dropping a little late this year? Ive only seen 1 or 2 around where im at.
