MC's in NY have had titles since the mid '70's. All Registration certificate have transfer of ownership on the back, but you can only use that if the front has " transferable" on the front. If the owner of the MC can't find the title, and it was registered in his name, he can apply for a lost title.

I think the hash browns help bind them and add texture. Never tried them without. I used BBQ sauce and blu cheese dressing for dips. A tiger sauce would be great too.

I called in a big bear probably 25 yrs ago in the Catskills while turkey hunting. This was 10 yards from me popping it's jaw. I was filming some friends from Maine, and had nothing but a camera. Stupid broken pipe in the basement ruined all my tapes.

I've always found it odd North NJ has a large bear population. Lots of large mature forest in my area and a decent amount of corn fields sprinkled around. In 30+ yrs hunting the same properties I've never seen a bear while hunting, and only last fall did I get a cell cam pic of one.

You definitely have no clue.

I've blocked holes in old fences and made new ones closer to my stand. Old hole was around 55 yards. New one was 25yrds. Sometimes the deer would just jump the fence at the old location, other times they would use the new hole. Never killed anything for that stand.

In my immediate hunting area, there is very few overgrown fields. Most are cut for hay. Lots of brushy hedge rows, and a couple large swamps that have brushy edges. Couple of the fields were cow paddock's back in the 80's. Those were almost impossible to walk through 10-15 yrs ago. Now the scrub brush is 20'+ tall and the thick canopy is over my head. See turkeys in there all fall eating the little berries that they produce.

I guess my area is against the norm of decline. Decent amount of farming in the area, mostly corn and hay fields. Tons of predators, and lots of turkeys. Seeing good amount of poults, some close to mom's size, some partridge size. Also seen several bachelor groups.

Thanks, There pretty comfy. But next time get a half size larger..

The owl pic is cool. It's like it knew the cam was there.

Nice, how much did that set you back?

We get ven hot dogs made there every yr. Great place

Ingredients: 1 lb hot sausage, uncooked 1 lb bacon, cooked and chopped (approximately 1 cup chopped bacon) 1 (1-oz) package Ranch dressing mix 1 (8-oz) package cream cheese, softened 1½ cups Bisquick 1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese ½ (30 to 32-oz) package frozen shredded hash brown potatoes (about 4 cups). I smoke them at 225° for 40min, then crank up the temp to 350° for a couple minutes to crisp up the outside. You can use your oven for the last part.

Well that explains a lot...

I've made them several times. Always I big hit.

As many as you think you need. Difficult to pin it down. Is one a fawn, a lager doe, huge buck?

So glad we did this. It's been about 3 weeks since it's been installed. Install and water cost $2400. Electric to code cost me $750 as I did most of the work myself. So I've got $3150 in a "free pool" lol. In the process of extending the deck and that will add about $500 to the total. Chemicals added another $250. We've been enjoying the pool multiple times a day. Nephews and nieces have been over several times. We've seen these kids more in the past few weeks more than we've seen them over the past few yrs, lol. Seeing them has made it more than worth the cost.. Wife and I are in it every evening. And most days, I stop home from doing lawns and jump in quick to cool off, then go back out mowing. Even though the water temp is 84°, it feels refreshing when the outside temps are in the 90's. Evenings are different.. the air temps are in the upper 60's to low 70's and I actually get chills when I stand up as the air temps are lower than the water temps. The warm water actually feels good when the evening temps are lower. Overall, were very happy with our decision..

I've worn hearing protection when I'm mowing lawns or operating machinery for 30yrs. Unfortunately before that I didn't and the ringing in my left ear is annoying as hell.

I still have mine somewhere. Thing was accurate.

Bobcat pics are fantastic.
