And how many new members joined in the past yr? I still visit the site because it does have some good members. I've never bashed the site, but it has no leadership. I will bash the owner who is absent and let a great site go downhill.

Is anything he posted incorrect or not factual?

Too cute. And moms birthday too.

I've been rat free for yrs. My coop and run is 100% predator proof. Well, maybe except bears.. I have my ventilation and windows, on the coop covered with hardware cloth(HC). My run is covered in HC. The entire perimeter of the coop/run has a HC apron that extends out 18" to stop digging predators, like rats. The only thing getting in is a baby mouse, and that's just a snack for the gals. I also use a bucket feeder. It keeps the gals from wasting food and kicking it onto the floor. I've never had to use poison or traps.

Shouldn't this be taught in the general hunting course?

You forget, John started this site in a very similar situation. Old site was having issues, he decided to start his own, sound familiar?

Show me a post where I said I despise this site. I'll wait.

Who says I'm keeping tabs on this site? I pop in occasionally and if there's something to comment on or like, I do so. Several others do the same. Also curious why the owner hasn't checked in for well over a yr. Basically stole money from members and is either to embarrassed or doesn't care to respond. It's a fair question. One I'm sure others would like a answer to. And thanks for saying the other site is the best in the state. Appreciate it.

Go ahead. I'll leave it up to you.

Google it. You'll find it.

So is bum john back in the picture? Can new members join? Is he going to finely send out the t-shirts or refund the money's members ordered in good faith?

It's only 4 days old. At least the owner is front and center, and actually answers questions and contributes to the site.

I noticed your thread about the other place is gone. And some others. Thinking word got back to bumjohn.

I'd test again in a day or two.

Glands swollen? No.. not the lower glands...

At least he stopped in front of the pet cemetery. He wanted company, lol.

I went out this morning. Had 4 doe walk by. Nothing in tow.

Very nice. I also use YouTube to figure things out.

Definitely skipping the afternoon hunt. Monday looks better.

I've been shooting mine for the past couple weeks. All set for tomorrow.

From what I heard, she had a couple hundred attend. Pathetic...

Went to a Zeldin rally yesterday. Over 3k people attending in southern Rensselaer county. Most of the republican candidates spoke. Great speeches, lots of energy.

Where I hunt, both landowners let people walk their properties during archery season. Some with dogs. Most will limit the walks to mid day because of hunting season, and some stop completely, but some just don't care. The deer are so used to people walking. I've watched deer leave the fields only to return a few minutes later after the people are out of sight. Most only walk the field edges, but some do walk the trails. Once rifle starts, property is off limits to people walking. I've had to remind several over the yrs about the rules. Some told me they didn't care about what I said, they have permission. They learned quickly.

That's awesome. Thanks for sharing. And I thought fletching my own arrows was cool, lol

I was doing a leaf cleanup and was cleaning up a large garden area with my backpack leaf blower, when out of the corner of my eye, I see a deer running directly at me. Doe stops 20 yards away, looks back, and sure enough, here comes a 4pt. He chased her through the lawn and across the field to the back woods. Neither of them cared I was there with a leaf blower running only 20y away.
