I could put outside and it will be gone in a day, but would rather sell it to someone who will appreciate it. It was $300+ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

And if you shoot an antelope and want to mount it be extremely careful with the hair. It's comes out very easily. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Long range bow kills are cool videos, you can usually see the arrow in flight. The arc is a lob into the vitals. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Damn....that's a nice young one Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Typically if it's fresh it will be obvious. You will see the bark on top of the leaves Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good luck preaching to many of these guys. They don't understand how it is out west. They wouldn't know how to hunt spot and stalk and shoot long range. No tree stands to hide in, and very rare to get a short shot. 40-50 yards on an elk, muley, antelope is a chip shot out west and that's with the heavy winds that we don't have here on the east coast. Those guys out west laugh at how boring it is to sit in a treestand all day waiting for something to walk by. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sounds good. Should I come for the xbow opener or gun opener? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Why white and not green or brown? Just curious Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I've always thought of Remington as crap. Only thing Remington I ever owned was a jacket I think.

Same here for me and my Dad. It's never happened, but we both would expect the other to finish a wounded deer off to help the other. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It's all about the right piece. My dad and I hunt 8 acres. We sit about 200-250yds away. There are some rolling hills/valleys between us, so we can't each see each other or anything like that. Many times we see the same deer the same day, many days we don't. We both hunt from the ground siting against trees. We've killed more than 30 bucks combined in the last 20 years or so and I don't hunt much and turned down smaller bucks the last few years. Many days we don't see deer, but when we see one it's usually 50-50 chance it's a buck. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I sit on the ground with my xbow, so when it's warm I use this light mesh mask. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Maybe. But if all landowners who's property borders the paper road have legal access then we would be fine. I believe it's about 300 yards from one parcel we would own to the other. So those 300 yards would be accessible to other adjoining landowners but they can't come on lands where we would hunt. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I don't use them. Tried a handful of times with no response Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks guys. I'll check the signs when I go Saturday but I believe the non hunting land is watershed property, but not the DEP fishing/hunting type. It's those "no access" watershed signs my dad said. We've hunted other land in the past that borders no hunting watershed land and we were told to just call and ask for permission to cross the line to retrieve our deer and never had a problem doing so.

As of now the 20 acres and the surrounding areas are not buildable so that's why taxes are very low ($2k instead of probably something like $20-$30k). The current owner said that a neighboring landowner many years approached him about needing to grade his property in order for this other guy to build a driveway. The cost was $100k. The landowner of the piece we are looking at of course said no since he didn't want people to build anyway, as he used this land for hunting. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

As I mentioned several times, my Dad is very serious about buying a piece of property for hunting either in NY or CT. He has no intentions of building, so land that cannot be built on would be good for him since the taxes would be lower, etc. That being said, is anybody familiar with "Paper Roads"? My Dad is very interested in the attached 20 acre lot, which comes with 2 other small lots. All 3 are circled in blue. The 2 small lots are tiny but on a paved road that can be used for parking. The red line is how you get from the 2 lots to the 1 large 20 acre that would be used for hunting. The red line I drew follows what the town/county is calling a paper road. Of course, my dad would need to get an attorney involved but I was just wondering if anyone of you had experience with this "paper road" concept. I will be walking the property Saturday with my dad, the current owner, and his real estate agent assuming no rain. My Dad has already walked the property and talked to the only nearby neighbors who said there are "too many deer". The 100+ acre piece is owned by the county/state and is posted heavily with no access allowed signs, so the 20 acres hunts much bigger since no houses are near it. When my Dad walked the property he saw lots of deer sign, and acorns everywhere. Thanks in advance.

Still waiting for this answer. Is you were quoted 80+% maybe u have a gripe. But if this outfitters success rates are 10-20% then u fell right into the % who weren't successful. Further, you only hunted 3 days, not 5. As someone who has been on several guided, semi-guided, and DIY hunts, it falls on the hunter to do his due diligence. I always ask opportunity rates, success rates, speak with previous hunters, Google around, ask around on local forums etc. did you look into Missouri hunting forums? Etc etc etc Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What did they claim their success rates to be when you asked them before you went? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
