  1. Good luck, I just put in myself tonight for it. It’s my fourth year applying. What’s crazy is I know a guy who got picked his second year and then another guy who’s been putting in close to 18 years. I guess this thing is pure luck in the drawing.
  2. What a great morning for hunting, was able to put down this doe. Hope everybody else is enjoying the day, this season has been difficult with the weather for me so far..
  3. I have to say that is impressive, just the idea of getting that close on the ground with the bow around these woods seems like a really difficult task. But I certainly give credit to those guys finding success with this tactic....
  4. So to make a long story short some clown (and that’s putting it lightly) decided it was cool to let an arrow loose before legal shooting time. Make matters worse he almost hit another hunter. That hunter being a young kid out with his dad. Here’s the link to read the story https://forums.bowsite.com/tf/regional/thread.cfm?threadid=242312&messages=51&state=Ct Makes me think about wearing orange during bow season as well. Some people are just reckless...anybody wear orange during bow season?
  5. My buddy ran into two guys the past two days who are “stalking” deer while bow hunting. I thought this was kind of funny as he states he saw these guys walking all over. Eventually he got to talking with them and apparently they got “five deer” last year in westchester doing just that. I can understand maybe with the rifle doing this but with the bow it seems a little crazy. I know out west that it’s a different story but northeast stalking with a bow seems to me like an impossible odd... anybody here have success in the northeast slowly walking the woods with your bow and catching deer?
  6. Good luck to everyone, most importantly stay safe and have some fun, I’ll be at work but will check in routinely to see if there are any pics coming in...
  7. Man you know that must of hurt!!! I’ll be avoiding flaming shots as I don’t want to lose what hair I have left on my head! It’s Miller time for me...
  8. “Still fun to watch” I give you credit every time I watched a game I thought my blood pressure was through the roof. I walked out on two games because they were losing so bad by the third period. Theres only one place for this team to go this season and that’s up from last year. Funny part is the Rangers tanking last year got me into going to college hockey games, now that was a great experience.
  9. Just got a new job so opening day bow for me will be on the 6th. I have my spots all set to go though. One thing is for sure I’ll be looking over the forums to see whatcha guys are getting. So make sure you all post some pics...
  10. LGR!!! Not expecting much from them this year but should be fun to see some young talent trying to prove themselves to the organization/fan base. All in all I’m thrilled hockey is back on tho. It’s the one sport my girlfriend loves watching as much as I do and we don’t argue over what to watch when they are playing lol
  11. That’s a good looking mount you got there. It’s cool that you put it together as well. Enjoy it!
  12. Thanks for the feed back guys. I took this bear up in Maine last year. Im trying to recall her weight, think it was around 240-250 dressed. Not sure on the overall height of the mount just yet tho....
  13. I have to admit I wasn’t responsible in this capacity for a long time. I’ve been hunting for many years just like a lot of guys on this forum. I’ve just started using a harness. I don’t know what I was thinking all those years going up the tree without one on. Guess it has to do with the “young-invincible mentality”. I wear one now but feel somewhat lucky I never did take a fall. It should be a must every single time....
  14. My taxidermist sent me some pics of my bear mount, needless to say I can’t wait for it to come home. Apparently he has some minor stuff to work on still, what do you guys think.....
  15. Its totally worth it, in the end if your not doing it for yourself at least think about the people around you.... I just gave up smoking cigarettes, can't tell you how many times I've tried quitting, hopefully this time sticks for you. The true test will come this spring when I pick back up with the fishing. For whatever reason fishing and smoking go hand in hand for me. After a month in I do feel better, give it some time you'll start feeling better both mentally and physically, good luck to ya!
  16. Hunting buddy lost his car keys and wallet this year as we were heading to our hunting spot thanksgiving morning, felt bad for him, but felt even worse when he missed a solid six pointer, he won't even discuss that day, guess it's still a sore spot...
  17. Just watched Wind River like two weeks ago on a snow day with the girlfriend, we were captivated from start to finish, excellent movie.....
  18. Congrats bro, looks like you guys had a great trip!!
  19. Honestly wouldn't consider anything but a pickup truck, the option of switching from 2wd to 4wd is great, and for the outdoors lifestyle just fits in perfectly. Ive always had some interest in the Subarus though, must be with their marketing strategy, commercials are always in the great outdoors hahaha!!!
  20. Nice buck, I'm still pursuing my first "wall hanger", not an easy task on public property, congrats!!!!
  21. Okay so I watched about 20 mins as I was exhausted from work and fell asleep, my thoughts from what I watched was that I was happy to see them address the large negative impact poaching is having on rhinos and elephants and how there is a huge demand on the black market for their tusk..... only part I got annoyed with was the way the guy was going about hunting the crocodile, just seemed like an idiot and didn't represent hunting appropriately with a few remarks he made, "Cecil the lion remark" I definitely will watch the remainder of it when I have a day off this week....
  22. Yikes, I'm a little nervous as to how this film is going to portray Hunters , I'm sure we'll be made out to be terrible people. I'm just hoping there's a healthy debate and the facts are put out there correctly, I can just hear it now from the anti-hunting community....
