I would think his junior license would be good up to September 30th 2012. I would also, check with the DEC,. Would be interested in the reply you receive.

This one works , 75 days 9 hours 29 minutes. The others are not the same. Also checked my time and date which are correct. Thanks for saving the day.

Anyone noticing the times are ahead by 50+ minutes on the recent topic post. Could be just my new lap top?

Page before this one, #38. The one above is show 1383 days too, on my rig.

Me thinks the countdown timer went haywire. Hope it's not that long. 1383 days?

Right in the door yard, no less. Everyone teasing alittle for the upcoming season. Thanks for the pics.

I find it interesting that every time crossbows are brought up for archery season, it becomes an informational thread.

Their is a related topic under Bow Hunting.

I've got 5 trees to prune. They have been let go for years. Some are 40 feet high I bet. Is there any way to lower the height without destroying the tree or is it best to just trim some lower growth and let the top go. Most of the production is on the upper branches. They are filled with blossoms each year but set only maybe 5 % fruit. Also, don't want to overload the tree with fruit as I'm sure, not the strongest. The lower main branches are maybe 12 inches in diameter off the trunk. Their the type of apple, the deer stand on their hind legs for the fruit. I do have some experience prunning dwarf orchard trees.

Doesn't matter the color or type, they still get shot up and stolen just as easily. If they were nailed on a board, it would be an easier take.. Can't believe the people that just don't care about anyone elses property. Their not put there for someones bar room. Bet the replacement cost is quite high.

Looks like a nice setup eddie. Maybe take a little time to get use to. Does it have good video quality? I like the idea of filming your own hunts.

The state requires instructors to spend hours of training on archery, but only 15- 20 minutes of class time on crossbow. Alot of time went into that thought process didn't it. Do they break down the firing mech. or explain how each part works? That would eat up 15-20 minutes, by itself. Just don't understand this state sometimes. I'm not trying to slow the process, just worried some of the younger archers walking around with fewer fingers.

Thanks for the replies everyone. Glad you enjoyed it. Dinner went well, Lobster prices are up and their was a shortage in our area. I thought about hunting supplies, for the misses, but that just wouldn't fly, if you know what I mean. I do see a dozen bolts on the horizon though., maybe for the old birthday.

Congrats. Enjoy when he's young, cause they sure don't stay that way long. Time seems to fly faster with grand children.

I wanted to take the crossbow out during muzzle loader last season. Just needed more confidence or something, never did use it. So much more different than a compound. Never had the same issues with that. More practice this year, hopefully heading afield with it. Maybe take a bow coarse over, to go through safety issues of it. Nothing like teaching from a good instructor, and hands on. Owe it to the deer.

The turkeys don't start showing up on the farm here, till mid to late March. I always thought that they seek out a longer range as they need to for food, for being the reason. With this years open winter, might not see any; time will tell. I spread manure on some of the fields,during winter months, which others say will draw them, but that doesn't seem to work. Have not seen a coyote track in the mud or what snow we have had, this winter, so ruleing that out. I have seen a flock of 100 or better robins the last two weeks, and we're loaded with bluebirds also.

Hope everyone has someone special to celebrate, share your special moment with. ( If so choose) What are you doing for this special day? Studies show the average male spends $130 on their valentine and the average female spend about half. Some people even buy their co-workers something. My wife and I have a special dinner at home. I buy her a nice size lobster, shes for me, a nice angus steak, along wiith twice baked potato, and whole asparagus on the grill..We kind of prepare the meal together. ( More or less)

A few months ago, Larry the Cable Guy, with his show, Made In America made a surprize visit to the Palins homestead in Alaska. Her husband spent alot of time with Larry and his camera crew, but Sarah just waived and headed out jogging towards the end of the interview. She did leave a note in their van. Did anyone else see this?

It's really great to see people wanting to support American made products. If only more people would think this way. Vendors can keep the China junk on their shelves. Would you believe it ; when I picked up an American flag, the other day, that was made in China, made me sick. They can keep it, send it back to China; I'll buy an American, thank you!

I'm afraid Israel is going to attack Iran putting the U.S. at war with them. While this president has sit on his hands for three years doing nothing. Israel doen't want Qbama reelected, ant this might end his reign.

Can't be no worse bubba. Reminder wooffer- we are living in a democratic state.

It's possible. I've seen fresh rubs right into Feb. here this year. Not uncommon in other years either. Seen fawns other years here in late April. Early bred does. Some of the older doe fawns freshen, and are bred late. Those are the little ones running around during gun season.

Society has always relied on drugs and alcohol to ease their pain. People have the power, but not the strength, sometimes, to over power their addiction. Depression is a stong force in nature. You see and read about it all the time. Does a famous person's death teach people, doesn't seem so. Maybe if one person can take notice, and turn their life around, then all has not been loss.

Think she ahead of her time. Don't think a majority of the people are ready for a women president, quite yet. She does speak alot of truth, but, who was it that said, " you can't handle the truth?"

I think an xbow has it's place. it sure is a challange ,cocking them " true " in a tree stand. Can't say I would use one all the time, but it's sure nice having weapons of choice.
