    What shell, choke tube are you using in that Rem 870, 20 ga.? How effective is it? I'm going out with the 20 ga. this May. Thanks in advance for reply. Food plots are legal in N.Y.. Their are tons of debate on here about them.

    Think deer keep'em on all year here.
  3. landtracdeerhunter
    Well, if you drop'em in October, don't have to worry about sheds now, lol

    Planted switchgrass next to the corn a couple years, grew to 5' tall. The deer ate it when young, and liked the cover. Stood rather well. Looks to have inproved the soil adding organic matter. Sun hemp looks like a better choice.

    Good idea on the hazel. Never give them a thought. I tend to use zone 5, as we tend to run colder, being away from the lake a ways. Rather play it safe, then sorry. Chinese chestnut sounds like a safer choice, by what I've read. Funny you mention Quince apples. Old time apple. Got a big old tree on the farm, the deer don't leave an apple on the ground. Always produces every year. Most people I've talked to, have never heard of them. This tree is bird planted, but looks like original. Sounds like your place is a ideal habitat for wildlife.

    I'm torn between planting American or Chinese Chestnut. trees From what I have read, the fungus is still in the American strain. Only have room for a half dozen trees, so what to do? Going with a few Red Mallberry trees also. Always was going to plant some, for some reason, never doing it.

    Yes, welcome. We run black and tans back in the 70's. Had one dog that would run quit until she tree. Best dog ever, and always come home with coon. Other dogs, had to leave the hunting coat, but never for her. We spent many a night in the woods. Those were the days.

    Don't know if anyone's as bad as this, but my calls are next to my bed. When my wife not expecting it, I let out a few yelps with the old box call, lol. She laughs it off.

    The fill rate is averaging about 9 % in this area. This is one of the lowest in the state. DEC want to take more deer out of your area, but not happening. Think they issued 17000 DMP, this past season. That number is sure to go up this coming season. Talking with a few people from there, some harvested more, some like your season. The deer are there, seen them in my travels around your town. Bet those orchards had deer in them during bow.

    Here it is middle of Jan. already. If the months go as fast as deer season flew by, it'll be here quick. Getting new chokes for the Rem. 12 and 20 ga.. Can't wait to get out to target practice.

    We use to make mead years ago, white as milk, but boy, what a kick.
  12. landtracdeerhunter
    Really nice mounts, bubba. The deer picture is a great idea. Thanks for showing.

    Quite a few old orchards were removed years ago, when apples took a dump. China apple juice with 24ppm arsinic in it is better for u than N.Y. apple drops.

    Winner receives $150 gift certificate from the sponser. To bad he didn.t introduce himself,before most everyone jumped on him. Agreed, very tough crowd here.

    Post look to be 6 x 6 half round, PT. Beatiful job of installation. Draft apple trees on wire are being planted. Bud lose is very high, on unprotected orchards.
  16. landtracdeerhunter
    The fence is 2- 4 ft sections of 6 x 12 inch mesh stock fence, one on top of the other. 2 or more strands of barb wire are added 10 inches apart, at the top, for a total height of 10 feet. The cost is about $ 4 / linear foot for material & installation. Chromeslayer, take a ride down 31 east, to Medina. They are showing up in Orleans County.

    Maybe should of called local law enforcement. They could of called fire Co., put the fire out, and give him a ticket for open burn.
  18. landtracdeerhunter
    Welcome to the forum. Congrat on the deer harvests. Nice to see a father, son together with some very nice deer.

    i've been looking all over for this topic. Mine's boke to now, no more wavy red line underneath. Just updated Firefox last week, thats when I lost it. I REALLY need my wavt reed lin..
  20. landtracdeerhunter
    I think all big game NY road kill need to be tagged, by law enforcement. Does anyone know if it applies to small game and trapping animals? Anyone know a link?

    Went to Dicks in Greece, over the weekend. They have good selection of the scent proof cloths, at 50% off. Good selection of tree stands, some marked down, and limited mark down on guns. They also have a limited supply of help, which can be expected after Christmas. One cashier and 15 minute wait. Watch the Giants swabbing Antlanta, so all wasn't lost. The other general item selection is alot lower in inventory.

    Some friends of ours, just dug a pond. They had to have an Eviormental Impact Study done before the first shovel full of dirt was moved. They also couldn't transport any dirt off their property. The last may have been a local code.
  23. landtracdeerhunter
    A dollar a pound, to bad the whole lot wasn't missmarked, what a buy. Do u think the yield on the corn was good enough?
  24. landtracdeerhunter
    Very nice mount. The kIt looks so much better than the less expensive ones. The rivits really dress it up. Thanks for posting. I'll be getting a couple from Cabelas. Want to make my own, that day hasn't come, yet.

    People, I thought the idea was to encourage young hunters into the field. This is not the way. We've all been there, a bad shot is always a possible outcome. How many young readers are you influencing here. We want to encourage young peoples posts. This can be a great learning experience.
