Already reported my take. Others in my camp 1 Buck, bow 4W 2 Bucks gun 4W

Skillet thanks for all the information.

Skillet, what does a bear hunt cost? How big were the bears?

One buck, 4W with rifle regular season One doe, 4W with rifle regular season

Maybe that 5% isn't exactly the right %. What about the guys who shoot more than one and don't report their take. Either legally or illegally. Just MHO

Why do we have such a problem with the gov't restricting our rights to own guns? But no problem with them restricting what we can hunt. The more they restrict what we can hunt the more they can restrict what guns we can buy. Just MHO

Buck is a 22 mag too light for coyote? I also have a 243 which would be better?

Glad those local/woodchucks were caught. Watch your back, and your home if it's on your hunting ground.

I believe there is already a season on bobcats.

Got a shot at one with the bow only 20 yards from stand, had the shooting rail down on my ladder stand and when I took the shot hit the rail. Missed and he just mulled around then climber up a ledge and walked away. Too interested in watching him and didn't knock another arrow, he didn't even see me.

One buck per season. To answer the question.

My thinking exactly, one never know do one.

I hunt in 4W , there will be AR in my area next year. Which I am not in favor of even though my camp doesn't shoot spikes but that is our choice. This year our gang did pretty good we shot a 10 pt, two 8pt bucks and a 5pt buck. So I would say we are satisfied we don't expect for everyone to get a buck but that's ok. Plus we shot one doe the last weekend. I don't think that AR will make things better,it will just take away our choice as hunters.

Are you saying that in the western part of the state they don't shoot spikes and forkhorn bucks. I would conclude that there are more deer killer in WNY than in the southern tier and there fore more spikes as well. Just MHO ,But no AR??

I thought it was beneficial to good wildlife management and improved the deer herd. Being that it has been effect in some areas now and it's supposed to be good,. why wouldn't it be good for all areas. Are you now saying that it might not work in some areas? I know it's not your decision, but going my your logic I would think all you AR guys would want this state wide.

Steve if that's the case then why didn't the DEC make AR mandatory state wide ?

4 seasons it was just a joke lighten up, we do joke on this site once and a while.

So anyone who shoots a 1 1/2 year old buck is a killer, I thought we were all hunters on this site. No matter what your opinion was on a thread. So now we are citidoits and killers just because we don't see it your way. What a group of divided individuals we have on this site, just argue and insulting each other we are worse than the anti hunting group. If they ever read this site they would know they have already have us beat. We have met the enemy and it is us.

If I remember correctly back in the late 60's and 70's we use to kill about 95,000 deer a year. Fast forward 2010 we have been killing in excess of about 200,000 deer a year. So something must be working, so what else will we get with Ar? In the short term we get less deer take, hunter dissatisfaction, and loss of some hunters. Why? So some can shoot bigger bucks with better racks. Totally a political move nothing to do with hunter satisfaction, even DEC reports there is little benefit. In the long term the rack hunters get what they want at the expense of the rest of the hunting population.

Maybe he hunts under a feeder!

what was antler gate?

shit out of Luck

Congratulations nice holiday present from Santa. My son's wife is due on the 21st of Dec, can't wait first grandchild. Enjoy Christmas
