Saw two in the Delaware River canoeing with my son about two years ago. Just north of Callicoon. Dave

Antler lots of people shop but don't buy. I think this will be the case.Dave

Pat, how much snow is on the ground?Dave

Just don't want you to get turned into the spanking police. For untimely spanking Dave

As long as it's within legal spanking time.Dave

How do you think these recent snow storms will affect the deer mortality? Will there be a significant winter kill this year? What areas will be hit the hardest? Dave

Antler I was talking about civility in general that everyone should uphold in responding and posting. Dave

I think I will take the high road and put an end to my part of this cluster f---. Catch you on another thread hope it will be more pleasant. 4 seasons is right this is hurting the site, lets be civil with each other in the future.Dave

Make sure you wear gloves Pat. I think I remeber something from another thread about them sitting in front of their computers with the lights on and pants around their ankles, lol 370 some odd posts in the latest thread.....I think if anyone hasn't gotten their point across by now it may be a little too late. It's turned into a big pissing match and some of you aren't even facing the right way to play along anymore. ??? Wolly thanks I needed a good laugh, priceless. A good laugh is way better than listening to antler.Dave

As Ronald Regan would say "there you go again". I wasn't mentioned it was you, Bubba, and Rocket.I just commented on the post. Which I agreed with, that's it.Dave

What makes matters worse is that Bubba is a magistrate (Justice of the Peace) One would think he would have better judgement. I agree it has to stop, not having too much fun on this site anymore. Whole site is being hijacked by a few with very strong opinions.Dave

You talk about reading into things you do a pretty good job yourself. Maybe you are off your meds, You should seek some help, delusional . Or do you just like to hear yourself talk, if you listened to you , you probably wouldn't like yourself, probably want to kick your own ass. I truly feel sorry for you, Dave

Bubba, I think you are getting a big head, a legend in your own mind. Do you think that we have to respect you because you are a JP. in some little town. Are you a Judge Roy Bean wanna be? Your give and take with Rocket sure sounds like someone with no compassion for people that aren't as fortunate as you.Dave

How the West Was Won, Henry Fonda, Jason Robards, Charles Bronson, Claudia Cardanal. Great movie and another Quigly Down Under with Tom Sellick, Like My westerns. Dave

LOL! I don't think those hungry africans who were tearing the meat off of that elephant were too worried about the ethics of shooting before legal light! LOL After all Bubba teaches hunters ed only here in NYS! LOL Steve I think we should send Bubba and Antler over there and straighten them out. They may end up in the pot and be served as soup of the day. I'll miss them, belch!!!!!!!!Dave

Bought a Waring grinder last year from Cabela's for $99 , has 3 different grinding grades , fine to course. Great for grinding chopped meat. Had to make a minor adjustment now it works much better. Dave

I could be wrong but I think he shot before legal light........Poacher. Dave

stop complaining about what other hunters are doing and just hunt! You'll have a far better experience.Did you not make the above statement? Were you not complaining about OTHER hunters shooting 5 to 10 minutes before and after legal light? Stating they were unethical and they were breaking the law, I think that qualifies as complaining. What happened to STOP complaining? Dave

Quote from: nyantler on Today at 12:34:11 pm<blockquote>I think the answer to the question is for everyone to just shut up and hunt... if you see something happening that you think is illegal call the DEC . then go back to hunting... if you don't like the people that hunt on the land with you.. hunt somewhere else... stop complaining about what other hunters are doing and just hunt! You'll have a far better experience. Antler that's not what you have been saying on this thread. Have a change of heart? Oh, you say things then change your mind, now I remember. Dave </blockquote>

And yes there are many here who have a problem dealing with the fact that some of us wouldn't shoot before or after legal time... the posts show that as well « Last Edit: Today at 12:30:34 pm by nyantler » Report to moderator Logged Joe Servel Antler I don't remember anyone stating they have a problem when you shoot or don't shoot or what time you shoot. It is that some have a problem with whose who shoot a FEW minutes before or after sunrise and sunset. That was the original question, and had nothing to do with you shooting at legal light. Dave

I can accept the very simple fact that you "don't think there is a hunter alive who hasn't bent the rules to their favor at one time or another." However, what you must accept is the fact that there are many of us who hunt each year who follow the laws to the letter, and would not dream of hunting any other way. Why are you having trouble dealing with that? Arrow I hate to break it to you but this isn't a perfect world. In a polite way I think you live in La, La Land.Dave

Steve I think these guy's would want to make a law that you can't go into the woods till legal hunting time. Or have the police monitor every one that goes into the woods and come out. Makes me sad that a few out there have such low opinion of other hunters ethics. To base ones character on only a few minutes doesn't seem fair. Sad commentary. Must be tough to walk such a saintly path.Dave

Steve I am quite sure if we had an secret ballot your conclusion would be correct. Pat's little survey showed 6 of 7 agreed. So I guess we can conclude that most hunters would take the shot. That is my opinion, some may not agree, and some will not admit it. The mountain has many secrets.Dave

For you it is a few. Another said less than 10 minutes. Another said 10 minutes is fine. I bet we could find someone who says 15 is OK. It is what it is. Individual decisions like every thing else in life we make them everyday some good and some bad. It's just life, we just deal with it.Dave

If you are so concerned go look up the word FEW. It doesn't mean 10 or 30, that's the problem you want to make a mountain out of a mole hill. Not going to go there, a few is a few nothing more.Dave
