Great morning tons of doe and a 6pt that I could have put a 5yrd shot on. I hated leaving the stand at q after 8 for a doctors appt. I was thinking why did I schedule this apt so freakin early. I got there at 9 only to hear it was at noon. Damn idiot!!

So crunchy going in..there was a frost heaving and the leafs were frozen...took so long getting to stand trying to be quiet..it was getting light....JUST TO FIND...the deer were bedded under my stand...nice!! :fie: ...so we had snorting and stomping...I couldn't get the grunt tube out so hit the doe bleat...and kept walking just to see they never ran too far...any who they scattered and I got settled in the stand...at 7 a big doe ran out and crossed down from me right next to the cardboard blind...then a fawn followed...there were 6 beds between 15ft and 30ft from my stand so I was waiting and watching for more...10mins later a young 8pt circled in behind me ...I tried to get him closer...50yrds out and the grunt tube was froze..so hit bleat can..mistake he lowered his head and picked up his pace to get out of there....by 9a.m. I was frozen...went and cleaned tree limbs.trees off the trails...Oh  had 2 turkey fly down ..one next to me and one was roosted over the blind...good morning

Small bucks chasing doe on public land in 8N last night, I was doing the tilt-a-whirl trying to get a shot at a doe, didn't work out, headed doen to southern tier to hunt state land and private with my girlfriend. Glad she finally has time to get out.

Saw 7pt and two half racks. Walking in I hear chasing going on but I continue on towards my stand. Then 3 doe come my way. They snort and take off, I snort wheeze and grunt with my mouth. I hear a crash and one coming my way all stiff legged in the brush. We must have been 20-30yrds apart. Then I hear him start walking away does a deep grunt followed by a wheeze and takes off on the chase. Land owner said they saw a giant back there a week ago!! Then 10am came and it was decision time, crap myself or get out. I stayed..just kidding

      Hi Everyone, 
      It is current the last week for regular season in upstate NY. Living the life working and being a full time student, I have some time off this week and would like to take a ride upstate to do a gun hunt. Never have I hunted public land in the areas 3 G, F, or N and was looking for some recommendations and help! I had used the DEC info locator and found California Hill and thought I might go there. Is there any recommendations on areas to go to in any of the wmu’s? Or on California? Any help would be really appreciated!! 
       
      best of holiday wishes!

      Hello everyone I’m currently looking at a house in deposit ny I’ve been deer hunting for many year mainly in Columbia and Greene county never been to Broome county. Before anything I was just curious how is the hunting there ? I know there aren’t any antlered restrictions in Broome but are there monsters out there or is it mainly just small spike? If anyone from that county or knows about deposit and broome county would get back to me i would appreciate it. Hope everyone hunting today catch a big one thanks.

      The procedure below to carry the bow is detailed below:
      You have to use a cotton towel or something similar. You have to wrap it around the bowstring. Doing so ensures that it will not cause an injury with the bowstring coming in contact with your body. It will not be that sharp either. Once you cover the bowstring with the towel, you have to wear it like a sling. So that it will not fall away from your body. The best way to cover the bowstring is to use a large enough towel. You can wrap it around twice as well. When making a sling out of the cotton towel, you have to ensure that you tighten it to get a snug fit. In that case, it will not slip away. Consequently, it will remain in place. When using this technique to carry a bow on your back, it is essential to practice before going in the wilderness. Only when you can move briskly and without noise using the scanning mechanism should you go ahead with it. To remove the bow, you have to hold it at the bottom. After that, you have to slip it over your head as well as arm. Doing so ensures that you can remove it quickly. When trying to focus on a prey, you need to remove the bow quickly. The technique for removal that we have highlighted above can certainly help you do so.

      I'm new to the area and looking for some places to hunt  the next few weekends through bow/muzzleloader season. I'm living in New Paltz, and the place that seems the most promising to me so far is Vernooy Kill State forrest, and north into Sundown. Has anyone had any luck in these areas? Is there anywhere better in the area I should check out? Any info is welcome

      Hi Everyone,
      My name is Raul and I am a new hunter! I've been hunting public land for now, but have been suffering. I've done 2 10 hour sits at Kings Park and 3 10 hour sits at Rocky Point and haven't seen one deer. I use a treestand and use scent blocker. I also get there super early in the morning. I need help! I plan to go again this friday. I scouted Rocky point after the first day and always see sign and I try to hunt the areas, but no success. I hunt around 42 and 36 I think. If someone wants the exact spot I can send them it on a map. I am really just looking for help in any areas and everything. I have put so much effort yet all i want is to just see one that will keep moral up. Any help is really appreciated!
