I bumped 4 deer on a slow stalk this a.m 2 hrs to walk 1300ft on all 4 sides....even with glassing I couldn't spot them in time with the heavy snow cover and fog....got a text .....another huge 8pt was taken on the other side of neighbor....looks almost exactly like the twelve i missed the other day...thought it was at first...text pic wasn't good...but they said it's an 8pt....not very many tracs and the snow is 4in and very wet with a crust middle layer...

I'd say last night many deer died, I heard more shots from 4 to 5 than all the other afternoons combined. My buddy took a nice 8pt 24 inch inside spread close to my stands,3rd nice buck with in a few hundred yard spot.

went out at 1:30. made it about 300 yards from the car and realized i forgot my grunt call, again. set my climber down and two tails bounded away. ran to the car and retrieved my call. walked up into the woods and set up. it poured, then came the fog, then the wind, then the rain/sleet/snow. weather man said it was going to clear up. well he lied, again. i was drenched and frozen. had one cruise in at 4 and it was about 30 yards away and almost missed it because of the rain. just a skipper. tomorrow is a new day, and hopefully my camos will be dry. time to go take care of the gun. good luck to all!

Larry, would love to see a picture of that deer. I love seeing bucks with those impressive spreads. My friend got a 9pt the other night that was fairly tall and 20".. 24" must be amazing

Filled my 2 DMAPs on the farm this evening. Had 2 does come trotting across the field edge, as I was standing on the ground with my buddy's Remmy 870. I shot the first, taking out both front shoulders. She went skidding into the woods and the second one followed right in her tracks and met the same fate. No hero pics of these ones, too much work to do. One was old and the other was a yearling. Its all trophy hunting for me from here on out.

Farm is not wild about sharing pics. Of deer ,the faces have been cut out to protect our spot ....

Protect your spot by covering your face? LOL. What if somebody tracks your IP address? Haha. Nice jeans by the way.

      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!
