Northcountryman Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 Starting to feel that excitement building up in me- with a little anxiety too!! From now till saturday morning, gonna be hard for me to sleep as all that I can think about is hunting; the planning and setup, the walk-in in the morning to my stand, the thrill of -potentiially, at least- seeing the buck of a lifetime. I cant wait!!! And yet, I still feel ill prepared ; ami I ready? am I ever ready?? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWJD_Hunter Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 (edited) Yesterday , I set up a stand for Saturday opener. Tonight I washed my orange gear and hung it outside until Friday. Still undecided on what caliber gun I will be using Saturday Edited November 14, 2022 by WWJD_Hunter 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to make yourself a corned beef sandwich....That and maybe a payday and a snickers bar and perhaps an almond joy and you will be prepared to kill a buck... At least that is what works for me....< GRIN>..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cory Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 Ready I’ll never fully be ready….lol…. I will definitely forget something. I always do. But I’m excited for sure. I haven’t had much time in the stand for bow season so due to work. When I have had time I’ve only seen bucks . No does. I’ve seen a whopper 10 pt that I’m hoping trots by around 645 Saturday morning. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Four Seasons Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Will be sitting in the Bowles of Letchworth waiting for the inevitable. They will show if they don’t get taken out on the way down. For the most part it’s business as usual once they get down there. It’s like they know nobody is down there….Well I hope to have a surprise for the biggest one. Because the biggest one would be the only thing I would wrestle out of that hell hole again. Good Luck to all. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eaglemountainman Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Pointing the truck north from Florida, early AM Wednesday. I'll spend 3-4 weeks at camp, up on the hill, with the best bunch of guys I've ever had the pleasure to know. Best of luck to all. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supposedly ! I won't be out but I remember a few years ago when you would hear many 5 shot sounds very early in the morning on opening day . Since rifles have been legal to use , you might hear a 2 shot sound . Seems like a lot less hunters out also . Happy Hunting and git 'r done ! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mlammerhirt Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Early weather models are not promising for WNY....the crap is supposed to start tomorrow night and we shall see where the ole lake effect takes us. This projection absolutely sucks if it's true. A few inches each day is fine....but some models are calling 3 foot which will lock everything down.Sent from my SM-A716V using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigpaul Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Looking forward to seeing friends at camp, always a good time! I'll be honest, every year I hate to see the archery/crossbow season come to a close. Good luck and enjoy yourselves! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
