Been reading since bow season. First time posting. Its been real quiet Herr in 9J/9R deer aren't moving unless being kicked up. Its the worst opening weekend I've had in a long time. Hunted all day opening day only saw 6 doe with no shots and today have only seen 1 small 4 pt.

My dad shot this Buck at 7:30 yesterday morning. I was in the stand with him and may I say this monster looked five times bigger but we were still amazed by the size of this deer. To our surprise 15 minutes later five doe walked forty yards away from us. Since my dad already shot it was my turn to shoot. I dropped the doe in its tracks

It was directly behind him and he didn't want me putting the gun close to his face. In order for me to get the shot I would to turn around completely and shoot in his general direction

Saw 9 deer today. Most were single does with no bucks but one doe was being dogged pretty heavily by a half racked 8 point. I also had a spike push a few does but looked like he was really just having some fun and not really serious. Looks like the does should be ready in my area in the next few days...too bad I have class.

really wet snow here....yesterday I saw fox...and 6 fawns...one may have been a doe and fawn but pretty sure a large button...Then on way out I walked perimiter for foot tracks...it was  was pretty dark out at 5:01. I see head lights skirting the neighbors cut corn feild...then a spot light...I wear orange and stood in the hedge row watching them spotting and coming my way...then the spot crossed me...truck made an ubrupt turn and drove to the road and left...by now they must think I'm psychic...I'm always messing up after hour plans...lol..... but they have evolved, from running away with flash lights to driving away :rolleyes:

 

ps best morning to see any thing moving...wet snow here...but not a single shot....

      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!
