My gf just hit her nose with the scope shooting targets with her new gun! We got her cleaned up.... I offered to stay home with her but she made me go back to my stand! What a good woman.

 

That sucks. The getting hit in the nose part.. Now tell us the truth. you poked her when she said you had had to stay home and skip night watch.....lol

Went to a stand I don't hunt much during gun ..until late in the season....saw turkey and then as the sun dipped under the ridge I looked at my phone 4:38 closing...looked to my rt and there on the neighbors and my line were two big doe.......  open shot 60 yrds....they had been watching the sun too...well that neighbor put out an offer that I could shoot across the line on them but I declined...first they do not hunt nor allow others to hunt doe and by the time they crossed over onto me it was 4:43 ...so I watched them walk by broad side at 42 yrds through my woods...then on way home...isn't there a deer standing right under another stand....and I followed a button buck out to the road...dang windy and cold!

 But today I saw deer and all possible shots...though only one in legal hours and still lots of turkey around....a great day hunting...

Guys at camp had a shot on a doe miss and our son is hunting the biggest buck ever seen at camp...but 2 college kids doing survey home work interupted him....back at it in the morning

He had asked me last week if I could use another deer, to which I replied yes. He already donated one to the state and told him I would have taken that one too. I don't quite get it myself. But I do know plenty of people locally that would love to have some venison. I may acually give it to a friend anyway. I still have 2 tags left.

That's fair. Had a neighbor shoot a doe once and we all have a recovery agreement. She died like 20' from my stand I'm like 30' up there so I watch them a minute before I announce I'm there. The guy seemed to feel guilty for some reason and asked if I wanted it. I politely declined but in my head I'm thinking "wtf did you shoot her for if you didn't want the meat?"

Or lets try this....

He felt bad that he may have messed up your hunt and was being sporting about it .

or

He was clearly on your land and seeing you "waited a minute" before announcing your presence ...being made to feel uncomfortable he was trying to be polite in offering you the deer...

 

but alas different mind sets I suppose..

back at it again in northern 3s calm winds mild temps 35 for now let's hope today is the day fresh tracks all over, I was driving home from lake george this weekend visiting my family and on the way home I wanted to stop and switch memory card in my camera, walk up to my stand to see my climber thrown to the ground and some Ahole in my tree on my land, I went ballistic on this guy, typical this is my buddies land and I have permission to hunt here, I showed him clearly were my property ends and told him I catch you or your buddies on this land again we're going to have some serious problems, no one is allowed to hunt and he magically didn't see the posted signs, after how crazy I went I doubt he'll be back, but who does that my climber was sitting on the tree Wouldn't you think to maybe go somewhere else to avoid possibly confrontation. I don't get it but I'm glad I caught him and fixed this problem now rather than next season.

take photos w/ gps on

Include his back tag, and always ask to de chamber the gun/empty the bullets when escorting them off.

      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!
