54 here, mostly going to look for the watch I lost night. Pulled out my old metal detector I've had since the '70's still works! Had batteries in it from years ago when a guy used it to find his knife ,the batteries had not leaked which was amazing .

Back in and soaked...seriously sick of this weather too hot...windy rainy..really isn't there a middle ground in there some where? Rant done...was not suppose to rain drizzle turned to down pour..of course in now..it stopped...

So kicked up two bedded fawn.... blew a soft grunt and got just a half hearted snort...get settled in and I see shadows 60 yrds infront of me. Watching when I feel something to my  left side..yep a huge doe and triplets come into where I kicked up fawns..fawns are running and chasing winds swirling and moms on alert...they are about 40 yrds out..look back to my right and spot a hind leg behind a pine 43 yrds out...yep the big 8 is still around :yes: ...he walks broad side ..but nope I'm just not comfortable with that distance...cross bow.... may have thought about it... any whoo I grunted and he didn't even think about it ,,,did a semi circle behind me and disappeared over the ridge....rain starts and I get down  and head out to the back line. Kick up a spike right under a stand  he stops and so do I ..finally he just trots off headed in the direction I am, tail flying high...just as I get to stand I think about using sky's open up...grabbed cam card...now I know where they all are...finally...this is cam with the am/pm reversed,  times right...don't ask I just can't change it...

      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!
