Thursday 11/26:

Hunted dark - 9am. Nice cold morning 26 degrees barely any wind.Saw a button buck at 730am. Too bad it wasn't a bigger buck would have been an easy shot. Saw him first at over 100yds and walked right by at 60yds in a valley and never saw me. I took a quick video on my iPhone here it is.

Friday 11/27:

Hunted 1pm - dark. At 4pm I blew the bleat call and 3min later I saw a deer. Turned out to be a doe that milled around for 10 full minutes at 75yds, easy shot if I wanted. Oh well no bucks. I'm done for the weekend. I'll be back at it next Saturday morning.

11/28- 12/4: no hunting

Thinking if the weather is decent of doing a 1 day trip on Saturday up to Ulster County (3A) to hunt for the day where my Dad got his 7pt.

[BizCT]

As of now, plan is to leave around 2:30am tomorrow to head up to Catskills (3A) and hunt tomorrow dark-dark where my Dad got his 7pt in Ulster County. Will be nice to be carrying a rifle while hunting in NY for a change. I think i'll bring my Weatherby 7MM Mag tomorrow.

Make sure you hit him in the rear end, or else there won't be anything left to cape out.

Good luck!

I've shot antelope and mule deer with this gun and had no issues with big holes. Right behind the shoulder.

Saturday 12/5:

Left at 230am. Went to Catskills, 3A in Ulster County where my dad got his buck. Hunted dark to dark and saw 0 deer, 1 grouse. Of course saw 15-20 deer within the first 1-2 miles leaving. Just got home, exhausted running on 2-3 hours of sleep. Oh well, I might be done for the year. Few pics from today. It was mid 20s in the mountains and low wind. Nice little snow covering.

Must have been one beautiful hunt! No deer movement in 3J and 3M either but I did hear a sharp increase in gunshots this morning. 

[bisceglia]

anyone have any experience with pochuck or monguap state forests, im looking to do a 1 day this weekend before rifle wraps up with hopes of bear or a buck.  with the warm weather not going anywhere id rather put some miles on the boots and not waste my time stuck in a tree for hours on end.  anyone have any info or any other ideas were i could go?

[BizCT]

I never heard of either of those places.

I give you credit for sitting dark to dark after the guns go off.  I could never do it at this time of the year, but have received cell cam photos making me wish I had.  lol

When you drive over two hours to get to a spot to hunt, I'm not going to walk over 2 miles round-trip just to sit in the car during lunch lol.

Makes sense. Hunting local has made me lazy I guess.

[bisceglia]

yea me too that's why I want to hit some public land this weekend to wrap up rifle, pochuck is in Warwick I think it's about 2000 acres and butts right up to a lot jersey state land

Even when I hunt local about 6 miles away, I just stay all day if I am going to hunt the morning and afternoon anyway. I'd be bored sitting home waiting a few hours just to get dressed and do it all again.

Yea they stunk my Dad said. They were about 50 yards from him, wind blowing from them to him. Both big does. You know that smell when you know a deer is nearby. It was like that but much worse he said.

Saturday 12/19: my dad and I hunted dark to dark in heavy winds but no deer seen. I'm done for the year. My dad may hunt Monday and/or Tuesday.

I checked the cams and as of early December a nice 6pt was still alive. I got pics of him in 2 different spots on 12/1. Then I believe he broke off part of 1 side of his rack because on 12/3 it appears it's snapped off after 5-6" of main beam. This is odd for this section of woods we hunt. We've been hunting this property since 1993 and never seen a busted up rack like this. Wonder if it was a fight or something else. Hopefully he's still alive and will be nicer next year.
