DCOUTDOORS · December 4, 2015

we had good success at our camp in central NY;S Otsego county. opening day john started off the day with taking a nice big doe at 200 yds. mariano had 2 does come up behind his stand at 20 yds. he tried moving for a shot when they picked him off and ran off. then he sees an 8 pointer later that morning 75 yds down. he tries to get into position for a shot and he gets picked off and that buck vacates the area. then we had andrey a 1st time hunter miss an 8 pointer at 50 yds.he later filled his doe tag at 40 yds. mauro another 1st time hunter saw a 10 pointer trot past his stand at 25 yds. he didnt feel comfortable taking a moving shot so he let it pass with a gaping open mouth and wide open eyes! lol later that afternoon he tagged his 1st doe at 50 yds with his henry 357 lever action.mike nailed a nice doe at 50 yds.my dad saw 4 deer run below his stand with no shot. day 2 19 yr old brian got his 1st doe ever at 25 yds. john spotted a bear cross the feild at 200 yds he wouldnt stop for a shot. day 3 mauro saw a bear run up the hill 50 yds from his stand but again doesnt feel comfortable taking a moving shot. mariano sees a hugh 10 pointer across a feild from his stand 75 yds away he quickly put the crosshars on the deer and fired. he missed due to a bad case of buck fever! i searched for signs of a hit for over an hour nothing. an hour later he sees what he thinks is a doe out at 150 yds. he makes a perfect heart shot on what turned out to be a 3pointer. a few minutes later john on his stand sees a nice buck sneaking his way in the woods at 80 yds. he grunts to stop the buck and makes a perfect heart / lung shot. he only went 5 yds and dropped.day 4 alot of guys went home or took the day off from hunting so we let the woods rest. day 5 smitty filled his doe tag at 30 yds.

good hunting!
