One of the only sectors of business that you'll ever face cut backs or lay offs! Our mill has been here I think 70 years now and never once had a lay off. We have numerous job bids open that we can't even fill. I call bologna when people say there's no good jobs out there...they just aren't looking hard enough or they don't want to actually work.

Just got up in my stand after making rounds of trail cams and doing a bit of scouting at the other farm. Sitting over a plot that sits between prime bedding and an oak bottom that's full of acorns. Already had 2 doe sneak through the thick stuff just downhill from me. I really need to get some shooting lanes cut down to that trail.

Trimmed up a new stand and made a spur of the moment decision to move a stand. The stand I moved was on a edge of a dried up swampy area. Decent movement around it, but it's close to my neighbors house. Decided to move it farther back into the swamp. I think it will be a good spot. A lot of trails and sign. Looks like the bear has been in there tearing up a dead tree too. I'm gonna hunt it this afternoon and see what happens.

Not hunting, put a new seat on this stand and moved it to what I think will be a great spot. Then patrolling the land for weekend warriors .

Wind looks good for me to hunt a new set, Tue afternoon then this one Wed AM.

Daughter and I about to suit up for afternoon /evening hunt. Temps dropping quick. If she doesn't tip one over today tomorrows weather looking good for an all day sit too. Looks like some success today by friends and forum. Hoping we see something 

9H 10mph NW wind and 48 degrees. Round 2 of Fireballs.

Swing and a miss for my friend.  I think he got a bit of fever since he isn't a bad shot and it was only 17-18yds.  But better clean miss than bad hit.  Still early so I like his chances.  He still seemed optimistic.  

Moved to my least favorite stand so as not to bother anyone's hunt.  Nice afternoon anyway.

      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!
