Shot him in his bed at 7:15 found him at 8:15 had to finish him off. 17.5" wide haven't weighed him yet but I'm guessing 185lbs.

Started dragging at 8:30 just now made it out to road at 4:55, absolutely the most brutal drag of my life! Can't wait to get him hung and see what he weighs and start drinking beers!

Went back out this afternoon & didn't see squat until after shooting hrs. Getting ready to climb down (@4:52)  and a fawn and mother walk in and hung around until way after dark. Didn't want to spook them so waited til they left. Pretty tuff season again this year. Sat 28 times. 54 hrs. sitting in a stand... countless hrs. and miles scouting and not one shot. It is what it is and I would not trade the opportunity  to be out there for anything. Saw a total of 42 deer. 7 Bucks and 35 does in the 28 sits.

There have been some pretty nice bucks harvested/posted and a bunch of does to. Just want to congratulate all of those that had a successful season and wish you all a safe & successful gun season.

I don't ever expect to much during gun season. In fact if I was forced to make a choice between gun & bow it would be bow. That being said I will be out there tomorrow and then plan on taking a break for a couple of days. I am not going to put in the 19 days/77 hrs. I did last year and not even see a deer.

                                                  GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL AN STAY SAFE!!!

      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!
