Took a slow meander thru the dark swampy pines. Saw a big body silhouette and it didn't see me. There's no way you can shoot in there. No windows of opportunity. Found a nice rub exiting swamp. And a few wee ones on the apple cam. Pretty sure I passed on the first one last week as chip shot. He was with a spiker. Guys are pushing and hammering other hill. And for today " that's all she wrote folks " 2fd505915aa7c081783bc94b2811ad88.jpg952476815bf9ca595bc1c8a1492b8d0d.jpg502b4fb969e262890533591ac7363c98.jpgbc5dee2b3d9fc406b05e534217628492.jpg

Those green edamame things taste horrible. I have tried them boiled, steamed, and fried in bacon grease with salt and pepper and they still taste like crap. I would rather sit and eat a can of dog food than those things.

Ok I'm back from a warm up walk on a diff property and in a fresh stand. I was overwhelmed with the smell of a buck while on the ground. Now that I'm up here not so much. 

Anyways this is the third appointment I've set with this buck I have on cam. Kinda rude he failed to show up for the first two but I figured I'd give him another chance.

you are hunting new land...   it takes time to learn the land and learn the movement..

One of the biggest things I have learned on my property over 10 years is that where they are and where they move in September is not where they are and where they move in November/December

I'm fine with my season. 6 totals days hunted.

3 bucks seen (1 killed and 1 was biggest buck in NY I've seen while hunting)

3 does seen

1 unknown deer

This wind/weather has sucked. Rather watch Chiefs on Sundays.

Only had stew in crockpot so far which came out great. Still have about 59lbs of meat left lol. Probably have backstraps Sunday.

Got out of the wind. Just got into my blind for first time since 11/5 when I killed xbow buck. Been getting pics of a red fox, maybe it'll come thru before dark. Phone about to die.

So the area I can smell buck from is bushy brush that transition to a small stand of pine. Just a little bit ago a doe ran from behind me along the side and into the pines followed by a small buck. No shot op and not sure what the buck was cause they were cruzin. 

When the wind is strong I smell nothing. When it dies down I smell buck. Not sure exactly waney to do here.  Still over an hour to dark.

      Gun Hunt in 3G, 3F, 3N Help
      By Raul2145
      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!

      Broome county / Deposit ny
      By Francesco B
      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.

      What are the best steps carry a bow on your back?
      By Ainsley Ash
      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.

      Any good spots within an hour of New Paltz?
      By Toth9050
      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

      Rocky Point
      By Raul2145
      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!
