I saw a doe and two fawns. Once the doe got downwind of me she got pretty worked up. I had no shot at her,but she almost walked back into one of my shooting lanes to try to figure out where I was. She never quite made me,that's good. Will rest that stand fir a while though.

I lost a..............broads head and insert...missed a big doe...In old faithful and  at 6:15 a dark old doe appears all by herself...I draw when she's under some leaf cover around 17 yrds out.she stops...waiting..... she stomps..waiting..... then slowly ,tentatively steps out. I shoot but man it's loud. I have a pretty quiet bow so I'm surprised. Well I watched the arrow barely slide over her back just behind her shoulder. It looked like some unseen hand shoved her entire body toward the ground. The arrow hit just the other side of her with a hollow sound, not a crack as if hitting stone...off the doe goes...Close was at 6:45 so K get down and go to retrieve the arrow which was barely in the ground.  No broads head and no insert! Now you have to know  I carry 4 arrows they are hunting only arrows that I check carefully before putting in quiver. Make sure everything is tight,no cracks and knocks are good on string....Orang near dug out a 1x1ft creator looking for my little pink G4 ,to no avail. I check shaft carefully no cracks/ splinters everything looks and sounds fine,tap test...WTH....where did that G4 go?

I had pretty much the same evening as BowmanMike, and my name is Mike too.  

 

All in all, 7 deer tonight which is actually a bery good day in the area, so I am very happy.  No does allowed in my zone, so anything with 3 points on one side is harvestable.  So no shots attempted.  Second ever bow season for me, just waiting on that buck.

Passed on a doe, she walked right to my buddy's stand and he put a heart shot on her, she died 30 yards from my stand, 3 days and 3 does down for the 2 of us. Time to wait on some bucks. Very impressed with the nap sling blade broadhead performance.

      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!
