Going to check cams so just grabbed a slate call, turkey thumper and maybe strike up a conversation with a Tom.  Only 2nd attempt ever at fall bird hunting. 1 for 1 so we'll see. Heard gobbles during youth hunt and many pics on cams. Ironic I've got a bird on the smoker right now. Pretty windy so not expecting much.

Well alarm went off at 4:30 a.m.. I turned it off and went right back to sleep until Mr B said huhum...the coffee is done...OK got up not time to shower for he needed to get to work...Ironed some of his work clothes and at 5:38 thought...I got time...slipped on blk. work out tights,thin blk. turtleneck, blk balaclava and gloves out I went...went to the garden blind and spooked something large just one snort...then at day light had a yound doe come in, but I am turkey hunting and hadn't eaten anything...grabbed a clementine before leaving the house and had just finished it...Well the darn thing had an over whelming smell and she caught it...spooked her up a bit so she never passed in front of me. heard a close by grunt...saw nothing else...checked the last woodland WR plots ..came in great...grabbed cards...

The plots were loaded pretty much from 5:40 pm until 1:48 a.m. all big doe, fawns and one small buck. Now here is the doe I want to see during shooting hours in weather where...I'm not hunting in ..basically thin long johns...lol^_^:

Ok. Checking cams and taking walk. Winds in my favor and leaves on ground makes for really quiet stalk. Could have arrowed 2 does 2 minutes ago and just now a basket 6 and little 8. All bedded in hardwoods 50-100 yards from top of mountain and field edge. 2 different groups about 150 yards apart.

      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!
