Saw a nice size yote at 50 yards, was hoping he would come a lil closer. Drew back on him but a lil too far, damn!

Just a Yote, nothing to lose. Should have tried to lob one in!

Your right I probably should have I was hoping for a shot that never presented itself.

I'm thinking wounding any animal, even a coyote, is not in my plans. If I shoot at anything it is not a wing and a prayer. On top of that one of my arrows with broad head is 20 bucks.

Man I had the BEST time this morning and learned more about turkey behavior than I think I've learned in 40 years!...So I had company from sunrise...doe and twins in picture came out under the apple trees stand across from where I was sitting. Then walked up to the goat barn and turnips then into the beans /hemp. Meanwhile I was frozen because the turkeys had landed and they were purring and clucking, the Toms gobbling behind me...Our road was non stop traffic and the twit that honked the other day is now honking each time they drive by the  pumpkin plot. Don't know if it's...I've almost or hit one or I don't like hunters...Oh well, didn't seem to bother the deer in the tall hemp hiding out...They left without coming my way..wouldn't have shot she's still nursing. The turkeys then came in and until 8:30  am they put on quite the show. I now know how much my cams miss...there were 17 birds in this group shown the day before. The big Toms never made a showing but the jakes were a mean nasty bunch and there were several different posturing/circling tiffs happening. Oh man....the new sounds they let me hear,it was wild.. Then behind the Mulberry tree a fight broke out.Pic one...next thing I know the hens are scurrying into the woods and the Jakes are running for the fight. 8 birds stayed...Then it got fun, the two birds were going at it and the others huddled around them so neither could brake away. Then the bigger of those 2 grabbed...well..... if turkeys had ears I'd have go with that...hahaha...the side of the others head. Now all 8  in that tight group went around and around that clover plot as the smaller bird was dragged by his head...I got dizzy from holding my mouth trying not to laugh out loud...They were all making this sound ...ALL of them, as this went on for 10 mins or so. My best description is wiggle,wiggle,wiggle,wiggle.wiggle...hahahaha So 8 birds doing this in unison...Then they took turns beating on this poor bird until he laid down. In the meantime a few of the others were having tiffs within the group but none broke the moving bundle of birds...well  it ended with them continuing into the woods and on their merry way...still a ball of heads and feathers...Here's just a couple of shots that cams picked up...

That is a perfect example of " There but for the grace of God go I. " Why would people want to stop and snap a picture of another human in such dire straits...rhetorical question....

I saw the Jordan symbol on the bottom and wondered how much they were worth. Seems like a few of my students are into Jordans and they have shown me shoes that they want. I could buy a brand new rifle and descent glass for the price of those things.

      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!
