No hunting for me today. Working 2nd shift this week so if I get any hunting done at all it will be morning hunts. But with all next week off and temps look to be dropping next week I think I'm gonna let all my stands rest and hit it hard next week. Let's see if I can resist the temptation to hunt lol

Went atv riding with some guys from work yesterday afternoon while the weather was real warm. Had a awesome time riding around the mountains. Drank a couple cold ones and enjoyed some delicious venison burgers for a late lunch by a remote pond. And I didn't bust anything up on my wheeler which makes the trip itself a success! Haha. Here's a couple pics I snapped during the day. Wish I could've got more but it's not easy to work the phone and keep up with the others lol

2 years in a row with a nice 8, right?


My rifle 8 was way bigger. But that was two years ago. My brother got a big 8 2013, me in 2014 and my buddy I had over in my brothers stand in 2015. Finally have some nice ones roaming around in 3H.

Trying to figure out if I want to go out in the morning for my first sit of the year .. I don't know if 70° is to warm to expect to see anything ?? What do you guys think 

Tomorrow should be fine. They are moving early. You'd be wise to set up between fields and thick cover or in a secluded oak grove that borders thick cover. If nothing else you could do some low impact scouting at mid day to check for scrapes/rubs. I'm finding new ones every time out. Good luck

      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!
