Live From The Woods 2017 edition!

Live from my kitchen and wondering why is it that 1C/Suffolk has the longest Deer season?Is it because everyone has pushed the deer from uptsate to the Island or is there more deer per area.I think we all should do 1 more super push/drive and drive the deer back up state

Just messin'' with ya Biz.  30 sit is a pretty good pile of sits.  I'm impressed you gave the vertical bow a shot.  I absolutely love bow season, at least when it's not 70 degrees.  

By the way, do you use the Xbow or Weatherby on parrots?

Why not have archery season open for the same time period In the entire state of NY

Sat in the car, drove to spot, sat on log, got up, sat on rock, moved and sat in blind, slow walk then sat on a stump and ate lunch, got up and walked around, found another nice log and sat, got bored and sat in car, got out and sat on trunk, walked back in woods and sat Indian style, got cramped and sat in an old wooden stand, saw a deer and stalked it, bumped it then decided to sit in a pile of leaves, found a tick sitting on your arm and got nervous, moved back to blind and sat for a couple hours, on walk out got tired and sat back on the big rock for a bit... Got back in the car and drove home..... Did that twice... For a total of 30 sits.

Sorry biz, I had to !

I get a little loopy once season is over !

I instantly regret not writing every hunt down.... My dad does a journal but it's an off and on thing. I'd love to pass that on to future generations. Dad's/papas/great gramps hunting log. Good stuff

It's because a good portion of the island probably has the highest deer densities in the state. It is also a highly populated area as far as people. For a long time with a 500' setback, that equated to many sanctuaries where deer could not be hunted legally. We also have a very limited gun season in January that you need all kinds of permits for. For years we have had a deer population that has continued to grow. It has grown so much that there are now deer as far west as Nassau county all the way to the queens border. We still can't hunt in Nassau county, so the population will continue to grow. DEC needs to bring back the earn a buck tags where if you shoot a doe, you could earn a buck tag. Better yet make it that you have to shoot 2 does. That's the only hope in trying to keep the population in check.

im feeling squirrely today.

Had to drop off some gifts for a buddy out on eastern Long Island so I packed my bow. It’s been a few year but what the hell I have nothing else going on today.

Surprisingly a good Amount of parking spots taken today. Guess I'm not the only that has a holiday today. 

Bumped one on the way in. Still amazed how close they stay to the main trails sometimes. 

Trying to circle back behind it.

I was close to the antler and wanted the back ground in it. Took it with my phone so I was suprised I got such a detailed pic.

what birds of prey do people hunt?  Curious. 

Crows?

for picture taking like crumedgon does. My point is that you can't bait deer even for picture taking in NY.
