Buckmaster7600 Posted September 28, 2017 Author Share Posted September 28, 2017 I have no problem with it being sold I also don't really have a problem with people buying and using it. I just found it amusing how blatantly these guys are undoubtedly breaking the law. It reminded me of the teenager beside you at the red light smoking a joint, not hurting anyone but still blatantly breaking the law without much care.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I had land I would also build a blind with insulation, tv, heater, and a food plot, for the record. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
growalot Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 They are great!....buddy heater and a cot wake up to your phone alarm on your ear buds. Look out the window to snow fall. Enjoy the view while you wait for the alarm to buzz legal time...while your bundled in a sleeping bag and slippers in a cushy armed swivel office chair. After you switched out tanks on the heater..open your cooler for a bite to eat..and yes a thermos of warm ,n.ot hot but warm coffee..because you have your potty too. Listening to taped books. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pygmy Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 Growie....Do you have a CO detector ??? My buddy has recommended one, even tho my Buddy heater has a low o2 switch... Probably not a bad idea if you are going to be sleeping in the blind... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomad Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 Over all not a bad idea , but I'd think few blinds are built that tight . You'd need a couple hundred PPM for hours . But in that small an area , it's really a good move . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
growalot Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 (edited) I always keep a front and back window open for a draft...I also go in late and turn it off and close Windows once warm..It's funny how warm that cardboard keeps these blinds..t h e wooden blind is insulated with cardboard in the walls.

growalot Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 My double buddy heater is used at camp to heat it up while they await the wood burning stove to heat up...The guys love it..So Mr.B bought one for camp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolc123 Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 I do not know anyone who baits deer in NY state. If I did, I would call the DEC and report them. Lots of folks are "brave" enough to complain about it on "anonymous" internet forums, but lack the balls to do anything that might help eliminate the problem. I would not bait, even if it was legal, because most years I can grow corn cheaper than I can buy it. To me, that makes baiting deer in NY state both illegal and dumb. If I lived in Texas, or some other state that lacks water (most of the time) or fertile ground, then baiting would make a lot more sense. That may be part of the reason that it is legal in those places. As far as food plots being the same thing as bait, yes and no. Yes, they can achieve the same end results - attracting deer so you can kill them easier. No, because they are legal in NY state (and all other states as far as I know). Food plot corn is also more effective at holding deer on you ground in the daytime, than corn poured out of a bag, because it also comes with cover - the stalks. Just another reason why buying bagged corn to bait deer in NY state is dumb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chef Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 Now here is one for you.... in Sullivan county it is legal to feed wild life just not hunt over bait.... what about the guys that feed there all year and pull the bait the day before season..... me on the other hand I plant smallFood plots I'm sure my.l neighbors bait Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you ever hunted deep dense forest where your chance of seeing a deer are few and far between I think that's why a lot of people do it in the Adirondacks and yes some get caught and hefty fines. But some people hunt hard and never see deer that the difference in hunting northern tier and southern tier. Bigger tracts of woods less deer almost $100 for a license. Southern tier lots of farm land and that comes a lot of deer and dmps none for us up here. Apples work corn works carrots work alphalfa bales work hay molasses pumpkins hell in old forge my old boss had a pic of his kids feeding deer cookies lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corrected I was just saying the price of a super sportsman nothing about northern and southern zone. Just saying a lot of people spend the money on a license and don't kill deer. That's why they bait. I'm dumb when it comes to punctuating sentences my fault 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hock3y24 Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 My one neighbor told me he mixes corn, horse feed, molasses, maple syrup, bird feed and baits deer. Personally i think its funny because he said he never sees deer. Well despite your pile of bait the deer can still smell him awful. And all the deer seem to hang out a long ways away from his house across the road by my house, with no bait. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Four Season Whitetail's Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 Guess in another year some can write another post about guys using scent when Ny makes yet another stupid unfounded law. Its to the point now in this state that people are going to do what they think is best on their properties regardless of Nys stupid laws. To each their own and if it works for them then good for them. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
