wolc123 Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 (edited) Welcome to the forum. You are wandering in the right direction for sure. There is no place on earth that I would rather hunt deer than NY's Adirondack mountains. I have been around a bit, and the scenery up there is second to none. It is hard to put into words what that adds to the deer hunting experienced. "Best in world" scenery, combined with minimal hunting pressure, is a tough combination to replicate. One drawback is that it is addicting and can cause the hunting in other areas to loose some of it's luster. Another, if you are hunting the more remote areas, might be the flavor of the venison. They say the "bark-eaters" are not so tasty. The four that I have taken from the edges of the 6.5 million acre Adirondack park, near agricultural areas, were just as good as those from the corn fields of home however.

nobody Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Welcome to the club and N.Y.S. has great hunting to offer to up in the Adirondack and also Southern Tier N.Y.. Be conscious of the fact that the Adirondack,s heavy wood,s area,s in the East section that people have gone in and never come out. Search rescue parties were establishes and did a great job looking for many lost people. Some were found and some were not found. and so I would not carry a caliber under 30-06 or handgun under 45acp..Get you pistol permit filed and carry a minimum of a 45acp.or 45 long colt. for added safety and never hunt alone . Always have a buddy on watch not to far from you. And hunt with a friend that knows the area your hunting in very well . The local,s have a idea who or whats causing these missing hunters or hikers but it,s being kept hush up Anyhow I wish you the best in the woods hunting and hope you enjoy New York. Later, Froggy.

Pygmy Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 Hmmmmm...I suspect that perhaps they are being kept as love slaves by a perverted tribe of lesbian Huron Amazon Indians... Since they slaughter all of their male children at birth, they need to kidnap poor unsuspecting male hunters for breeding stock, or face extinction... 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salmon_Run Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 There are a few of us that hunt Hamilton County, big deer few and far between. Hard to pattern in any time of the season and rough land to navigate. Where about do you wander ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mountain Hunter Posted September 13, 2018 Author Share Posted September 13, 2018 Either Pharaoh Lake Wilderness or Hoffman Notch Wilderness. I bought my tags already and plan on going for early Muzzleloader. I believe Pharaoh is located in 5G, which means I should be able to shoot a buck or a doe.
