Had a perfect 20 yard shot at a monster 10 when my alarm went off telling me legal hunting was over ,i was just about to apply pressure to the trigger of my release . Oh well ,rules are rules.

I hope you’re not serious, you can give your self till the end of the minuet I’d say as long as the clock said 6:40 or what ever it was where you are you are good

Saw a spike at 12 yards, nanny doe and buck fawn circled my stand for 10 minutes decided to pass on her because of the fawn, then 3 doe passed off in the distance at 50 yards as the sun was going down. Great opening day. Can’t wait for the bucks to get on their feet during light.

Hey man, it's me! grampy!

I thought that was you up there! I gave you a wave but maybe you didn't see me? Not much on the cam but a small buck and those doe you are watching. Just so ya know, my wife has names for them.

Give me a few more minutes, and I'll have this stand strapped in. Not as young as I used to be, and I'm afraid of Heights too!

Figured if I grunted and groaned enough, you'd come over and give me a hand?

Almost done. Then I'll head out to your truck, drop the tailgate and sip suds till ya come out! 

Just yell if ya need me buddy!!!

 

Ha! 

I was super surprised to see you leave after sitting in the stand for a bit, and come BACK AGAIN WITH camo on!

No phone or watch..... Not sure how I forgot that stuff, but I did.

No deer but the chipmunks made it interesting. 

 

Congrats to those who got a kill!

 

For the rest of us, we have a long season ahead. I'm not stressing over a bad opening day.

Rain tomorrow, so my next day will be Wednesday.

Seen a buck, not sure what it was because of brush it was in. Also seen a baby and momma 10 minutes later. Watched a coon eating berries off another bush for awhile.  Had a button buck under my stand for about half an hour tonight till about 645. Good first evening sit.

Congrats to those who killed today.

Ya I’ll be sitting out tomorrow as well if this forecast holds true. Especially now that I’m coming down with whatever cold sickness BS my wife and kids have. I can’t believe I saw any deer this afternoon with all the sniffling and sneezing I was doing. Might have to hit up the doctor tomorrow morning and get on the same amoxicillin my wife is on so I can kick this before it ruins any more hunting time.

Let’s go boys! Not much sleep after watching the Chiefs comeback victory last night, but looks like rain is coming early afternoon so hopefully a nice buck moves this morning.

56 degrees here in 3N. Light wind (2mph)

I had a close encounter with one of my target bucks yesterday morning. He's a 130+ 8 point. He came in quartering to me and stopped behind a tree to make a scrape. I drew in anticipation that he would follow the other 4 bucks that did the same and present a nice quartering away shot at 25 yards. Except he decided to turn away and only gave me an ass view as he wandered off. 

I hunted all day and saw plenty of deer, but he didn't come back. 

A buddy of mine shot a beautiful 130 class 10 point yesterday morning. Here’s a pic. DDD37C7D-4420-42A8-9E80-69BF271DE1F5.jpeg.e40a3a9b0562ca6f3846e431f60451d6.jpeg

      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.

      Just want to relay an experience I had this weekend regarding hunting regulations and other hunters.
      I've had several  hunter's tell me last weekend(10/12/2020) that muzzleloader was open, it is not. I also had two other hunters last weekend confront me as to why my son was carrying around a rifle and hunting deer. I calmly explained the youth weekend and the rules around it. After that everything was cool and we continued our hunt.
      I know at the end of the day we're all trying to participate in a sport we love and maybe harvest some game. My thought is to just make sure you're up on your local hunting regulations. Not just so you are within the rules, but also so you can assert your right to be where you are, hunting the way you're hunting.
      I know when I have been operating outside of the regulations I have appreciated a person respectfully correcting my ignorance and I try to pay it forward by being informed and respectfully educating when required.
      Thanks for listening, off my SB...

      Hello,
      I am in the process of purchasing my first rifle to go hunting deer for the first time.  However, I have received contradicting information regarding the types of rifles that are legal.  Based on what I have read, it appears that I am able to use a bolt-action rifle with a pistol grip and a detachable magazine which holds 10 rounds.  However, I have been told that this is not the case. I can't seem to find where this is stated.  Can any one here provide me with some insight into this? I'd really appreciate it.
      Thanks in Advanced,
      Alfredo
