Hunting partner text me an hour ago, said he saw a big buck trailing a doe, three hundred yards from where I'm set up. Said they were heading my direction. So far, nuttin. Gonna stay till the end of legal light. I know this is a proven, great rut spot! Thick nasties, bordering a doe bedding area. Wind is perfect and steady. Fingers crossed. I'm in the right spot. Just need a little luck today!

A protective jacket, pfd or both?

I guess it’s a little of both. It’s neopreone Holds his body heat in. Normally I was told by others they don’t put them on their dogs till November but him being a pup still I wanted him to get use to it. Anyway pulled the plug. Had to throw him some bumpers so he wouldn’t leave me for another group of SUCCESSFUL hunters

I've gotten permission from the nice old lady who lives adjacent to the property.

Prolly help her with her overgrown yard this summer, she was really nice.

Dog tracker sent me a couple nifty pics/chart

For reference I believe I entered a fairly broadside 9-E

2pm cannot come soon enough

It was dead this morning in the rain. It stopped raining at 10::00. Saw a 7pt at 9:40, a spike at 9:55, then a 6pt and 8pt walked by together at 11:00. I tried grunting to them to get them close for pics, but they paid no attention! Not sure if I'll stick it out until 1:00 or leave and come back later.

Heading out for the 4th sit. Have yet to see a deer in range. 43 and a steady cold mist/drizzle in 8g with minimal wind. I'm going to hang an estrus drip and see what happens.

Good luck on that recovery Paul. I hope you get him.

We’re you in a tree? How high? What broadheads? If I shot a deer in 9e 20 feet up at 15 yards I’d be concerned with 1 lung and missing liver.

15 ft up max fairly level shot the arrow stuck in the ground 4" but on a low angle so that the nock is maybe 6" off the ground.

Nearly positive hit the liver...no mistaking the smell,  I'm banking on that fur the dog, it's the reason I called them...

Fixed 2 blade 125 grain 75 grain insert

Never can be 100% till you cut em open but I'm pretty sure...dark blood etc

The way this season has gone for me I'm expecting trouble, but the situation feels pretty good.

Thanks in advance!

Left the stand at 1:00. At 1:15 I had to lock the breaks up on the truck to avoid hitting a big ass lone doe that blew across the road in front of me! Think I could have counted the hairs on her chin she was so close!

Hard to say but so far you should kill a deer today after all your encounters so far

      Broome county / Deposit ny
      By Francesco B
      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.

      What are the best steps carry a bow on your back?
      By Ainsley Ash
      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.

      A Hunter's Obligation to Know the Rules
      By JDN2K
      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...

      Bolt Action with Pistol Grip
      By Alfredo
      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
