All depends on wind and variables. Whitetails are no different

There’s no terrain whatsoever it’s a mature buck laying in the middle of a groomed lawn

I can not remember a wetter season either. 

Will actually need hip boots to reach some spots this weekend!

It’s all seasons. So far this could be the toughest early duck season. Water everywhere. A duck just has to find a low spot in a field and they got new food source. Birds spread out all over makes it very hard

Saw a basket rack 4 stroll by at 20 yards, rub his head n eye glands on a branch. Thought he was a 4 let him walk , get glass on him he's a basket 7. A/R saved his life. No shot when I glassed him , he also peed on his tarsal glands before he walked into the brush. Looks like it's starting up. Gonna make a mock scrape with a lil tinks right in my shooting lane.

Well my heart was pounding tonight! Had my target buck come out into the field directly across from me. He turned and walked the field edge, stopping to make a scrape. He continued to walk the field edge and only got to 85 yards before catching wind of a doe that had just walked out of the field about 10 mins earlier. He must of seen her standing just off the cut field in the brushy stuff and followed her down to the creek bottom. I grunted at him multiple times trying to get his attention but he could care less once he had that doe near him. My heart was pounding away though so it was a good time! Looks like things are starting to heat up!

Coues deer are even smarter than whitetails. They are killed from the ground all the time.

 

I think you’re confusing dumb with pressured. You can go to anticosta island or however you spell it and spot & stalk whitetail buck all day. You can shoot giant whitetails over bait in many parts of Canada and US. Nobody is shooting mule deer booners over bait.

I need to get the pic off my phone, but, I had to drop someone off at a certain college in the Amherst region this afternoon. As I was heading back to the car park I spotted a Buck with about 5 or 6 doe in a front yard. Just hanging out. I walked over and took a pic. He was still in velvet!  Anyone seen this before? Do tame Bucks hold onto their velvet longer?

What is the best whitetail you have killed?  How about muley?  Just curious.   You live in NY and hunt here every year   

Not sure why you are so impressed with hunting out west.  It’s just a different style based in large part on terrain and species hunted.   Lobbing it in from 65 or getting close enough to shoot at 10.  Which takes more skill.  Glassing and spot and stalk or hunting areas so thick you can’t see 20yds but have to predict movement, which takes more skill.  Answer is both but different skills.

could be an injury involving hormone production or I've even heard does that have hormone imbalances can grow antlers and they typically do not shed their velvet when it is a doe.

I'm always talking fair chase.

Whitetails are super-cagey and IMO the 2 hardest places to hunt them are big woods and suburbs.

They are so good at avoiding humans that in large tracts it's nearly impossible to beat them (ask Maine hunters).

In the suburbs they know exactly whose shrubs they can eat at night and who's got apples and table scraps out back.

In ag country they are more predictable but still you don't see 10 whitetail bucks bedded within 50 yds of each other.

Im not trying to pile on but I do think North Eastern Whitetails are the best game animal in NA.

I’m not a biologist but I think it’s way too late for bucks to still have velvet . I’ve have a buddy that actually shot what he thought was a buck in late November rocking velvet but it was actually a doe . I’m going to say you seen a doe with head gear.

People say old does are just as smart as mature bucks. I had an old one under 10yds just the other day.

      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
