If I don’t get a buck tomorrow in rain and wind, I’m banking on Phade’s Sunday Funday Buck prediction.

I can’t stop thinking about moving my stand, steelhead fishing and 2 McDonald’s sausage McMuffins.

 I think I made a mistake moving it from my usual spot.

Second guessing ones self, is a standard part of hunting!

I'd never second guess two McMuffins though!

My opinion, leave the stand where it is. You moved it there for good reason. Have faith! It will pay off!

I saw two young bucks this morning trotting all willy nilly across my fields this morning then a buck standing with a bedding doe out in an open hay field from the road. Things are moving in the right direction in my area. I'm hoping to get in my first hunt of the season Saturday, if not then Sunday. Can't wait!

Market penetration on cell cams is likely to be 1-2% or less right now. Long way to go toward major impact.

Wet springs have a direct correlation to larger antler growth. I forget where that data lies, but it's been proven in quite a few scholastic studies.

I can’t argue with that. A wet spring will definitely help with antler growth. That giant buck put on almost 60” of growth since last year. And maybe the market penetration is only 1-2%, but from my experience as well as others that I know that use cell cams, the opportunities to harvest a mature buck have definitely increased with their use

My guess would be every deer may react differently to a headless deer/or even a decoy with a head. As would one with antlers, one buck may want to fight it but no horns and one might want to breed it

Yes, the head is gone because a buck beat it a few years ago...I guess I’ll find another head for it and see what happens....and spray some doe in heat urine on its butt.  It’s great for a few warm up shots while I’m in the stand!

Nothing but pheasants cackling up in the field so far. Seems like there are still a lot of leaves on the trees for Nov 2? Prob because we haven’t had a real frost yet.

Fletch I mostly hunt N/S ridges, but at my lease it's a north face and I noticed all the maples were down by 10/16 green everywhere else I hunt...Sun exposure as well?

Had a flathead run in and stop in front of me. It was splashing so initially I thought something was coming across the water behind me. Everything is so wet and swampy it sounds like that out front too lol. I was hoping a buck was pushing her but I’m thinking pheasant hunters as I’ve heard some shooting up in the fields.
She eased off and every step was water and mud sucking. Nothing walking by this stand without me hearing it!

I don’t hunt much I’d consider bigger than a hill. Relatively flat stuff, no ridges.

Left my stand about 10:20... worked my way down the hill towards the truck. I get down near the road, about 70 yards away where I never see deer. I look to my left and there is a 6point standing 20ish yards away just staring at me. I stopped, grabbed an arrow, knocked it, pulled up,  drew and aimed, and in that instant that deer bound off. 

I was just happy to see something, this all happened about 10:30ish.

      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
