Wrong hashtags. It’s #NoTreestands . It’s a environmental issues and I’m trying to protect the trees! How would you like to be choked out by multiple leather belts wrapped around your body?

I guess that depends on who is wrapping me in leather and choking me out.....

EDIT: I am going to have to start reading ahead before I respond

Just flew in from NC yesterday, just moved away 3 years ago. Past two years I come back for a week or so early November. This year  I’m here November 5th-20th enough to catch end of bow and first week of shotgun!!! Can’t wait to get into the woods shot the crossbow yesterday and will have first sit tomorrow in hemlock ny. Will be hunting mostly 8G Alabama swamps area though. Good luck to everyone! Hopefully the weather clears up alittle I’ll take snow over rain any day.

In the process of putting some molding up looking out and watching the rain and 30 mph winds. Out steps a huge half rack big bodied buck and a doe. Shortly after out steps two more bucks both spikes. The big buck stayed close to the doe and the two little ones kept their distance. They milled around a little bit and the proceeded to walk right by my stand. The three bucks went in one direction and the doe went in the opposite direction.

 The way the big half rack walked I would say he is pretty old. He just kind of plodded along and didn't show a lot of energy. First deer I have seen in my field in over a month.

Couldn't get a picture because they were about 325 yards away. Must be the rut is on here. Right on schedule.

Sounds like you got a honey hole! Gotta be over 100 deer seen for you this year?

Closer to 300, I’ve had 2 hunts without deer. Highest was 23 one day. Multiple locations but majority is at the honey hole. And I still haven’t hunted the spot i was seeing 15 or so a sit last year.

Cmon man. Not saying your wrong, just find 300 a bit high. How many of those are repeats ? If you had to guess, how many deer per acre do you have ?

If you see 6 deer on Saturday and say 8 deer on Sunday but two of the deer you saw on Sunday you are sure are the same doe and fawn you saw Saturday you say you saw 6 deer on Sunday? 

When he said 300 I was assuming he has seen 300 on total sits. I am sure some are the same deer.  I have seen probably 50 or 60 deer but it is probably the same 20 or so I have seen multiply times.

Enjoy your time and I hope you get a big one!

Oh I’m sure there’s many repeats, and idk those numbers all I know is I have doe groups of 5-8 on this property, 14 different bucks on camera before the rut. And see at least 10-20 deer on the last mile of my drive either standing in the road or in peoples yards. Usually im lucky to have 100-125 sightings a year but it’s literally been non stop all day on this property.

Can we count driving sightings? If so, I had a great Sunday. Saw 4 does on morning drive and 6 does and one buck chasing a doe on night drive home.

When my neighbor sold he gave me this blind. As I'm sitting in it I'm beginning to think it's a jinx for all this rain. Sure beats sitting in the house.

Im Not counting those, only deer from the stand or walking directly to stand. I should say these are sightings not deer cause 300 deer would be ridiculous.

      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
