I only hunted the first 2 days of the season. I'm hoping I can get out closer to home and possibly take a doe soon. Won't get back to my property until Halloween for a few days. Hoping I don't miss the Rut!

That being said. I'm twitching to get out there. Hope I see some more pics on here today.

Yes sorta thinking that now.  Ugh 

Trust me it was no mistake, as happy as I am about getting that 7 yesterday I’m kinda sad the rut will be on and I’ll only have a dmp in my pocket. It’s the hunt we truly enjoy not the kill and you’re still out there

Back to car. Things to do. Pulled cam card. Thought I saw 8 but looking like 7 now. Happened fast Sorta big body on him. What’s the giant mass in front ? Maybe should have zipped him. I don’t know lol dabcbcbf35a4b06e4fba4d2637a84009.png&key=f278804074a1a69eb58b31985dd4b4bf563db75cbfc9b63fca64f455fe019f231af98fd4922bd58bab724942272903d3.png&key=a1cde489b4163ba3c993dc6bfed2f99faa432acab9fdfe335ad68596d46fead7

Big body and that mass is weird. But I don’t think you’ll regret passing that as your first with the bow. It’s all about the hunt/adrenaline rush you got today.

Loving that your having a hell of a time out there.  Lol.   Looks like the same buck I passed on last year.  They could be twins.  Only one that can say whether you shoulda or not is you.  Big body on that boy for sure.

He is one FAT deer!! Rack looks spindly in comparison. The growth probably a tumor or fatty mass.
 
That's a lot of steaks!!

Yeah it’s a lot of steaks that I don’t know if I could eat without thinking of the single booby sticking out of its chest. Yucky! Could call to pass!

Huge body tiny antlers. Just a big ole fat bastard. I'd have shot but I also am able to use two buck tags by me so there is that

Jay I know it’s early but you’re crazy!!!! Hard to age him with the girth but I would bet money he’s 3 or 4 yrs old! Not many can say they’re first bow buck was a mature one and he’s definitely mature.

That's a really hard pass with your first bow buck. If I were you, I would have zipped an arrow through him. With bowhunting, I think getting a few kills under your belt becomes important for shot mechanics and "going through the shot process." I've seen people hold out and have issues connecting because the pressure builds up due to the few instances to let an arrow loose.

Good for you sticking to your goals, but I'd have shot. Then shot again. And again, if I were you.

      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
