I’m planning to.  How do you do it?  Last year my buddy buried his for a year and then dug it up.  It looks pretty good.  

I prefer to boil mine, then pressure wash them. id suggest watching some you tube videos. its fun as hell but your first one will be time consuming, use caution with the eyes and brain, i wear goggles and gloves. then get some salon 30 and power dye from the salon store to "bleach the skull". if you dye the antlers on accident a little wood stain fixes it.

I finally got out today for the first time this season. As I was approching my food plot I noticed a buck feeding in the plot. The wind was in my face so I belly crawled to about 35 yds.(I forgot my range finder) He busted me when I tried to draw my bow! Sat til dark didn't see any. 

This doesn't count but I got this one on my way home with my truck!

I never weighed a deer before field dressing until now, 230 lbs. on the hoof and 175 dressed! I'll measure the girth tomorrow before I cut it up just to make sure my scale is accurate!

That sucks I hate those kind of tags. Wish I still had the pic of mine he was my biggest New York buck to date and was worth $7200 in repair.

Not sure what route you wanna take but I have a buddy that does them with beetles and can mount them on a plaque. If you want let me know I'll get his number to you. He's just North of Binghamton. Here's a couple he's done for me.20181006_201012.thumb.jpg.85b116a6fb4db69a9c93778f5e031f53.jpg20181006_201030.thumb.jpg.55d7dfc334a1e016c6b3a14a96c3d00b.jpg20181006_200951.thumb.jpg.91916117ca71f818424fceed52c3436d.jpg

Nicely done.

Got my first bow buck tonight! Special thanks to The Real TC III for walking me thru the after shot routine! Kept me on the ground. Had a pretty easy 50 yard track and he expired 5 yards from the ATV trail.
Had to cancel my wifes birthday dinner reservations for tonight, but she was cool with it!
Tacks I did have pass thru, but did not find that arrow. I stopped looking for it when I found the deer!
My daughter took better pics which I will post up when I can.

      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
