Tried to set my buddy up I got all the action...

Big buck ridge cruising at legal, 2 more doe sightings by 8:30...

Harnessed my inner biz got on my feet and did the boundary to scout and in hopes of pushing something to my boy, instead...

Lightly bumped a nice yearling...20 yard stand off for about 10 mins before I noticed the 3 other bedded doe.  

Lead doe gets up starts making her way to see what the yearling is light stomping/staring at.

lil doe finally turns her head a half second I draw but she is head on...the lead senses something and does one broadside bound into a 30yd lane...

She was super alert but I felt it was my best chance I released and just like the video she dropped and rolled away...just ducked it...

Saw about 15 turkeys and lots of buck sign as well.

my buddy seen zero...bummer but fun AM for me despite the miss.

Sons got a friends bday party so I'm pulling dad duty for that should be fun.

It’s hard, but I’d rather do this than bump it and not find it. I saw vultures and crows circling one point about 200 yards from the shot, but in the direction of the shot so I’m hoping that’s him bedded

Usually if vultures are circling the animal is dead. Congrats and hope for a speedy recovery.

I can imagine it will be a LONG 5 or 6 hours for you.  There is no way I'd have the patience to wait that long to start following up on the deer let alone wait for the deer search dogs.

Then you probably would not recover...guts is a toughy

Stay the course AT

I knew today would work.

 

Nothing until 8:10 when this doe walks by then off. 10 min later a nice buck cruising at 100 yards but despite a doe and buck call stopping him a few times he had his eye on something else. This came by again and 30 yards and she ran 50 at the most and down within sight. Rage hypodermic from centerpoint 370.

 

I SUCK at identifying doe size. Really thought this was a good size doe. Isn’t, but my guy can probably get 25 lbs off her anyway.

 

Also realized I am a degenerate hunter. I told my wife next deer and my season is done. And yet I am posting this from my stand again 8-)ac2c76a38b7cac0d8f30a52321ae3bda.jpg&key=6a2db46527bd7aca17161e6c080b91ca0d0d68ef2f546dea657d67af65584706

Back out on public land on the ground in 3g. Overlooking a set of benches with trails running through them and fresh sign at about 1000 feet. 51° and light swirling wind. Probably a deerless sit, but won't have the agony of watching the Giants.

Good luck to all out there. bc5b4bf25105527e54a989e7bf7cbb9a.jpg

      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
