What device are you using and how/when do you use it? I bought a FLIR Scout II 240 Thermal Imager last year, and try to use it in the 30 minutes before sunrise to see if there is anything out there. Haven't had any success with it. Maybe the terrain I scan is too thick with brush vs. open fields or mature woods.

Mine is a Pulsar HD 38 A. I made the purchase for night hunting but have also found it handy for checking hunting areas on the way in and out in the dark. It is amazing the number of deer you walk by and would never know they were there. I only use it on occasion during deer season.

In real thick terrain you cant see much but the heat signature will still show up. One good example is squirrels. I used it once and thought there were only 4 or 5 and when I looked through the thermal they were all over the place.

six flatheads at sunset about 195 yards. I reall couldnt get a bead on a big one because the soy beans are still in the field kind of difficult to single one out . they wer clumped together in two groups. I should hav skipped the ground blind and went for the ladder stand. Isnt that how it is more so than  not.

I’m bringing my own juju tomorrow! The stars aligned, the calendars cooperated, the boy is jacked up for a few hunts tomorrow and maybe Sunday am if the weather cooperates (yeah right!)!!! Honestly I may not sleep tonight- alarms set for 3:30 for 1 of my twins to come with me to my buddy’s Columbia county property.

While I killed the best deer for me ever this season in bow, I must say this season has not been “my best” I just haven’t hunted as much or as hard as I would like. BUT tomorrow my son is coming along for the first time this year and I am stoked(god I hate that term but it works for how I’m feeling!).

Still...all good vibes go to Bionic, with a side of Biz. Let’s have some fun and make some memories tomorrow!

To the trapper who's red fox I just shot thinking it was responding to my call, well-done and your catch will be waiting there for you stiff in the morning.
Consider yourself lucky that I brought two rifles tonight and decided to use the .22mag on that particular stand. The . 243 isn't so fur friendly on fox!
I almost forgot how much I love hearing the .22mag whack a fox!

      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
