Ahhhhhh! Last chance doe from the shooting hut at 45 yards and I missed. First miss since rifle became legal here. I figure it must have been ( insert every excuse ever used here) so it couldn’t have been my fault. Tracked it for a half mile and no sign of a hit. Gave up when the tracks went right thru my back yard...

time to get the muzzleloader ready to bark.

Well saw 5 doe.  Most of them at 200plus yards and one at 70 or so with no lane to shoot.  Fun time with the kiddo.   
Bro ! 6.8!!??! Make your own lane by pressing the long thing we call, the trigger repeatedly till you punch one through. Thought I taught you better

Cmon man. Knife , butt out tool , zip tie , surgical gloves   Done.  8 minutes with a smoke break and ipa   Don’t need anything bigger than the small blade on a Swiss Army knife. No gut hook special knife required. Don’t make it more difficult than it needs to be.

Gut kit? What is in the kit? My kit consists of a knife. 

You and me both, I ain’t got room in my pack for all the crap some of these guys carry. Have no idea what a “butt out” is but I’ve gutted a 100 or so deer without it so I guess I don’t need it. Knife that don’t puncture guts? Thought that was what your fingers were for?

Racking in another bullet in my ruger American this morning and had the bolt come all the way out. Is this a design flaw where maybe I nudged it or something else?

All I can say about my hunt today is," Where the hell are all the hunters?! " I heard one shot all day. Deer were moving great long into the morning. Weather was chilly, but not bitter. I just don't get it. I saw over 20 deer today from stand, including 4 different bucks. And that is not including all the deer I saw driving home. 

I was hunting my own land that anyone can hunt if they ask. It's just a thick, 3-4 acre swamp with some apple, oak, and beech trees on a small ridge above it. It's just so frustrating that fewer and fewer  people are enjoying a sport that a family or a group of friends can all do together.

Heading out in 7F for yet another attempt. After being humbled by 2 great Bucks during archery season, I have been left living vicariously through all of your successes. Hopefully today is my day otherwise it will be the first time in 20 years that I have failed to connect during the archery or regular season.

We had a decent group of guys out in 8g. Most of us didn’t even cut any fresh tracks and I think in total all day 5 deer where seen.

      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
