I had to fight with myself this morning to go. 33 degrees with a 15 mph wind/28 degree wind chill and  a forecast calling for 30-40 mph winds this afternoon. Knowing I wouldn't get out this afternoon I decided to give it a go. I have been hunting this spot trying to get a glimpse of this guy but have had no luck. I had a small one come in and gave it a pass. Not hunting this afternoon and will play it by ear for tomorrow.

I wonder what an animal thinks when it hears a flock of 60 Canadian geese flying overhead for the first time in its life. Because to me it sounds like a train of death approaching. Imagine being a fawn and being like wtf is that!?

Ever hear snow geese / They sound like a tribe of Indians on the warpath

ok,season is done for me. I got the muzzle loader fixed and zeroed and went out,all i kept seeing was a tiny button buck. This season is the worst for me ever. I could go out tomorrow,but i am too frustrated. I can wait 10 months...

One doe is not a lot of meat,oh well,i guess you have to have bad experiences to really appreciate the good.

On that note,happy holidays to all and i will see you next year!!

A friend and I sat in my enclosed blind this afternoon. We didn't anticipate seeing much with it being so windy but it was good to catch up. We ended up seeing four does and fawns right at dark that were acting really spooked.

Didn't see a thing today. One more evening hunt tomorrow. Not that I think I'm going to see anything, but I just gotta do it. Spent opening morning in the stand watching the sun rise, so I always spend the last afternoon in the stand watching the sunset and reflecting on the season. It's gonna be a long wait until Oct. 1st...

A lot of tracks around the clover and I came across a beautiful rub. I mean this dude must have a lathe on his head. Well he’s one of three that I’ve been after and they’ve eluded my every effort this year. I’m pretty bummed just because it’s coming to a close. 

Picture is a wood stove mounted on a wall. Kidding my pictures  keep posting sideways.

      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
