Poor guy I hope they find him soon. That's some Big woods up there. One thing going for him at least it's not frigid cold.

I was up that way a few years ago hunting snowshoes with a couple of friends. I told them to make sure they took a compass reading before leaving the road. We got separated when the dog took off on a rabbit and needless to say they got lost. Good thing they had a lot of shells and I had a loud horn on the truck. Took them over two hours to finally get out. Definitely should not hunt up there without a compass or gps and know how to use them. I sure hope they find him (ok)

Trying to catch up after being offline the past few days.. have something like 20 pages to catch up on!

I ended up chickening out on Thanksgiving. Cons outweighed the pros. I did get out Friday morning though. Drove down to Hornell in 8x. Car got stuck on ice on the unplowed Rd on the way in. Managed to get that figured out and was in the stand by 645 with sunrise at 710. Sat til 10 in -7 and didn't see anything. Still hunted my way out on crunchy stuff. 8th hunt and up to 50 hrs with no luck. #inittowinit. #coldasballsoutthere

Question is :. Go out tomorrow afternoon and tick off the wife, or stay home and keep the wife happy and watch buffalo lose?

Funny you say that...I just texted my wife that I’m going tomorrow morning after she told me how nice it has been that I was home most of the weekend after thanksgiving (except for this evenings local sit!)

Action was on a little north of you. Had a coyote pass through at legal light and spook a bedded doe. She hung around for a while but zigged instead of zagged and moved off without a shot opp. Hell broke loose around 9. Two mature does ran through, thought the coyote had hung around and spooked them as well. Minutes later small buck comes on their tail following head down and hauling ass. Minutes later big buck comes through on a mission. Didn't id him, but nice sized rack and body. Tried grunting and bleating but he wanted none of it, straight on a line on the doe trail.

Quick moved to another spot that I guessed they would move through. Kicked up the doe that had worked her way through earlier. Settled in and 15 minutes later the group worked their way through but way out of range and on to neighbor property. Died after that.

Back out this evening. Lone big doe worked her way straight towards me but downwind. She came to about 20 yrds and the stopped head on. Sniffed hard for a few, then turned and slowly went back the way she came. Hunting from ground is tough. Brief opp when she turned but I thought she would run off on to neighbors property and I didn't let one fly. Nothing followed her. Coyote walked through as legal light fell.

Exciting day all in all. Hope the action moves your way.

      Broome county / Deposit ny
      By Francesco B
      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.

      What are the best steps carry a bow on your back?
      By Ainsley Ash
      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.

      A Hunter's Obligation to Know the Rules
      By JDN2K
      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...

      Bolt Action with Pistol Grip
      By Alfredo
      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
