I hunted a big 100 acre camp in Belmont for years as well .....you can't leave us hanging.
All I know I was in the Belmont hotel one night and we we're the only few guys not in a motorcycle gang. They clearly weren't following the rules on the sign that said to check your colors and sidearms at the door!

This story involves the Stillwater, The legion and Coyle hill lol

I have endless stories about those places though. There was one weekend that the owner of the Stillwater let us park our camper just outside of the side door because there was too much snow up on the hill. That weekend, no hunting happened, but I crawled out of the door of the Stillwater on my hands and knees.

Thats not the Haul A-mish story though

How many years ago?? My parents friend owned the Stillwater and in the summer they would always head down there with the group they rode Harley's with to eat and drink a bit before heading home.
The current owner is a buddy of mine that I referee college soccer with. That place gets rocking on opening weekend of rifle.

Another greet place is or was the Belevdere......didn't drink much there but man they had great food.

That would have been 15-16 years ago maybe. I cant remember the owners name or his wife. He used to have a couple of bartenders, one was a blonde named Deb maybe, her daughter worked there too. If I saw any of them Id remember their names.

That’s the only problem with landing a cute wife... you might end up with a cute daughter. 

Daughter had nutcracker performance ( ballet ) last week. Wife drove her early. I picked up daughters new boyfriend after morning hunt. Somehow I “ spilled “ my pocket full of slugs and .44 ammo on passenger floor before pick up. He’s very polite to me :rolleyes:

This is such a solid idea, I'm writing it down.  My 2 girls are 2 and 6, so 10 years give or take.

One night I was playing pool with this giant dude at the Stillwater, he kept his quarters in his ear! Did you hunt Coyle Hill? I spent the majority of five or six now seasons there

Not even close to "Live", but my season ended on Sunday.  Deer season is over in VT for another year.  The freezer if full, but it was a difficult season in some ways.  I had trouble with trespassers and thieves.  Some of that will be fixed next year with a gate.  

On the other hand, there will be venison. Filled a tag during bow season. Never saw a shooter during rifle season.  Tracked up a small one to top off the freezer during muzzleloader season.  

I got to spend most of a month in the woods.  Saw some amazing sunrises and sunsets.  Saw two giant owls on different occasions.  I almost always hunt alone, so it was fun to hunt with my best friend for a couple days.  We spent some time on a new piece of ground last week and both brought home deer.  

I'm thankful for the venison and the time in the woods.  I already can't wait for next year!

      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
