Sitting in 7F thick stuff.   Season winding down.  Just glad to say I was able to get out this year. 

Was a great year.  I’m still here and hunting when a year ago that couldn’t be a given. 

Enjoyed a bow hunt in Kansas that messed up my NY hunting for a couple weeks.  Hunted hard last weekend and back at it again today and tomorrow. 

 

I firmly believe that once we muddle through the nonsense our biggest issue is access.  Finding quality hunting properties is very difficult.  And expensive

My hunting partner just told me of an elderly neighbor who doesn't have enough firewood. So instead of hunting with our smoke poles, we will be cutting firewood off the farm this weekend instead.

This season is the worst for me,i wounded another deer yesterday. When it rains it pours. 

Tracked it over three different properties until i got to one i can't track on. I jumped her once,no shot.

Worst season ever,aside from my first where i got nothing,but at least i didn't hurt anything besides my ego either then.

I might go out Monday or Tuesday,or maybe quit while i am behind.

Mistakes happen bud. If you have wounded 2, and it is not your zero, odds are your next opportunity will net a clean kill!

Haven't been out in 10 days. Was planning on going out this afternoon and tomorrow morning but hemming and hawing about it trying to get motivated. Then I let the dog out, and I hear that they're finally cutting the corn in the field that the wooded part of my property wraps around on two sides. I'm suddenly motivated!!

Would rather miss and eat tag soup or get no shots at all than wound. As far as ranking bad seasons go anyhow.

Sounds like you did your best to recover and that’s all that really counts in my book.

Same guy has shot 4x starting st 7:16.  Sounds like feeding single rounds into a slug gun 

Bout the same here. Two shots on the property line.  Took a walk to see if someone on lease but never saw anyone.  Neighbors are hunting on both sides.  Hard to tell where a one lone shot is exactly.  But def muzzleloader and then a follow shot 10 min later. One neighbor hunts his back yard in a tower on the property line. Think it was him.  

Maybe go back out this pm. Not sure. Not as motivated but will miss it by next weekend.

Just a disaster of a morning! Up at 4:30 and get geared up drive 50 minutes to the island. Flip the river is flooded and can’t drive in. Did not expect that. Takes an hour to drive around other bridge..... f that next spot is Tully also an hour. So pull in to there at a crisp 7:50 am

No sense sitting so trying to work up a deer now
Still some snow here.

      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
