Dom. I agree! But go back to previous yrs. dies down quick after deer season. 

Yes it does but thats because not many do more than hunt Deer.I have a great area to hunt all wild game and this is alive/from the woods.I never knew why hunting was all about just deer season when so many animals provide great times spent together and some fantastic food for all

Curious if anyone else has seen antlers dropping already?  I shot what I thought was a doe this past Saturday with the muzzle loader, and when I got up to it it had black scab marks on its head where the antlers fell off.  I have not seen this before in person, but I imagine the clean scabs over both areas meant they fell off naturally rather than broke off...

Yup this one last Wed.

Well this morning was a bad idea!! Went south in the hills cause they would have snow and some good spots to get outa the wind. Didn’t count it rained there yesterday so 5 inches snow with a big crust. Walking was brutal and loud! Sat first watch did a drive to my bil then drove the 50 min home. Now up in the far stand beautiful out. 1/2 inch snow and light flurries. No crunch! And hardly a breeze. Cmon deerz!!

We had a fun morning, I had a group come in early and bust me. Then I made a long loop around the property on the upwind side and got one deer headed up to Sodfather but just a bit short and he couldnt get a shot. TF saw deer as well and we had a great lunch. Nice wrap on the season! Good luck to the last minute crew this afternoon!

I wasn't expecting such a noisy-ass walk in! Hopefully the deer will make some noise too. Those leaves are frozen!

Sitting on the ground in a spot that I haven't been to yet this year. Put a stand here last year, because I thought it looked promising, but didn't see squat, so I pulled the stand. I walked in last weekend to check it out and was impressed by the amount of tracks and rubs. Could be because the farmer put corn in the field ~300 yards away, instead of soybeans like he had last year. WTH.... Hail Mary time and I got nothing to lose! LOL

Started off October 1 for archery first light. Going to finish last light tonight. Sammiched in between was a whole bunch of hours.   Much fun was had throughput.  Sitting in blind I shot a doe on Saturday.  Good luck to all in the last few hours of season. I’m going to miss deer season a lot.

Yeah, we’ve had some bucks already drop too. Supposedly it’s a genetic thing and not related to health.

I started oct 1st also. I've only missed a hand full of days all season! I've had a lot of fun. I'm also going to miss it a lot!

I’m going down with fight still in me! There are nine of us covering forty acres so any deer that shows itself will hear from us. Here’s hoping for one last chance after I took out a sapling yesterday. I think it flung itself into the path of my Barnes to save that doe....

Last hour is upon us!

Last sit of the year so I’m pretty bummed. Been here about a half hour and I hear woods snapping ice breaking. Naturally I’m thinking don’t move lucky bastard it’s the moment you’ve been waiting for. The footsteps get closer like behind my stand they stop and go behind me. So I take quick peak and wouldn’t ya know it.. two cows walking down my neighbors road. Wtf.

no bs it actually happened

      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
