I used to hunt a huge track of land in Roscoe. Very secluded other than opening week you probably won't run into anyone. Years ago it was good hunting not so much anymore.

The one I see deer on

they all suck and there all good depending on if you see deer there  or not . And the bigger the better I like.

I grew uo in Oswego county and liked hunting "Three rivers area". Now that I'm in Dutchess county, I like Layfeyetteville.

There's a line from an Eagles song that says, "call someplace paradise, kiss it goodbye."

Windham Mountain !

Renslearville State Forest used to get mobbed on opening day, hardly anybody the past 5 years.  I mention this because they logged the ever living piss out of it 2 years ago, looks very deer friendly now.  I drive through it on the way to the farm. Also interesting is that it doesn't show up as green state forest on Google maps these days.  But it's still on the DEC Web ste.

Hands down, Partridge Run in 4-H. Nowhere near as many hunters as years past. Plenty of room to spread out too. There are some hidden spots in there, that are very good for various game.

I hear good things about partridge run.  A few high school parties there that I vaguely recall.  20 years past.

I've heard Sterling too for timberdoodles

^^^^those three posts are funniest on here; maybe ever.

[Hunter007]

Here is a tip if you are new  dont have spot  dont have dmp 

Anyplace that is over 150 miles away from any populated area  and over  1000  acres the  bigger the better  probably going to be your best bet . Or just go to Stewart or sterling Forrest

For about 15 years I hunted the mountain just north of Ski Windham, on the north side of Rt 23. Up at the end of Nauvoo Rd. Shot piles of deer there. Then, in '86 we went up there and the whole place was cut up into a subdivision.

I like California hill state forest in Putnam, from a scenery perpective, but haven't seen enough deer to warrant the 100 mile trek from LI. So I hunt state and county land in 1c and lots of time i am listening to the highway or neighbors or what have you....but the spots are closeby and see deer 50 % of the days.

It's just a strange thing to ask and expect answers... The reason I enjoy pieces of woods is because it's not well known, if I go spouting about it online it may get more traffic. It's kind of like asking, what are the GPS coordinates to your best tree stand?
