Only thing upstate has on us is body size We should play the game by the rules already in place. Let’s play baseball, but your team cannot have a third baseman. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I speak for myself only, but think most will do the same. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk I've killed.more deer with vehicles than most hunters I know, I tagged out 7 deer many years in a row in my 33 years of hunting. Any thing more than a congrats seems to lead to resentment . Pitting a region vs region will inflate some ego.. i hunt because i enjoy eating it. Killing is anticlimactic. I enjoy my trail cameras more than hunting though I like seeing other take game , its automatic at this point, only difference is how big or how many for myself , 1st ibex us sausage , second is bacon and 3rd is cuts and ground. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best of.luck to all that signed up. The last time I was in a buck contest was 1986. I won that contest, against some very good local, older hunters, who I respected a lot, when I was 29. But somehow in my own mind, it diminished the buck that I killed that year. And I never got in another "contest" again. And never will. I don't see this as a "contest" at all. Though I guess some may see it that way. I just see it as something fun, to follow along during the season. With some fellow hunters all across the state. It will in absolutely no way change how I hunt, or what I choose to shoot. And I'll cheer for every other hunter, regardless of what team they are on! Or even if they choose to not take part. I do that anyways. Every deer is it's own trophy. Best of luck to all this season! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bionic Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 (edited) @grampy I agree its not serious at all. It is, what it is. I truly find it exciting to follow along, to see what deer are taken in NY, especially nearby to where you frequent/or hunt. It’s exciting to see what’s actually out there...

squirrelwhisperer Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 (edited) I agree that it will be fun to see this progress. Truth is, I could care less about any contest. I was just breaking Chef’s ..... @Chef I am serious about taking you to a spot. I asked @Biz-R-OWorld and @cynthiafu last season, but they couldn’t make it. I would take most anybody. Who knows, I may even get an invite one day. The way I see it, If I take you to a spot and show you how to tie the knot, what bait to use, how to deploy it and you catch a few, its almost as much fun for me as if I caught them. We should have a 1C G2G so we can meet each other...hmmm...new thread? Edited August 24, 2020 by squirrelwhisperer 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
