I am not going after deer until October 16, when I can use my crossbow up there (and ML the following week). I am hoping to get a shot at a bear this weekend with my 30/30. The weather looks good and I am feeling pretty confident. My big Schrade knife is good and sharp and I am taking a big cooler. I hope to be skinning one and chopping off the meat by Sunday.

Yeah we've had this discussion before on the forum, but my seeing my kids is more important than that law. Plus I talked to our local DEC agent about it. Don't ask don't tell. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To heck with that ... too many critters in the woods these days and they don't care what season it is. Weather it be 2 or 4 legged. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
