Finally Bought a house Upstate

[Danny]

Near Worcester and walked the woods and found this the first day, not bad at all  :)

Congrats on house. Too bad that buck is dead!

[Danny]

I'm sure there are many like him

We leased a prop years ago. I’m convinced to this day that the realtor showing the property “planted” a shed in the soy bean field for us to find.

When I hear upstate, I don't think of Worcester, lol. Either way, congrats on the property.  How many acres?

 Not much at all a small piece but bordering 600 acres of state land 

800 6 minutes away, 13k in 20 minutes and befriended my neighbor that has 290acres

Sounds like you have some fantastic options. Looking forward to seeing some pics this hunting season.

Thanks bud, looking forward to a good year fingers crossed 

Just beyond the deck 50ft is the state land, local forest ranger is measuring out 500ft and posting “no discharge of firearms 500 ft of occupied dwelling”

my family will be up during hunting season I don’t need anyone shooting towards my house that you can’t see from 50 yards away

Curious. If you own the land, can you legally shoot? As long as you're 500' from your neighbor?

My closest neighbor is 800ft +
 

only person that can discharge a firearm (500ft for rifle, 250 for Xbow , 150 for bow) is the owner of the dwelling (without permission from owner)

not that I would but legally I can shoot off that deck, just not my style though

Came thru Worcester today coming back from working in Richmondville . The local church there used to put on  a strawberry shortcake day every summer . Serving out on the front lawn . Nice area all around there . Congrats 

[Danny]

Thank you it’s certainly some beautiful country up there 

And we already got our hook-up to plow my driveway:)

I know that area well, my buddy has a camp in summit (top of the hill) not far from what was the Red  Barn

As mine. I own 8.2 acres. Have permission from all that border us to shoot.  Just can't do it.

You should not have any problems finding good looking head gear out in that corner of Otsego County and schoharie county. A lot of wall hangers around from those areas. Decatur is another quite local area just over the hill from Worcester.

that would be a massive selling prop for realtors lol. anything in the country. drop a deer antler or two in the yard or woods and push them to do a quick tour lol genius!

You need your neighbors permission.

[Danny]

Under 500Ft for a firearm, 250ft for crossbow, 150ft for a bow. You need neighbors permission

beyond that you are OK

considering my house is within 100ft of the state land and you cannot see it approaching from 50 yards away as a safety measure the Forest Ranger is going to measure out the 500ft and post the state property with signs stating no discharge you are 500ft from an occupied dwelling....

Good luck with the new place, gorgeous area, my family has been hunting up in the Worcester and Harpersfield areas for the past 50 + years. I love it up there.

Got a buddy from Summit, on Hicks Rd. Nice area up there! Some nice bucks running the ridges in those parts! Congrats on the new place, and wishing you well during deer season! You are just a short drive out I-88 from me!
