Had a flying squirrel glide down and land right in front of my face just before i started climbing my climber up the tree...I felt the wind from the lil bugger, he stopped to stare long enough for me to get my headlamp on and then scurried up the tree. Heard an owl and spooked a 4 pt. It was great to be in the woods again. Good luck to all.

That's smart hunting PP. Bucks around my place are still in bachelor groups. They have been using an 80 acre standing corn field for cover. Early in the morning you can find them in the open hay fields sparing. Very tough to hunt them with a bow. Once the corn gets cut, they'll go back to the woods.

Wow PP. 700 lbs. of meat that must have been a heck of an Elk and Muley!!!

I think your approach is a good one though. Stay out of the woods until it is time. Over the years I have found that less is more. Meaning I see more deer when I hunt less.

I was lucky enough to put a muzzy through my 1st letchworth St park buck today, the permit to hunt there with a bow or muzzleloader is self-issue online while regular season is still lottery, anyway i shot a 6 pt. Nothing fancy except i had to drag it a mile up a gulley to yhe road but was well worth it.

I wish buffalo meat was more available, not talking ground, i mean real steak. When i was young my grandfather would go and stock his freezer from a buffalo meat farm in bloomfield ny, he'd spend $1400 and then sell steak on a stick at the native American festivals, i would eat whatever he couldnt catch me eating.m

  Also, I found a place online where you can buy an 1/8 of a bison for $490. Cheaper than taking 10 days off of work, traveling across the country and paying 5-6k to shoot one. Might just try it!   :P

I took my 4 year old out for his first "hunting" trip tonight. We kept it short, a little over an hour before sunset. The deer cooperated nicely. We had 2 doe come through and we didn't spook them.

Sitting still is a tough concept to understand but we have whispering down to a science. Luckily we were in one of my "blinds" so movement was not a big deal. ;D

I like the way new york handles the crossbows. To me theyre simplu not the same as a long bow wether that be compound recurv. If theyre going to open the entire bow season too crossbows i hope they make it shorter too. Disclaimer- crossbows should always be an option for someone who can not pull and or hold a bow back.

I can see a crossbow in my future as I had to get 2 shots of cortisone in my shoulder in order to draw my bow this year.   I shot my brother's crossbow at a target last week and it was sure nice.  First shot dead center in the bullseye.

I know  after  nov 5   we  can  hunt  with them  :) and frank I  can  understand  the  shoulder problems  as well .....  PA  has  showed  no harm  from  opening the  entire season to  crossbows  and   now it's  a  matter of  time  new  York will  follow ... we  can   complain that  bow  season is  to long but the  numbers  don't lie  we  have  a  high population of  deer and  less hunters   in order  to maintane proper  management numbers  we  have  to  get  more  deer harvested ...if hunters  don't  do the  job  regulated federal shooters  will ,look at long  island ....by the  way I  got mu  Barnett gamecrusher  on  sale at  dicks  for  299  dollars  165  pound  draw  and  330 fps  I  think it's a  quality   bow  and  affordable ....

rugburn  it  was  really  fun  using a  recurve and  my  heart rate  went  up  on that  one  ,was  funny I  could see the  arrow  and seen it  hit

When they first started talking about opening bow season up to crossbows I was not onboard. Since then both my mom and father in law started hunting with crossbows and now I think it was a good move. If it gives them a few extra bow seasons to enjoy the woods then it is a good thing to me.

Comparing a crossbow to even a compound bow is apples and oranges. That crossbow is so easy to shoot.

yes  and  no  modern  compounds  and  the  draw  weights  people  are shooting  now  is  unbelievable  and the  distance  some  shooters  can  make a  good  shoot ,  bow hunting has  changed a lot in  50 years  and  I  am sure  will keep changing  ....reeleyz  your  right  about getting a  few  extra  seasons   my  old  Oneida  is  down to  52  pounds  and  my  shoulder  still hurts ....i'm  hunting  with  what  ever is  legal ,,, what  ever  can make a  humane  shot  and  what  ever  i'm  comfortable with  that day ...i'm not ready  to hang my bow  up  but  I  can't  crank it  to 70 lbs  no  more  either

  I'm all for the cross bow. Even though I'm an archery hunter I'd use a Xb over archery gear in a lot of situations. Nothing compares to the thrill of a bow kill... But I like dead deer any way I can get em in the end. Especially on the grill or in a stew  ;D

 So far I passed on a spike horn and a 1 1/2 year old doe. Figured that doe was a fawn last season and hasn't even had a chance to breed yet. Hate to deny her that fun. But I sure was tempted, she would've made fine eating. If this wind would let up, maybe the big boys will get on their feet. Not many reports of kills as of yet in my neighborhood, time to get to it guys! The next two weeks should get interesting. Good luck to all.

I missed a big 150" buck the second Sunday of the season, my bottom limb hit a tree limb.
I knew I was in a bad way when he came in, he was on his feet early that afternoon,
found my arrow clean miss, I knew it was an "all" or "nothing" shot.
Haven't seen him since, he prolly learned just a little bit by it.
And before anybody screams about an unethical shot, "save it", I've had way too much
experience with a bow, and the adverse effect on arrow flight when a bow limb hits an obstruction(a solid obstruction)
ie: 3D archery, practice shooting, etc.
Good luck out there guys, best is yet to come!

no unethical shot  screams   but  I  did the  same  thing  years  ago  and  my  bow   derailed  and  the  limb broke ....I  had  a  bruise on my  arm  for  a  month  and  I  piece of junk  left for a  bow, I  did basically  the  same  thing you did,  nice  deer  came  in   I  wasn't thinking  got  to  close  to the  rail on  the  tower released  and  my  bow  blew  up  when the limb hit .....  that  deer  might have  learned a little  but  so  did  you  ...thanks  for  sharing the  story  you  very well may have  prevented  someone  else  from  making the  same  mistake and  getting  seriously hurt ....no matter  how  much  experience we have  ,no matter  how  good  we  are ,anyone  can  make a  mistake and a  accident  is  only a  second  away .the  tree  stand  is  a long ways  from  your  car  or  from help  so be careful

So far I passed on a spike horn and a 1 1/2 year old doe. Figured that doe was a fawn last season and hasn't even had a chance to breed yet. Hate to deny her that fun. But I sure was tempted, she would've made fine eating. If this wind would let up, maybe the big boys will get on their feet. Not many reports of kills as of yet in my neighborhood, time to get to it guys! The next two weeks should get interesting. Good luck to all. 


That spike would a lot better than that nasty thing you shot last year.  :D ;) ;)

Last season I shot a yote and went to nock another arrow and the nock point was way low. I had hit the arm of my climber and knocked the string off the cam. Fortunately I didn't miss the yote.

Fortunately my bow stayed together, but it did shoot low after that, must have stretched the string or buss cable.
Got it sighted back in, throw new cables on it after the season.
My buddy is sitting in that same stand this morning, he hasn't got to worry about that particular tree limb,
it's laying on the ground now!  :D

Fooled this joker yesterday morning after he was acting like a bird dog panicking to find a doe that must of came thru before daylight in a goldenrod field.  He did a 180degree turn after a dozen or so grunts at him.  Pretended like i was chasing his doe n he came running.

I haven't been on here in a while...lots of great stories and pictures, congrats to all...

I took my annual Veterans Day week off for the hope of an exciting rut filled week of deer action.  It was all of that again this year.  Young bucks were chasing does like crazy.  I saw a total of 15 bucks, 3 of which were shooters for me.  I watched young bucks competing for does, grunting like crazy and fighting.  The last two years have been awesome for bucks responding to calls.  I bleated in or changed the direction of most of the bucks I saw, 9 of them within bow range.  I saw 18 other deer mostly Does and Fawns with a couple unknowns.  The weather was a little bit of everything, from wet and rainy to cold crisp potato chip leaves. Lots of laughs in camp, great food and a couple nights a few too many brews.  So election day I was home the night before and I voted Tuesday morning...I got to camp and was in my stand around 1100 AM and I was going to sit till dark.  Somewhere around 1500 the woods came alive.  I could hear a serious chase going on and coming my way.  About 10 minutes of crashing and banging they were headed my way.  Branches breaking and grunts flying a doe with her tongue hanging out went by one of my lanes...then a 4 point and then a spike horn.  they ran around me for another 5 minutes.  The doe hunched up under a small tree about 45 yards away.  The two small bucks circled each other trying to keep the other away from the doe.  They were all exhausted.  They all rested and I heard some noise behind me.  Up came a buck I called El Toro from cam pics.  He was fresh...A spike pretty tall and wide, looks like a small bull.  He ran off the two other bucks and followed the doe off down the hill.  The woods went quiet for a bit.  A little after 1600 I hear a deer coming from my right. He finally comes out of the hemlocks and it is a good buck.  He is smelling the party from earlier then he goes right over to where the doe stood and he licked the ground and sniffed the entire area.  He turned and started to head down hill and I let out bleats until he stopped and looked back.  I then let one more bleat out behind the tree and he turned and was headed my way.  He passed through a shooting lane about 25 yards...I blatted to stop him and he stopped broadside...put the pin on him and watched my arrow through.  I hit about 2 inches lower than I aimed ( it ended up being closer to 30 yards)  I took out the bottom of his heart.  He dropped less than 100 yards from me and only went about 60 yards total.  I am very happy with the season.  I can't wait until next year.  Lots of young bucks!

What a day yesterday was. I took my mom out with the rifle to try and get her a shot at a buck. So at daylight a small buck goes by me, looked like a 4 point. Then at 7:30 she shoots and it sounds like a good shot. So I told her I would stop over at 9 and track him out. 8:30 I catch some movement and then I see nothing for 10 minutes. Then out steps a nice 9 point. He gave me plenty of time for a good shot and I thought long and hard about filling my last buck tag. I shot and he went just out of sight and crashed. I tracked him out. Then I went over to my mom and tracked her buck out. It was a 4 point, not the same buck I passed on though. I went back in and got my 4 year old son for a little tracking and gutting lesson.

It was an awesome day. Just perfect weather, 2 clean kills, and a fun time with my mom and son.

Great that everyone's filling their freezers, just got back from a Missouri week of bowhunting and visiting good freinds in Iowa. Wasn't planning the trip at all and it went better than expected. Buddy got a 155" buck and we both had multiple encounters with good bucks. Let the good times roll.

Lack of cover is the deal.....farms all plant crops right next to each one.  No more hedge rows or fallow areas,  I actively cut to keep young thick cover for the Grouse and Woodcock.  The Pheasants are unfortunately pretty much put and take  anymore.

Of course, I can't even remember the last time I even saw a pheasant in WNY.

I can buy chicken at Tops.

Shot a 6 pt last tues afternoon. He got up 4 times in the next 2.5 hrs moving approx. 20 yds each time. Put him up again just before dark and backed off. Found next morn. Still warm inside but had a bad smell. Arrow hit liver and lung and maybe pancreas. Jay and I skinned and de boned and let sit in cooler for a day. Smell was stronger than we ever had noticed in the past so we threw it away. A sad story on my 102 bow kill.

Nice bucks Bruce and Scott, and congratulations to everyone else that has posted.

Got a nice 8 pointer on my 2016 Ohio public land hunt with my recurve, nice to get back there after missing last year. Passed several bucks in NY before I left that were inside 10 yds: 1 spike, a 4, 3 6's and a small 8; now trying to get another good one during gun season with my bow.

Got a decent 6 point last Saturday morning. Tried to hold out for one of the bigger bucks we have on camera but running out of time with the bow and I'm getting hungry lol. Was an awesome hunt. Had 8 different deer walk by and passed on a spike and a 4 point before this guy came in and gave me a 12 yard shot. Put the muzzy through both lungs and watched him tip over after trotting 20 yards. It's been 3 years since I arrowed a deer to the day and I think 5 years since my last buck with the bow. Lots of deer passed on in that time as well.

  Hey Bobby, no shame bro. Wonderful deer. The thing about Ar's looking to the future and passing a deer like that....... "let em go, let em grow" Look if all you want is a slammer, Do what makes you happy, personally its a who pisses farther contest as far as I'm concerned...... Enough has been said on the topic. I'm at the point where I'm less offended by the Elitists posting their beliefs than I am by Guys who want a good one, take a "Bad" one and apologize for it while posting about it. I ain't coming at you specifically, not in any way. But I see day after day someone post a deer and say " I know it's not the biggest...." Boils my blood bro. You took what you took, ZERO need to apologize. I've defended my choice to take my buck to the point where I'm sick. I wanted to take it, and so I did.

Nice shooting deadeyes n jj.  Hard to pass up opportunities towards the end of the season. Seems everyones scrambling to get their rifles sighted in this week.  Local gun club upset off a lot of ppl running a safety course this past weekend, and not allowing their members to use the range.  Been hearing about it all week from guys around town. Shoot straight.

I don't care how long I boil my archery tag, Friday night, I know it will NOT taste as good as the worst cut of meat from a nice little "tender" buck. It makes it a little easier because now my kids want some deer to eat, they really dont care what it looked like walking around. I still fight with myself, should I take him or hope for a bigger one tomorrow. For the last 2 years I eatten my bow tag and the taste is still in my mouth. Yuk.

oh  well  life  is  still good  I had a  great  bow  season  and  even   got lucky and  found a  dumb  one .....the  phone  had a crack in the  screen  anyways

 Had a great time in Kansas this year. Saw multiple bucks every day. My last day there was the first day of pheasant season. I have never seen so many birds. It was like being on a tv show. I managed 2 birds and lost a few runners.
(http://i1142.photobucket.com/albums/n617/ljc2tall/pheasant_zpsq7oc9bqz.jpg) (http://s1142.photobucket.com/user/ljc2tall/media/pheasant_zpsq7oc9bqz.jpg.html)

 I shaved a strip of hair off a nice 10 point. Didn't draw any blood. Then had this guy come in and had a 15 yard shot. It was a little longer tracking job than I figured, but it was easy to follow.

Last Saturday after noon my brother arowed a buck with the Xbow..   Very close shot.   Bolt went through and stuck in a tree...    Blood and hair on the rage but not at the site..  Ran into a huge swamp..    He let it go and 4 of us were there at sun up the next morning...  Just buy accident we found blood on a sapling 40 yards away where it brushed against it...  Blood up high on the wood bout 2 1/2 feet..  But nothing else till we found a spot where we had a "spot" of blood on both side of the trail but that was it...  So fanning out again we found this another 40 yards away..  My brother said it happened so fast hes not sure if this is his buck or not..   Seemed kind of fresh, lots of hair and not smelling bad but no gut pile or fresh blood..
My question is can this be cleaned like this in 14 hours?

Raquettedacker, I had a co-worker tell me he had a buck eaten overnight. No pictures so I don't know what he meant by, "eaten"?

Wow those pics are proof you definitely cant eat the antlers,  nice buck. the yotes pretty much had it all caped out for the taxi ha. I shot a button buck while walking out of the state lands in springwater during that snow storm witb my 270. Definitely thought it was a doe but im not too picky this time of year and it was a heck of a shot from that steep hill watching him run through the swamp.  looked bigger than a Rottweiler so i let the lead fly. They were giving the 8n tags out like candy might as well fill em. The inner loins were sooo tender.

Post by: mcully on Nov 23, 2016, 12:58 PM
Thank you for posting. Wish it was a more complete ending but it is what it is. It was 12 months ago to the day and I had a broadside shot at 35 yards of a calm buck courting a doe. At the shot he took off with his head high and tail straight up. I really don't think he knew he was hit but I didn't see where the arrow hit either. It was late afternoon so I gave it an hour before looking for my arrow. I found it and it looked OK with blood and no fat or other matter but I still didn't know where I hit so I backed out and waited another hour and dialed a friend to help. He went into a large tract of big pines and tracking was on hands and knees on the pine needles. Every once in a while I'd see a spray signaling lung but it wasn't consistent so I thought maybe high lung. We tracked for several hundred yards and he came out of the pines and got into golden rod where it was really tough seeing blood. It was in the twenties and about 10pm so we decided to back out until morning. I contacted a friend with deer search and he had just given his dog a shot and didn't want to run her that night but he agreed to meet me at 6 the next morning. We took our time getting going but at first light headed to last blood. The dog picked up the track right away and within 20 yards of where we stopped Helen Keller could have followed as the blood was spraying on both sides of the trail all over the trees. We went another 40 yards and there he lay, or at least what was left of him. He's about a 140" 8 point with 5.5 inch bases. The score doesn't do him justice. I have live pictures so I might have his brow tine rebuilt since it's going to be on a different cape anyway. I purchased the Milwaukee flood light for my fuel drill battery and will track until all blood is gone if it ever happens again. I've added lit knocks too. And taken up coyote hunting. The next morning I center punched a big doe and watched her drop 50 yards away. Those big guys don't die easy.
I had left a few deer overnight the 30 years I've hunted this property and never had an issue.

 Another beauty for PP! Nice buck.
 For archery I passed on a pile of smaller bucks and ended up arrowing a nice doe on the last week of bow.
 So far for gun I've seen a couple of shooters, but just couldn't get that clean shot I like. Helped a guy track a wounded trophy on opening day of gun, the shot wasn't good enough as the big boy gave us the slip. That helped cement my decision to wait for a good shot.
 Coolest hunt ever yesterday morning, saw three Bobcats traveling together. I was slowly coming down a switch back on my way to the vehicle and some movement caught my eye. A bobcat, no two, wait three. I was only 30 yards away from them, not moving a muscle. Apparently they can't see blaze orange! Didn't kill a thing that morning, but I'll remember those cats for a long while. Haven't seen one in 40 years.  ;D

DD my second shot while he was running was right in the neck he was 15 yards broadside on the first shot watch him walk right up the scape line with a South East wind in my face opening day there were 3 scapes on this little bench second morning 7....I couldn't believe he hit it that hard in one night figuring he was freshen them up after the rain so after the rain Wednesday night I thought he might come back and sure enough 720 am right up the scrape line

Thered be a lot more pages if we didnt have to use Photobucket.  Complete pain in the kiester


Requiring us to use a 3rd party photo posting website like Photobucket, versus Scott allowing you to upload the photo or videos directly here, saves Scott on TONS of server space and bandwidth.  For him to host all of the photos and videos that are posted here would quadruple the memory requirement of MFF (not to mention IS).
The cost associated with this would have to be absorbed by someone.
Meaning the need for more advertisers and/or maybe a cost to the members.

This site (and IS) is currently still free to us.

My suggestion - if you don't like PB, find and use another photo posting provider, like others do.

BTW, PB is free too.  You get what you pay for.
I use PB, and it's slow.
But for free..................I can live with it.


Just my $0.02

Was able to connect on this nice doe the other day. Was stalking along in a willow flat and a woodcock flew up from my feet. I jumped out of my skin. As I was watching it fly away I remarked to myself how it had been years since I've saw one. I took the time to look around and to my left was this deer bedded down twenty yards away. Boom. And she went home with me. Good times.

Thank you.  I was a very long way from the car so I used the gutless method to debone her in the field. The head shot destroyed zero meat so I was able to get the flank and brisket meat as well.  It took me an hour to do the butchering. The meat was wrapped in a cotton bed sheet and tied in a bundle. The pack I brought was too small but two hours later I was back at the car with over 50# of meat. I slept like a log that night.

I haven't used any gun in 5 seasons. The Mathews barks even during gun seasons but my ears still never stop ringing from previous gun seasons and duck hunting.

Went back to the same area today and walked around for the morning.  I have to laugh every time I pass the same game camera someone has set out on a trail.  I have no idea how I see them but I do and every time I make the same stupid face.  Like "oops" and "I see you" all in one dumb look.  I'd love to hear the guy going through his pics  "....and there goes goofy face...AGAIN!"  I know I'm not the only one on this chunk of public land but if the amount of treestands I've seen is any indication to the quality of the deer in the area then I'm writing my acceptance speech to the Big Bucks Club now.  Lots of hardware.  It's good to know where they are so when I'm walking around in the future I'll know where to look out for others hunting and give them a wider margin.  Best part of the day was finding a stone in the river that looks like a fossilized piece of femur bone.  Even if it's not it looks cool.

     I use 2 pounds of bacon to 10 pounds of venison.. And I always wrap them in foil before they go on the grill and cook on high for a while than open and just brown them.  Works for me..

 On a tip from a butcher who does pigs for us, he said try a little beef fat in your ground venison. We were asking about some pork butt to add, as you all know straight venison ground doesn't hold together in a patty. In the past we have done the bacon, sage, salt & pepper for a great breakfast sausage. Anyway, a bunch of guys were together cutting up deer in a buddies barn one day, and I had some beef fat the butcher gave us for free. We mixed 10% into a batch of ground and cooked it up on the spot. Everyone fell in love, still had the great venison flavor we were after and held together nicely. Its the only way we do it anymore (the whole barn full of guys). You can't go wrong anyway you do it, it's all good, but this has become our favorite.

Made me hungry again! You got a drive thru?  ;D


Helped a friend process once, he had me grinding the really gnarly stuff. After one pass it still looked rough so I ran it through again. Well it came out um,... kinda pulpy. He freaked a little when he saw I had ground it all to this consistancy. He had me add the tallow to see if that would do anything. still looked.....a little 'loose'. I apologized for not asking him before just going ahead and doing it. Later he called and asked me to stop over. He pulled out a meatloaf he had just made from the batch, it was outstanding! So it turned out not to be a mistake in this case, but it probably wouldn't have made good patties. At least he wasn't mad anymore. (or at least till my Great Dane snagged a huge bag of jerky and ate it on him).

Well the sadness of the end of my 2016 hunting season has come. I have been working crazy hours but was able to get last Saturday off. Headed to camp Friday night and we had some drinks and good food. Lots of laughs. We didn't set an alarm and got up and had a big breakfast. We got a perfect dusting of snow overnight. The wind was light out of the Northeast and the conditions could not have been more perfect. We headed up on the hill with a good strategy to still hunt and ensure we were all in the right areas when deer began to move. We saw 20 deer between the three of us and we ended up with 3 deer before noon. Every deer was a team effort. We headed back to camp and cleaned it up for the season and headed out before dark. What a great ending to an awesome season...I plugged away at the deer all week.  I had some of the trim taken to my favorite meat place.  I had 20 pounds of Old fashioned Bologna made, 20 pounds of venison Kielbasa, 15 pounds of breakfast sausage.  I mixed up 8 pounds of hickory blend ground venison and did it on the smoker.  Wicked good and I experimented with a Croghan Bologna.  I made 4 cased smoked versions of it.  The freezer is packed and I shared 2/3's of that good stuff with my buddies. They each get a medium cooler full.  I am very pleased with my season...I saw tons of deer with my bow, I killed one of my best bow bucks and I was able to fill a doe tag and my gun buck tag.  Time to shift gears and get ready for winter and I might try to get out and do a little ice fishing...

filled a doe tag with my bow yesterday with a nice double lung shot, went 75 yards at most.
One more week of tree climbing before I call it quits and get ice stuff ready.
That blast of deep snow opening week saved a bunch of deer for sure.
Very windy season with more gusty days than I can recall with a ton of SSW. Not much from the east this year compared to the last two years where it felt like I'd never get a westerly breeze.

Likewise Perry, 2 nice toms in one year is pretty special. I can't wait to see the full mount of the 1st bird you shot this year. Be sure to post pictures here. I'm sure everyone will enjoy it.
So, thanks again for the wings and I can also use hen wings if you hunt in the fall. They have a higher sound and I've read that some guys prefer them to tom bones...thinking that a tom might respond better to a higher pitch I guess.
So, I'll be in touch with you later...it might take awhile for me to get to it; but I'll bet I'll be done before the taxidermist. ;D

Hey Dug , my name is Perry(sounds like Terry) ......... LOL  I will include my return address in with the wings ! I have them here at work today and will be shipping them UPS later,hopefully they will arrive in a day or two ! I spent many hours in the woods  to bag both Toms and I am lucky to have some private property with a healthy Turkey population ! Looking forward to trying the wing bone call :-) I will need some instruction on how to post pictures here. The taxidermist says it will be done by year end :-)

Sorry about that Perry, like I said in my PM, now I've gotten both names wrong. ;D (I do need hearing aides)  :-\

As far as posting pics goes...Your pictures need to be on Photobucket...then go to the main Forum page and look under Fishing Media, click on Fishing Pictures and click on Picture Posting Instructions by rgfixit...then look for "Posting pictures on the site" and remember after you choose your picture...click on "Direct Link".
It's easy...the "direct link" part is what I always forget...Good luck and thanks again

I did not know this exception, here is some information from the DEC website:

You do not need a hunting license if you are:

A resident landowner primarily engaged in farming (including lessees and members of their immediate families) when small game hunting on farm lands they are occupying and cultivating.
A Native American living and hunting on reservation land.
Hunting on a licensed shooting preserve or big game shooting facility..
Note: To hunt turkey, all hunters must purchase a turkey permit. There are no exceptions.

Good luck to all going out bow hunting this coming Sunday! I know it's been to warm out to think hunting, but here it comes. The wood shed is full to the brim. Been shooting the bow the last month or so. Moved a few stands, and freshened up some ground blinds. Just put a pig in the freezer. Let the good times roll!

It is hard to believe that the NZ opener is tomorrow. I am not sure when I will get out. I plan on hitting it hard closer to Halloween.

 Yeah most of my friends are staying in the fishing mode for now. My Lund sits in the attack position, just want to fill a doe tag early, then back fishing. It's hard to do it all and work at the same time! Just a great time of year! Hope the cold front gets here soon, or I'll be grinding the majority of the first kill.

How well did you shoot Sunday Dave? I did a 271.
Still in the fishing mode also.

 Kc you beat me, 267. When did they go to 30 shots? The guy I was shooting with totally unraveled, although it was his first 3D event ever. He left a pair of binos behind early on. The sweat was pouring off of him to the point of fogging his glasses. Then about 2/3 of the way through, he dry fired his bow! That was it for him, DNF. The bow did survive. So, with that I felt pretty good with my shooting. Not my best day, not my worst.

Post by: kc on Sep 26, 2017, 11:40 AM
He did get them back right? When we got back to the clubhouse, they asked us if we lost any bino's.
 I don't usually lose it on the 3d course, I wait until a buck walks in front of me and then I chole.
Title: Re: NY Fisherman Hunting and BS'n Thread
Post by: Rugburn on Sep 26, 2017, 12:26 PM
Yes he did get them back, nice honest people at the 3D shoot! Most of my scoring troubles come from not knowing where the points are on the target, like the cobra and the quartering back of a standing bear. We don't walk up to look. From afar the shot looks like a winner, then up close not so good points wise. But that's OK with me, I don't hunt cobras.

X2     Unless you have a cooler to hang in that's the program for warm weather.
 Had a huge doe come in Sunday morning, and I had the same idea as mcully. She was a monster big old gal with no fawns in tow. As I faced her I felt the slight breeze on the back of my neck. The morning wind direction had switched 180 degrees since day break. You guessed it, she winded me, ran back to a safe distance, and proceeded to blow and blow. Every deer in a half mile radius knew the gig. Good to get in a stand! Good luck to all, and keep the wind in your face!   :P

My wife thinks I'm nuts but I have 2 refrigerators in our galley kitchen. 5 gallon buckets fit nicely in one of them so no rush to clean a late afternoon catch and plenty of room for deer quarters or boned out bigger cuts. I don't like cutting things up in a cold garage anymore and she's pretty tolerant. Live fish flopping around sometimes gets me a sideways look.

Post by: Dug1898 on Oct 19, 2017, 08:51 AM
You're welcome Perry. I'm glad you like it, I went over and above to make a nice call for you. Being your 7th gobbler inspired me to finally add some turkey tracks to a call. I'd been struggling trying to figure them out for awhile now. 7 tracks fit perfectly and I like the look of them.
I've made more plain calls in the past; but you deserved something special. You were the only response to my and filet's request for turkey wings.
So you won the grand prize, lmao ;D
Plus it was Lucky #7...and you did a great job saving and shipping them too.
So thanks Perry, good luck calling in some birds with it, have fun...
Here's your call...

Thanks guys, I enjoy making them and enjoy it even more when a bird comes to the call. I'm not a good spring turkey hunter, so I've never called in a big gobbler; but several fall birds such as jakes and hens have met their demise responding to one of them. I've located gobblers in the spring with it; but never had the chance to shoot one...yet. :-\

I used to hunt private property, I did alot of work for this farmer and he would give me access to his land, I used to do a little but a little wasnt doin so a little got more and more, so I quit that gig and just hunt the good ol nys property, and letchworth. I wish I had land to put up trail cams and ladder stands but ill keep putting them down in my climber and draggin em up gulleys until im not able to anymore. I had some awesome land that i used to hunt until the fire dept and sheriffs leased it out. the owner didnt even give me the option to lease it once the law started asking for permission. hunting  land is hard to come by, so I study the state lands and shoot whatever I feel like.

You are in a deer rich area. We have a lot of stateland near me. But alot is pine plantions that don't have a lot of feed for the deer. I have private land I can hunt. Also have 12 acres of my own. 30 feet off my deck and I am hunting.

Jay and I were out Saturday Morning. I shot a decent 8pt at 7:17 and Jay got a 4pt at 8:30. He went for walleye in the afternoon and landed 2 keepers. I am going for walleye tomorrow and  every day I can after as we now have 4 in the freezer.

Great job to all that connected!

I shot a 6 pt Saturday. Then Sunday while watching the Giants game (and napping) the wife says "deer deer". So I jumped to action and shot the doe on our back yard. She does love her venison, good wife!
gotta love when the wifes on your side!!

Nice job guys.

Today looked like a perfect day to hunt. So I snuck out of work a little early and hunted behind the house.

I wasn't there for a half hour and a nice 9 point came trotting in.

The timing was prefect. My best buddy was just getting off the bus so he gave me a hand.

Got lucky Thanksgiving morning with this scrapper 9pt. he had three tines on the left either broken or chipped. one just enough to keep him from being tagged as a 10. He will join a 4pt. I got with the bow and a BB I finished off that someone shot in his leg sometime earlier on opening day.

Cool pic raquette, I've only seen one white deer in my life, it was a doe in scottsville last year during Thanksgiving dinner then a few times after that but she seemed to have disappeared. I seen a pie bald fawn standing by the Thruway exit on 390 south years ago, that was wild looking. Im hoping to see some whitetail (deer) up close and personal soon, my freezer is empty, I'm doing my uncles roof for him this weekend but I'm gonna have to squeeze some treestand time in somewhere...no more side work after this weekend till I kill something!!

Isn't it a genetic mutation that doesn't allow them to camouflage into their surroundings?  May be bad luck but I thought shooting them was good for the genetics.

If there is snow they blend in just fine. Saw that pie bald deer when he was just a 4 pt. It was blowing snow sideways, had to do the double take, he was very tough to pick out at 40 yards.

Hopefully one of you fellas can help me out. I got a Remington model 700 muzzleloader that won't go off on the first shot. You have to lift the bolt and then it'll go off. I cleaned everything let the parts dry wiped them off and it still does it. I pulled the bolt apart cleaned the spring and same thing.

Years ago I had permission to hut a very large farm and the only no no was don’t shoot the white buck he was a beautiful 8 point , and some ass hat shot it and that ended the hunting for everyone , 🤬

You want to contact Remington. Friend of mine has one. He had to send his back, due to same problem. Not sure what the issue was, but, they corrected it! Good luck!

Good advise from KP... Spring fatigue and or hang-up.
Plus those guns, depending on age, were noted for issues with the safety. If sent back to their authorized repair shop, this will also be corrected at that time. Very important!!!

Nice day man, that photo takes me back to my days of upland bird hunting. Pheasant, grouse, woodcock and a duck or 2 if you walked along a stream or pond. My Irish setter Casey flushed them all and fetched them too; but only fetched 1 woodcock! After that, he'd flush them up; but would never pick 1 up again. Weird, must be he didn't like the taste of them. Silly dog, he was the best bird dog I ever had the pleasure of owning. Bought him as a pup for $25 from a friend who's dad raised and hunted them. The good ole days.  :thumbup_smilie:

I do not think I could ever go without a dog. More specifically, I love German Shorthaired Pointers. I own 3 now, and already put 2 down. Intelligent, hard working, always willing to please, amazing in the field and even better as family dogs..... though they think they are lap dogs. Memories that cannot be justified with words.

We love our dogs that's for sure!!!   And our dogs love us more...even than our spouses!

Lock you dog and you wife in the trunk of the car for an hour and tell which one is happy to see you when you let them back out???!!!


Sorry Scout.....wouldn't trade Grouse breasts for anything.....even if i could they are gone too fast!!

Congrats Bruce!  I saw 3 this evening on watch with my bow but didn’t shoot. Only one that came into range was a button buck. This guy has been in the area where my stand is. Hoping to cross paths with him soon.

I started a new job at the start of this bow season so I have only sat in a stand for a total of 5 1/2 hrs, it sucks!! So when I went to go sit in the stand behind my house the other night and this scrub buck hopped up I didn't even hesitate, I shot him on the spot, turned around and went back in the house LoL!! He made it about 10 yrds and crashed and didn't go no further. His eye was gored and there was big gore mark across his eye and his antler was broke off, it looked very recent, the cut and eye wound was real fresh and still bleeding. Wish I could see the one that put a whoopin on him but I'll take what I can get at this point!!

Good job on the venison dirty! Looks like he might have been clipped by a car.
I kind of thought that might have happen at first too but there were no other injuries to the body and all the meat was fine, no bruising whatsoever, I thinks he got into a scuffle, the damage was all done to his eye and the top of his head

Nice day man, that photo takes me back to my days of upland bird hunting. Pheasant, grouse, woodcock and a duck or 2 if you walked along a stream or pond. My Irish setter Casey flushed them all and fetched them too; but only fetched 1 woodcock! After that, he'd flush them up; but would never pick 1 up again. Weird, must be he didn't like the taste of them. Silly dog, he was the best bird dog I ever had the pleasure of owning. Bought him as a pup for $25 from a friend who's dad raised and hunted them. The good ole days.  :thumbup_smilie:


yep.  must dogs won't pickup a woodcock.    must be the worms make them stink.   don't blame the dog 😉

I took time off from fishing to go out and use the crossbow ... after setting as long as I can  ...about 10 minutes I heard something coming ,turns out to be a really decent doe .... about 15 yards....crossbows really hit hard  and I did not have to follow her very far ...impressed with my expert hunting abilities I gut her and got out the rope.....OMG  either deer became heavier or I got older  :( .....I dragged a few feet and rested ,r=thank God for making me lazy and I was only 75 yards off the roadway .....ok we are now at the truck ......wait this deer has to go into the back of mt truck which means I have to lift her ...I tried about 100 ways to get her in there with no luck till a man decided to help me.....I had to call Freddie to tell him about yesterdays fish and my new founded luck ..... which he said  why didn't ya just call me I woulda came and helped you ....duh   so I have decided as a true sportsman  no more big deer  they are big targets and anyone can hit them ,i'm shooting hard to hit small deer

thank you to the gentleman that saved me from a heart attack   or a back operation

I picked up a deer sled. It works pretty good. Way easier than dragging them the old fashioned way.
Title: Re: NY Fisherman Hunting and BS'n Thread
Post by: Dug1898 on Nov 12, 2018, 05:37 PM
Way to go Trapper, nice deer.
I keep a plastic sled around (aka icefishing sled) just in case I get lucky. I'd load the deer in the back of my truck by pulling the head and neck up to the back of the truck or in your case up to the tailgate. Tie it off so the head is up over the edge, then pick up the back legs and roll the deer by any means possible into the vehicle. I know it's no easy feat, especially with back problems. I sure know about them.
Did you gut the deer on your tailgate? All the coyotes within miles will be trailing you home. If the deer is hanging up outside, keep your eye on it...they like to eat the tail end...

I did see a doe and fawn whizz by at 65 yards coming from the neighboring property where they were doing a drive. Then I saw the biggest buck I’ve ever seen while hunting dogging 2 does but couldn’t get a shot. At least there’s still time to get after him if he stays around the farm I hunt. 🤞🏻

Got out this afternoon for evening watch. Bump 4 does on my way in then didn’t see anything for the next few hours. Then a buck I’ve been trying to cross paths with came through at 4:15. Ended up with a heart shot at 65 yards. He jumped and ran off and crashed 50 yards from where I shot him. Not a drop of blood at the spot where I shot him or on the track to where he lay!  What an awesome hunt and my biggest buck to date. Also had 4 buddies to help me get him out. Had to get him up a good sized ridge to get him out. Can’t thank them enough for there help!

I  didn't see  many hunters  but I seen some nice deer taken for  sure  ..... I do notice  the  difference in how  many deer I see because theres not as many people pushing them as there use to be .....and I as a older shooter really am glad I got to hunt with my cross  bow  I had a lot of  shoulder  issues and the doctor  said  noooooooooooo bow hunting this  year  but  the  cross bow  kept this ole  boy in the game .....  good luck and a great job  folks love  the pictures

Any deer can be a trophy its in the eyes of the one that shot it. Today my brother 64 years old shot his second deer of his life. Never has time to hunt always working and family obligations. Just have fun enjoy the woods and family.

I had the honor of taking my grandfather out on his last hunt. He had a bad heart and they put a pig artery in there to fix it and told him he would feel 15 yrs younger so he started walking and staying active and I started begging him and my uncle to hunt with me. He finally agreed and I set my uncle up to the left and my grandpa up to the right of me. About an hour or so after daylight I seen a small doe cone out and it was going straight towards my uncle so I didn't shoot, a few minutes later I heard him shoot a d roll it down the hill, 1st deer for him in yrs  so I go over and I'm helping him get it when we hear grandpa shoot, then shoot again, and again and then I start running over and he shoots two more times lol. I get over to where he is and he's fumbling with bullets trying not to fall coming down the hill i ask him you hit one? He says yeah its down in that brush over there, I get over to it and it picks itself up on it's front legs then let out a demon sounding grunt and had lunged at me. I step back and asked Gramps if I should shoot it he said he wanted to so he came over and without thinking shot it through the neck. This thing now has 6 holes and it's not dead yet....so my uncle tells him to shoot it in the heart(I try and do this on the 1st time now) he does and it finally expired. He shot this poor 4pt under the butthole, above the front hoove, above the back hoove, once in the hind qtr, once in the neck once in the back spine and once in the heart, yes folks 7 times, he was not very proud of his marksmanship lol! But it was the only deer we ever got to shoot together and he got it mounted. Just a 4 pt. It was a great trophy to him and I love telling the story to whoever will listen. Trophy's are truly in the eye of the beholder.

After hauling deer out of the woods for friends this season,  I finally got to carry my own. A balmy -2 degree Thanksgiving morning with a beautiful frosty sunrise,
(https://i.postimg.cc/T5dtnjXb/1122180752.jpg) (https://postimg.cc/T5dtnjXb)
I got this doe and a nice 3pt. My buddy dragged him out with his atv.

(https://i.postimg.cc/gXRCgH5B/1122181021.jpg) (https://postimg.cc/gXRCgH5B)
It doesn't look it in the trailer picture, but the doe outweighed the buck by a good 30-35 pounds. A real horse.
The electric cart has been great for hunting. Nice and quiet.
I hauled out this buck and three other hunters in one trip through a 1/2 mile ride back to camp.

That's a great story dirtydeeds. Your story reminded me of my first deer...I shot it at least 5 times! I can't remember exactly how many times I shot that poor 7 pointer. But I got him and just like your gramps, I was very proud.
My father passed away long before I was of hunting age, I wish I'd had the kind of opportunity you've just had.
Well done and it's a hunt you guys can remember and talk and laugh about forever now.

I'm happy to see everyone had a pretty good season.  Strange weather this year around here. From -2 to almost 50 degrees in a few days. Time to get the .22 out to get even with some of those tree rats that harassed me while I was in the stands. But first, I've been ordered by SWMBO to clean the golf cart. I didn't think it was too bad.

Nice 552. That was the first gun I ever won in a raffle. I've taken a lot of squirrels, rabbits, woodchucks, raccoons, etc. with it over the years. It was perfect for rat shooting in the good old days of open dumps. It holds d**n near a half box of .22 shorts.

I let them simmer for about 45 minutes in some stock with veggies.

Then I picked them clean and ate it over rice.

The kids thought it was chicken. It is excellent meat.

Reeleyz,

I was wondering if you would share which model of Moultrie camera you are using?

If anyone else has any suggestions I would be interested in your thoughts as well. I don't have my own land, so they would need to be middle of the road in cost in case they get stolen.

Thanks

That is an s50i. It works well. I have a m20i and that one works fine too.

I really like Browning cams the best though. They take great pics and videos. They are great on batteries too.

It's called hunting not killing. As it's called fishing not catching. Always next time I have 3 weeks off last 2 weeks of bow/crossbow and 1 week of fun so I have no fear I'll put some deer on the ground

Looks like I've got a new deer processor in the family. My 6 year old grandson wanted to help Papa cut up a deer a friend gave me. He has always loved knives and has a bunch of his own. He worked at it like he's been doing it for years. All business and safe. He's bummed because there was only one to do.

A question, for you successful hunters. I've seen three different doe taken in the area in the last week. What strikes my as unusual is the length of hair and amount of fat on the deer. In my 51 seasons, I've never seen hair on deer as short as it was on them. Most hair is about a half inch with maybe an inch and a half on chest and belly. The one I cut up yesterday didn't have 5 pounds of fat. All three were 1 1/2 years old. They live surrounded by soybeans, corn, and good grazing.  would have been in trouble if we have a hard winter. I'm thinking we are going to have a fairly open winter. Last year there was much more hair and fat and a long winter.
Many years ago my farmer uncle told me he could tell how hard a winter we were going to have by the amount of hair on their udders. Some years he had to shave them and winter spanked us. Other years, open. I hope this holds true. Time will tell. What have you noticed?
Title: Re: NY Fisherman Hunting and BS'n Thread

The doe I shot the other day did not have much fat on her. However the deer around here don’t normally have much fat on them. There is no ag around here.

Older doe I killed last week in Tully loaded with fat but just getting into winter coat still. Both internal cavity fat and a thick saddle of fat. I'm still hearing cicada in the trees so it's not too cold yet but hair will thicken as the month goes on.

Good luck to all you crossbow hunters here. Having coffee getting ready to get in my truck in about 15 minutes for my first crossbow hunt. Vertical bow hunting has been out for several years due to shoulder injuries and arthritis, but I've been missing the quiet woods of bow season so I joined the dark side. This is my 51st deer season. It would be great to have a close encounter with the 170" class bruiser we've been seeing. Again good luck and be safe. DS.

Well, I was in my stand this morning ranging some landmarks when I caught movement to my right. Moving in at a fast walk was a very big bodied wide racked 5pt. He stopped right in front of my stand 11 yards out for a perfect shot. The only problem is the fact my crossbow is hanging in the tree. I put it there while I had the range finder out. He's looking up at me off and on. Almost had the bow off the hook as he looked away. A strap on my pack dropped and hit the stand. The old boy launched and cleared a few rows of corn. Oh well.
I'm guessing he's an old deer on his way down. Big and round. Maybe tonight.

Thanks guys.

He went about 40 yards. I hit a little far back but clipped both lungs and the liver. He bounded one time and walked off flicking his tail. Then he was out of site in some brush. I was not super confident on the shot and his reaction. I waited an hour to check the arrow. I could see him laying from there and he had gone down just out of site.

Nice buck Bruce. Looks like yesterday was a good day for a few of us. Had a doe blow twice couple hundred yards to my left. Knowing it didnt catch my scent trail or stream i kept an eye out.  5-10 mins later this dude comes strolling in.

Well, I finally broke the ice with the crossbow this morning. I took a small doe. A really small doe. I told myself I was taking the first deer that gave me a good shot. Small or not, it's going to taste better than tag soup. At least it didn't have spots. Still have 6 tags to fill this season. 8 with a couple transfer tags. I have a recipe for white hot dogs that calls for veal. I think this will do just fine.

bruce  baul  you both shot  some nice deer congrates !

 being older  I hate  shooting bucks the antlers  get tangled in  brush when you try dragging them and they are  to heavey to hang , old guys like me like to shoot little  deer that weigh less!! besides a  small target is harder to hit meaning it's a lot more sporting   :rotflol:

great  job guys  ^5


just like salmon  fishing I see big guy had to  find a dead one to bring home !!! :rotflol:

  Yeah i have one with just water in it out in the shed.  Wooks good.  Water is freezing now and i would be nervous to leave exposed antifreeze out. 
Back when i use to raise pheasants i made two out of full size metal garbage cans and no water needed... Use to take them out in the field.and dump it and do a little target practice with the 410...

So when it freezes the little buggers can ice skate themselves to death.
 :rotflol: :rotflol: :rotflol:


If you want to use antifreeze, use the pink stuff they use on boats and RV's.
It's eco friendly.
But it won't poison them, only drown them.

That's one great looking cat GS congratulations.  I grew up hunting and trapping in the Catskills and saw a handful of bobcats over the years there were always tracks but they're very elusive critters.   That's one of the biggest ones I've seen.  I never got one, missed one with my bow once.  I wouldn't shoot one now getting soft in my old age.  Hope you got a good taxidermist that will make a beautiful mount.  Absolutely a once in a lifetime opportunity.

It is sad. Opening morning here I heard 7 shots the first three hours. Two of them were mine. This is my 51st deer season. When I started hunting, you heard more shots before sunrise than you hear all season now. Every plot of woods was surrounded by hunters. It was nothing to hear a couple hundred shots opening day. Saturdays and holidays were just as busy. Sad. My grandson is 6 and wants to go hunting with Papa. Hopefully God will give me the health to be able to hunt together someday.

Yes, well said Trapper I think you echo the sentiment of most of us older hunters.  Hunting is a lot like fishing in many ways.  You start out trying to catch the most fish, then the biggest fish but in the end you realize the experience is the most important part.  I do respectfully disagree with your view on crossbows.  That may change in the future though, I've only turned my poundage down once so far! Everyone enjoy the season and be safe.

Glad you had a good season - things do change a bit as we age.  I totally agree with the premise,  and I can see the points made on both sides, and I also agree with what you are saying about the older and disabled people.  The only "problem" I see where I hunt - and I only bow hunt - is that the public land I hunt on might normally have 1 or 2 cars/hunters each day - as soon as cross bow season opened up there were 10-20 cars/hunters in the same area.  None of the hunters I saw were old or disabled - they were all between 25-40 years old (I'm 62) and looked to be in the peak of health.  Again - not a bad thing. However they way they hunted with the cross bows are the same way the majority of gun hunters that I see hunt - doing a lot of walking at all times of the day - making drives - and that affects the way I, and regular bow hunters, hunt in that area.  It probably doesn't help my point of view this year that I saw 2 bucks running around with bolts stuck in them - 1 8 pointer with 1 in the neck, one smaller buck stuck in the butt end. :-)  IMO you have to shoot at a pretty long distance to not have a bolt go thru a deer's neck.  Just my opinion and experiences - doesn't mean I'm correct  :-)

Very powerful trapper and guys.  I had to comment because I very much share your views.  I am presently getting a small taste of what it means to be disabled with two recent surgeries. I have not hunted this season, but I did sit in a stand with a camera. Just can’t lift a bow or crossbow.  You know what, I really enjoyed just sitting there. It seems that hunting is not always about killing.  Wish I stopped and took a deep breath and thought about that in my youth.

Post by: elrodalonzo on Nov 23, 2019, 06:37 AM
I think we go hunting or fishing most of the time without even admitting or realizing the real reason for doing it is to be outdoors in the woods or on the shore or in a boat. Success does add to the experience but is not always obtained or necessary.  On the crossbow debate I agree 100% with your reasons on disability/age. I do still feel there should be separate seasons.  I see ads for the new crossbows that claim they are capable of shooting 3 inch groups @100 yards.  If true this is more in line of the capabilities of a muzzle loader than a recurve/compound bow.  I think ads like that also encourage people to shoot at deer way past their actual effectiveness which has always given all bowhunters bad publicity. I have and will always respect all your opinions.

Crossbow should be allowed during regular bow season as it is in almost every other state that allows crossbows. And I dont care what they are claiming no crossbow is effectively shooting and killing a deer at 100 yards

I have noticed a drop off in the number of hunters this year too.

It seems like it is because of aging hunters. I am not sure the state can do much about that?

I had my 7 year old out this morning. We sat in a deer stand until he was almost frozen. Then we chased squirrels for a few hours and brought a couple home. We both had a great time (minus the frozen toes)

you know that's a good guestion and i'll tell you why .... wen hunting wit a bow or crossbow you can use either bow or archery tag .... it says your crossbow is legal during regular gun season ...I tend to think you can't use the special season tags during the regular season but I would call the regional office to make sure

I had my 7 year old out this morning. We sat in a deer stand until he was almost frozen. Then we chased squirrels for a few hours and brought a couple home. We both had a great time (minus the frozen toes)

I swear I'm going to buy a high power air gun to take deer hunting to shoot squirrels wile I deer hunt lol

you know that's a good guestion and i'll tell you why .... wen hunting wit a bow or crossbow you can use either bow or archery tag .... it says your crossbow is legal during regular gun season ...I tend to think you can't use the special season tags during the regular season but I would call the regional office to make sure
You can hunt during the regular (gun) season with a bow/crossbow/muzzleloader but cannot use the special season (archery/muzzleloader) tags.  You must use your regular season buck tag or DMP tag.

Getting an antibiotic because you were bit before actually being diagnosed is crazy and puts you in worse shape in the future that’s exactly what is not recommended by most doctors because of new strains of infections being immune to them and it takes up to a couple months for lyme to be detected

A single dose of
doxycycline can lower the risk of Lyme disease when:
• The tick bite occurred in a state where Lyme
disease incidence is high (Figure 1) or in an area
where >20% of ticks are infected with Borrelia
burgdorferi. Contact your local health department
for information about tick infection rates in
your area.
• The attached tick can be identified as an adult or
nymphal blacklegged tick (Figure 2).
• The estimated time of attachment is ≥36 hours
based on the degree of tick engorgement with
blood or likely time of exposure to the tick
(Figure 3).
• Prophylaxis can be started within 72 hours of
tick removal.
• The patient has no contraindication to doxycycline.



from the  CDC website  the link is  in a prior post  ....I suggest no one  take medical advice  here   call  your doctor  or  go to a  urgent care or ER LYME disease is nothing to fool around with  ......my post was merely meant to show I took all the precautions  and still was  biten   I  take  medical advice  from my doctor  and  go to a  urgent care  ..... I suggest everyone  do the same

I have been busy with home repairs, boiler replacement, babysitting, etc, to get out much. I have managed to fill 3 tags so far. Like others here I hunt mainly for meat for my daughter's family and us. I grind 2-300 pounds of burger along with roasts, etc. 10-11 deer does us good. It has been a great season for a few of my friends and they have all the deer they need. Got a call yesterday and lo and behold, I now have 4 more donor deer from them. Looks like I will be doing more bologna, summer sausage, hot dogs, and other lunch meats to mix things up.
Best part is, My projects will be wrapped up by Thanksgiving. Boiler will be in Wednesday, firewood is in, everything winterized. Now I can get out and live in the woods for a few weeks. Happy Thanksgiving to everyone.

"I suggest no one  take medical advice  here   call  your doctor  or  go to a  urgent care or ER LYME disease is nothing to fool around with  "  Good advice Trapper.  I take medical advice on here the same way I take early ice conditions reports (I spud, spud, spud myself), and NYS hunting and fishing regulations advice (I call the DEC myself)  :-).  No offense to anyone here, I know the majority are trying to be helpful, but for some things people really need to go to the correct sources of information.

Good work Raquettedacker. Yesterday, with my young helper, we put up 56 pounds of burger,  10 pounds of backstrap, and 6 pounds of darn near venison veal (I took a real young doe with the crossbow) for a sausage recipe I want to try. 4 more hanging to process tomorrow.

dacker and double  your really going to town!  i made  summer sausage and burger myself ;D

i wanted to first thank the calls of concern about my recent exposure to a hungry tick  so he is the up date  ...i am posting this  only to  help anyone that gets bite , my suggestion is to go to a doctor  ER or urgent care as soon as possiable   i did and i am glad i did!


(https://i.postimg.cc/MXGgn8s5/thumbnailbitev2.jpg) (https://postimg.cc/MXGgn8s5)

this was taken today  ...day after i took the one dose of doxycycline  i developed a rash around the bite  and the  deep red spot appeared ...the deep red spot at the bite spot i was told was from the ticks spit ...the rash was another story ....doctor placed me on a full antibotic regiment for 21 days  ...one week after that i will be given my first blood test for lymes disease ..... i will keep anyone interested posted ..... and i am practicing what i preach and doing exactly what the doctor tells me  ..... be sure you take the precautions and check for critters

Good advice Trapper. My brother has Lyme disease and it isn't fun. Messed up his walking so bad he was out of work for months until they got it under control so he could return to work. His legs are still messed up as he can't walk all that far but at least he's back on his feet. I don't wish that disease on anyone.

well get threw it wally ..

hey things I misunderstood or were misinformed about ..... I tough lymes was a American only disease wrong it is covering Europe asia Australia .....world wide

fossil records(I have no idea how they know this  )  shows the bacteria has been in ticks  for millions of years

The ticks are horrendous in my area. I hunted Letchworth a few times and each time had at least 3 on me one time I found 7. I don't think I got bit they were all on my clothes in the treestand except on in my hair on the way home. My buddy said the buck he shot in York had like 20 on it they were just all over his deer. To bad we couldn't crop dust the little bastards its the one thing I hate about deer hunting. Good luck trap and everyone

Man I must be super lucky - I do everything in tank tops, shorts and sandals from April thru October - even when I work my gardens, scout the woods/fields in the summer and hang my stands in September. I'm more in central NY around Waterville. My neighbor across the street says the same thing - he's covered with them when he turkey hunts in spring.  I wonder if I have something in me that they don't like or something - I've never even seen one on me.  Whatever it is I hope it continues.  Good luck to all that have been bit.

I wonder if a person's diet can have an affect. There is a garlic mixture that you can feed dogs that is supposed to be a natural tick and flee repellent.

tics are active even below zero if on a warm host say a deer can still jump to you
if deer are hanging skin on and body cools down they will go dormant till warms back up
i have skinned deer in warm weather and warm animal and seen them very active and have skinned a deer after it has hung in cold weather for few days and seen them bairly able to move

Finally got the meat pole emptied yesterday. This morning the wife and I did up 78 pounds of burger, 11 pounds of cube steak, and I made 60-1/3rd pound burgers. I love the patty maker. Also did up 5. 1-2 pound roasts to cure into ham later.

It was worth sitting in the lousy weather yesterday. I dropped a big doe with the smoke pole. When the wife and I finished cutting up the last bunch of deer yesterday, I realized I didn't set any meat aside for the smoker projects. This one came at a good time. Hopefully, maybe another tonight or tomorrow.

I hope everyone had a good season. Time to move on to tree rats, coyotes, and hopefully some ice fishing. My wife and I meet the bus to get the grandkids daily. they live out in the country a bit with a fair number of deer. All gun season I brought a gun because they come onto their land once in a while. Haven't seen a sign of a deer all season so I left the muzzle loader home. Of course at 4:00 I look out the window and there are 6 deer coming in about 80 yards out. Easy shot from the barn. Oh well, they will be there next year.

Looks like NY hunters may be able to use the new super narrow crossbows in the future.  Bills are in the works to remove width and max poundage restrictions. Also open all season to them.

I've been sniping squirrels off the feeder hoping to get the SOB that moved into my attic. I've acquired quite a few of the tough little buggers so last night I canned 6 pints of them. I've never done them before, but have eaten canned tree rat and enjoyed it. I just put a half teaspoon of minced garlic and maybe a teaspoon of thin sliced onion to the bottom then packed full of cut up bone in squirrel. I then added 1/2 teaspoon of salt and some black pepper and pressure canned. I had to try some when it was done. OMG was it good. Fall off the bone tender and full of flavor. My grandson finally gave it a try and gave me a big thumbs up. Grandma was disgusted at the idea of eating them. This morning, the little guy was having a cup of coffee with Papa and said he wanted squirrel for breakfast. Cool, the little monkey ate almost the whole jar. I love it. 6 years old and already hooked on fish and game.

Not today. We were at camp. I hunted behind the house opening morning and it was quiet. I’ll probably sneak out one morning again soon.

 http:// Two common causes of hair loss in deer are demodicosis (a form of mange usually caused by Demodex mites) and dermatophilosis (caused by the bacterium Dermatophilus congolensis). Other bacteria and parasites, such as lice, chiggers, and ticks, may cause varying degrees of hair loss.

I have a doctors note to use a draw lock on the bow this year. I bought one last month and had a friend that uses one set it up for me.  I like using it and it is allowing me to bow hunt. If anyone else has shoulder or other arm issues, I would suggest getting one.

Give me a call before you go in Ben. I wish you well.
I have tried pushing crossbow with a senator that has sponsored the bill.  The DEC was in favor of it but it never gets to the governors desk.  From what I hear, the Dec is not happy . Seems they have caught a lot of people using crossbows during archery anyway.
For people with a shoulder injury, crossbows might not be the answer anyway.  I know I could not lift mine last year even though I tried.  The draw lock attaches to any bow and is very light.  The company even makes a small vertical bow with a draw lock.  Looks like a vertical crossbow and as crazy as it sounds, is legal in NY.

believe it or  not  alot  of the  crossbow  resistance  comes  from the bow hunting community itself! a lot of bow hunters  don't under stand the fact the majority of hunters are getting older i  for one  can not   comfortably  shoot  my  bow  at  a high draw  weight any more .... we are losing hunters at a alarming amount  right now  anything that keeps more  people  hunting  and  generates  interest  and  money   to support hunting is a  good idea ..... a few  years ago i was hammered  on this site  for  hunting with a  crossbow ......now i  just go  to PA .....every  hunter  should  write  text  or  call thier  senator  and  the  governor  and  tell them  open up cross bow  hunting

you will love new license system , no lines i was in and out renewing my drivers license quickly cause you have an appointment went in at 9 was back on road at 9:15 told girl i loved it ,you do get temp taken going in and few questions but was only me and two others in there they will not let you in early to sit best dmv trip ive ever had
Yes, that was exactly my experience at the Oswego DMV.  A county Sheriff takes your temp with a scanner, another checks your appointment time, then you are in and out quickly.  I like the new system much better than the old system which was unpredictable.  You do hear some interesting stories from other customers!

The oak in my yard has no acorns. Last year it was a bumper crop, same up it the hills. I see more deer when they have to browse more and I have to climb less...h2l

Since this post they have begun falling in my yard. But so far not as many as years past.

“we'll teach him the most importat rule of hunting "if it's brown it's down"

A lot of accidents have happened with that philosophy.

How about positively identify your target and what’s beyond!

DEC announces record sales for big game licenses.

I see this as good and bad.

The good, well for those of us that hunt on or near state land, this should help make the deer more active. In addition, it’s an uptick in the number of hunters, which has been slowly deteriorating over the years.

The bad, in my eyes, is you’re going to see more hunters that are less seasoned, which could lead to an increase in accidents. I also wonder how the new hunters and born again hunters will respect the outdoors. We will see more trash being left in our beautiful woods?
Title: Re: NY Fisherman Hunting and BS'n Thread
Post by: reeleyz on Sep 10, 2020, 09:42 AM
Having more hunters will have it's issues but I think it is a good thing if it helps to keep the sport alive.

Here is another DEC proposal.

https://www.dos.ny.gov/info/register/2020/090920.pdf (https://www.dos.ny.gov/info/register/2020/090920.pdf)

Looks like they want to add 7 more days of late MZ and bow for Christmas week in the Southern Zone. I like the idea of being able to get my kids in the woods when they are on vacation.

And the high volume of license purchases could have contributed to the issues with issuing tags.

Purchased my license online today. Got both DMP selections but had to use a PP.

I found it strange that there was only a box to check for the back tag when I selected the address for shipping. I hope that I don’t encounter the issues people have been experiencing receiving their tags

You have to get it through the licensing process.... so either online or wherever you get your license.

We went out yesterday to put in a new stand and clear shooting lanes and safety check others. Got back to the trucks and I discovered my phone was missing. Crap! We had been to 9 different locations over maybe 8 miles of river bottom and woods. My golf cart batteries didn't have enough juice to do the entire route again.
My buddy gave me his phone and I took his wheeler to head to the last place I knew I had the phone. After a 3/4 mile ride, I go to make a call and his phone is locked. I go back, we laugh about it and both head out again. It took three stops, but finally we heard it ringing. Close call.

I'm hopeful I will be able to hunt soon. I have been having abdominal issues since last fall I had a gallbladder surgery botched horribly in a massive bile leak. That did a lot of damage inside me and they're still figuring out the insect extent of it. The latest is they found a Bile stone lodged in my common bile duct right next to my pancreatic duct there was pinching off my pancreatic duct and causing pancreatitis and cysts on the exterior of my pancreas. So for right now I have a drain in me and a 10 pound lift restriction. They got the stone out and they're hopeful it's going to resolve the issues I've been having on my way to the doctors now to see if they made any progress.

I am on my way back from a Colorado public land archery elk hunt. Man was that a blast. Had some close calls with bulls. On day 6 I was able to watch a small herd head to bed in the morning. I snuck in close in the afternoon and waited. Sure eough around 5 PM 2 cows and 2 calfs step out into a meadow at about 45 yards. I had to sneak around a down tree and out into the field a bit to get a shot. The big cow finally saw me and barked. She went about 5 yards and turned broadside looking at me at 40 yds. I drew and set my 40 pin behind her shoulder and touched it off. WIFF!!!! Not a sound! She took off untouched.

I stood there dumb founded.  :o :o

Then it dawned on me. The shot was so fast that I never checked my level!!!! I missed her by a mile.

Here is how steep the hill was. She was at the wood line. I could hear those loins sizzling in the pan already.

I saw a pile of mule deer. They are now on my hit list too. ;D

Some other pics but they do not do these mountains justice. Very rough country that is no joke. I will be back someday but I might have to bring the smoke pole next time to even the odds a bit!!!   ;D

1st off thank you Bruce and wow what a trip that must have been I can only imagine what it's like to be that close to one of those magnificent animals.

I had a test today called a sino gram where they inject ink into my drain and they can see if the original mass of cysts has dissipated at all. Unfortunately it has not. I have to follow up appointments Monday and Tuesday would surgeons to go over possible strategies. Very frustrating to say the least this drain has been on that site for 5 weeks. It goes without saying that having a tube sticking out of you is uncomfortable at best. Thank you everyone for the positive thoughts keep them coming and maybe they can come up with a strategy that will help me.

Reeleyz, great trip.  I should have done that when I was younger.
I did get out for the first time in two years opening day.  Within 30 minutes I had a button under me and he kept on looking behind him into the woods. But, as with most of my encounters with button bucks, he was alone.  That was it.  My two friends out with me had better encounters with nice bucks and does but no shots were taken.  Hope to get at it again tonight.

Gunnison area.

I am probably going back in 2 years myself after mule deer with the MZ.

I took my oldest on a hunt last night. I have been working with him using a saddle all summer. We had a great hunt last night and I got to shoot a doe with him there.

We had to back out because the shot was not great. I went back in this morning and found her about 100 yards from the shot.

You best check on that. I heard crossbows would NOT be allowed

If they extend muzzleloader season you will be able to use a crossbow because as far as New York state is concerned a crossbow is a muzzle loader as you nee a muzzle loader tag to use it so they will be up schitz creek on that one. If it's not a muzzle loader then I should need an archery tag to use it not a muzzle loader tag

In the Sept. issue of NYON they mentioned that crossbows would not be allowed. But in the last issue I received they said it would be allowed.

Just got an email from the NYS Snowmobile association. They are not happy with the dec trying to extend the season past Christmas.  Apparently, when you register the machine you also get a discount when you “join” a club.  That’s how they found me.  They had a form letter for us to sign and send to the dec.  The good news is the dummies said their were “ many” more letters written by hunters in favor of the extension.  I did what they said and sent an email to the dec. Too bad for them. It wasn’t exactly what they wanted  ;D ;D ;D. Also replied to the snowmobile association.  Basically told them they could eat snow.

Yeah I got the same email and I thought that might happen. I sent an email in support as well.

I really don't like to see a peeing match between these 2 groups though as I am part of both of them. I think the chances of rideable snow in most of the Southern Zone for the week of Christmas are low.

I don't see the problem with snowmobiles and hunters getting along. Every year there are less hunters and probably less snowmobilers due to declining interest and population.Are there a number of cases of hunters shooting snowmobilers?
Title: Re: NY Fisherman Hunting and BS'n Thread
Post by: mcully on Oct 19, 2020, 07:13 AM
It's not hunters shooting snowmobilers it's that many of the trails go over private land and if the private land owners want to hunt that week many won't allow the trails to open until after they are done using the land as they want. Can any of you trail riders say how many years you've had snow in the south that week lately? I know we get a good snow one in a while but seems to come and go in days.
Title: Re: NY Fisherman Hunting and BS'n Thread
Post by: Pequod1 on Oct 19, 2020, 08:43 AM
Exactly.  It seems we get an early snow and then it warms up and no good snowmobile snow until January.  Rochester has not had a white Christmas in a long time. 
Title: Re: NY Fisherman Hunting and BS'n Thread
Post by: Flukeman on Oct 19, 2020, 08:52 AM
It does not really have to do with the amount of snow. It has to do with the trail creation and maintenance. Many farmers do not hunt down by me. But many of them lease out their property to hunters. They are concerned about having both groups on property at same time and liability issues insurance wise if someone was to get hurt. With the sue happy world we are these days, landowners have a right to be nervous. They are concerned because the whole thing is being dropped on them without the usual process and time-line. Now its last minute conversations with all parties involved and everyone stands to lose out because they are busy enough and don't want to be bothered with a hassle.

I do both, so it is a win - win for me, unless landowners say screw it and tell their leases they are done at regular time of year. And then tell snowmobiles forget it. Then we all lose out on something.

Wow mcully, that was devoured.  I usually find the tail end eaten out but not the entire deer like that one.  That’s crazy.. I have a question concerning taking your deer out if the yotes started chewing on it. Would it be safe to process, or are there any disease concerns I should be aware of. So far, I have been lucky, but many other guys I know have had this decision to make.

Congrats on the deer. As a meat hunter, I wouldn't pass that fine eating. Can't wait for Saturday to break out the crossbow.

Thank you. I used my draw lock adapter on my bow for him. Turned my bow into a vertical cross bow.  It’s a shame that in NY you can’t use a crossbow with the handicapped permit.  Doesn’t make sense.

Congrats to all you successful hunters. I'm getting excited about finally getting out Saturday for the first time. Been touch and go for this season. Been doing a complete floor to ceiling remodel of the bathroom and the house is a mess. But that went online a couple days ago so cleanup can start. Then two weeks ago, I got a blood clot in my left leg. That is good now. My knees are also on the way out too, but the golf cart has new mud tires  and it's charged and ready to go. I really need some time in a quiet woods.

On my way to a Dr. appt this morning, I got to watch an eagle family on a deer carcass for a bit. Too cool, they were only 50 yards from the road. Two adults and three juveniles. Tried to get a picture tire without much luck. Too skittish.

Still looking for meat, but I had a nice day to sit yesterday. Got a stand in a 100 yard square patch of woods bordered by harvested corn on one side, soybeans on the other with the Genesee river at my back. Lots of sign, but no shots yet.
Still fun to be out.

It is been really quiet for me here at home Bobby. The deer I have gotten were in the SZ. Finally saw a couple small bucks this week with the rifle. One spike on Tuesday that was probably the smallest legal buck I have ever seen. Cameras are deader than dead here. Very strange year.

I have been trying to get my sister in law her first deer. First 2 sits we saw nothing. Finally last night we saw 2 doe but not quite close enough for her. She has my doe tag. I was surprised at how excited I got when those doe came in, you would have thought it was a 10 point.

I heard the past few days in the SZ were on fire in one spot that I hunt. They will be in trouble tomorrow!

Nice job Scout!

Nice Scout!! I guess I’m not the only one experiencing the lack of deer sightings then. I hear you Bruce. When I finally saw a doe in the northern zone I was all jacked up lol. I guess we will just chalk it up to the curse of 2020...I’m not giving up yet though! Good luck the rest of the season guys!

Just finished helping him get the Hyde off. Massive deer. Only an 8 point but well over 200lbs. It’ll cool overnight and we’ll cut it up tomorrow or the next day. Weather is perfect to wait a bit.

This is the neighbor I helped when he had dental surgery. First thing he did was cut out the tenderloins and give them to me. A good friend for sure. I haven’t been without venison since I met him.

I’ll tel you what else hunting is about....friendship.

I helped my neighbor butcher his massive deer this afternoon. It was nice and cool and we got more meat off that buck than I’ve ever seen off any deer. The neck alone weighed 25 lb....maybe more.   He gifted me with two of the 6 blackstrap  chunks, 4” dia x 12” long ( biggest I’ve ever seen) , a few packages of steaks, the tenderloins and several packages out nicely trimmed stew meat.

We sat at my house and had a cocktail when we were done. A day well spent in friendship. Hope he gets a couple more.

Well we had a fun weekend, saw a lot of deer. Everyone in our crew saw bucks, a few were passed and a few narrowly escaped!

I did get a coyote.

It means more to me than the kill, that is for sure. It is a “family tradition” for us.

My wife and I got to watch a family of eagles Saturday morning. Two adults and two juveniles. You can see a huge nest in the woods now that the leaves are gone. The great birds are adapting to civilization well. There are regular sightings here.
My wife saw this on facebook. Very creative idea.

He's right - the barred owl is a pretty good sized bird.  The one I saw was obvious that it wasn't a great horned owl but it was pretty big.

You are correct - didn't hear him come in and he was only 20 yds or so away - didn't hear him leave either.  He flew to another branch a little closer, then next time I looked over he was gone.  Every once in a while when he looked away I did a little mouse squeak and his head would whip around ....

We did the deer yesterday. My helper wanted to skin the deer this year. He did a pretty good job. I pulled, he cut.  I love working with him. He never shuts up, always asking questions about various things. We finally got things boned out and ready to grind. Made 54 pounds of burger.

Read over the deer management plan. Interesting possible changes. 1/2 hour before sunrise start and 1/2 hour after sunset end. "Holiday season" between Christmas and new years. Heres the one I don't get - September gun hunt for deer in southern zone in select DMU's.  Nothing about crossbow. So, guns in September are being discussed but crossbows are not?

It seems like they can’t get people to shoot enough deer to meet their quota. Adding on more seasons probably won’t make much if any difference in the deer take.
Title: Re: NY Fisherman Hunting and BS'n Thread
Post by: Doubles Shooter on Dec 03, 2020, 06:02 AM
I think it would be more effective if the DEC could work with land owners to find a way to open more land to hunting than to have longer seasons. Hunting access is a big problem for many.

It’s been an up and down first 2 weeks of SZ gun season for me.

Last Monday I hit this buck. It was 110 yard shot. I tracked it Monday afternoon and Tuesday as far as I could with very little blood and no beds. 3 days later the neighbor found the buck. He had gone 3/4 of a mile. I hit him very low just behind the front shoulder and must have done just enough damage to kill him eventually.

I was not able to salvage any meat. I notched my tag on him. I was very disappointed in myself.

2 nights ago I was able to harvest this doe. Much closer shot right through the heart.

That's a bummer with the buck. At least you know what happened to him and you have a nice rack. And some fine eating.

Sorry about the buck Reeleyz, it can happen.  Kudos to you for punching your buck tag, many would not do that.  And congratulations on the doe, I hope to find one soon.

I earlier posted that I read the DEC 10 yr plan and that I did not see anything dealing with crossbows.  I guess I just scanned it too fast because this is in the plan and I missed it. Looks like the DEC wants to take control of this issue and get it out of the hands of our legislators.

d**n Bruce. Feel for you brother. We have all been or will be there someday. Congrats on the doe! I’m still getting after it. Passed on a bunch of smaller bucks with the bow and almost killed a big one with the bow and had a good encounter with a decent northern zone buck with the muzzleloader but couldn’t get a shot. Pulled an all day sit Wednesday in the south and didn’t see one deer for 11 hours of hunting. I did get to hear and feel that sonic boom from that meteor though! I was hoping it would scare some deer my way lol.

Congrats to the young hunter. We had a similar thing happen to our gang 4 years ago. We had a 170"+ 10 point on our land. Three of us had close encounters during bow season, but not close enough. OK, we figured someone would get him gun season. Yep! He crossed the river looking for love and got shot near 5 miles away. Tough break, but more are growing every day.

Couldn't agree more - social media is awful now.  Same thing applies with fishing - in particular ice fishing on small lakes.  Someone does well and tells the world, then is surprised when there are 10 times more people fishing there the next day and the place is fished out.  Loose lips not only sink ships, they ruin hunting and fishing spots.

Even a bigger reason for a much bigger smile. He hit the lottery and looks like he wants to give the ticket back.
As long as it was legally taken more power to him. Sounds like any of the guys around could have or should have approached that elderly woman at some point and locked it up. It really hurts though seeing a deer you have history with laying on the ground in front of a guy.
Couple guys posted a big buck on fakebook few years back and a friend sent me the pic. Clearly sitting right in front of a group of posted signs where three properties I hunt come together and nobody knew who the heck these guys were. They weren't allowed to keep that buck long hope they liked the pic. You could read the posted signs in the background, Duh

Fun season for sure with all deer taken with the bow.
Enjoy the south. Surf fishing is always fun. Plenty of specks too just a little different than standing on hard water.

I was listening to a podcast today that talked about fangs on whitetail. Their studies found 1%-4% of deer had fangs.

Cuomo’s proposed budget has some possible hunting changes.

Believe that last years doe tags expired on August 31 just like the hunting licenses do. So you would need new tags for this special hunt.

I like the original southern bow date of 10/15 better than the 10/1 date too .... don't get me started on the ticks ... early in July I had the China virus and lyme disease at the same time, with a case of Bell's Palsy thrown in as a result of having both of those things.  Fortunately none of the symptoms were severe and I'm back to normal now (well, as normal as I can be anyway - haha).  The fatigue was awful though .....

Post by: FrankM on Sep 03, 2021, 08:38 AM
September is way too early and way too warm to start shooting deer. I typically wait till the weekend around 10/15 to start bowhunting for that reason. If it helps entice young people to start hunting I guess its OK but I'm going to continue to wait till mid-Oct before I start. You have to be careful handling deer meat when its 70° or 80°.

Nothing I liked better than hunting squirrels. Have my faithful Marlin 69A and my Savage 20ga. Side by side. I always liked late winter after deer this season was over. Give me a warm winter day and a 22 and I’m happy. Haven’t done it in years but, I was thinking that since I have a lifetime sportsman license I might just venture out this winter.

Squirrel stew and fly tying materials…..both really good.

I disagree on a couple things ticks are not at highest levels of season that is spring and fall summer is a slower time for them I rarely get a tick on me in summer and i am in thick stuff all year also people will shoot fawns during any open season and have a legal right to do so if they have the tags the paid for i do not but do not question any legal deer someone else takes legally sorry jmo

Adult ticks, which are approximately the size of sesame seeds, are most active from March to mid-May and from mid-August to November. Both nymphs and adults can transmit Lyme disease. Ticks can be active any time the temperature is above freezing

no one is  questoning a "legally taken deer"  fact  deer  fawns nurse  between  2 to 3 months   early  set.  some fawns  will still be nursing ......they  shoot  the  de the fawn  has  no where t nurse ...and  yes  some  bucks  will be  shoot many n accident because   hunters won't be able to see horns....
the truth all of this is simply opinions ...the great state of New York made it's decision without even asking the  general hunting public......that is really the scary part ,and everyone should be  upset about
Title: Re: NY Fisherman Hunting and BS'n Thread
Post by: jperch on Sep 05, 2021, 06:27 AM
I think some fawns nurse well into archery season, even gun season because I have seen it.  I have also seen mom kick her fawns away when they tried to nurse, probably telling them to find their own dinner.  I hunt 3 different units, only one is allowing the early hunt, "the farm" in 8F.  It's overrun with deer.  The DEC gives out more permits for this area than the public wants.  The "problem", from the DEC point of view, is that their management objectives are not being met with DMP, DMAP permits.  Part of this is due to the fact that most of this land is private with a lot of agriculture.  By the way Trap, the DEC did seek public input, there was the usual public comment period that was pretty widely publicized.  I received several emails from DEC asking my input, which I gave.  The comment period closed sometime in early August, I believe.  I don't know if DEC made the results of the survey public.  I doubt I will hunt the early period, there is work and I don't much like the heat and skeeters.  We always try to put 2 or 3 adult deer in the freezer and don't care much about antlers.  By the way, I wonder if some does are taken early if that will make the rut more active as bucks may have to look harder for a date.

Title: Re: NY Fisherman Hunting and BS'n Thread
Post by: jperch on Sep 05, 2021, 08:32 AM
Probably so, I'm only familiar with my area of 8F near Lake O.  It is incredible deer habitat, they have everything they need.  There is plenty of food, apple orchards and row crops.  Ample forested areas and swampy thick briar patches that make ideal escape cover.  I used to travel south of Rochester, Naples area to hunt with family.  I gave up hunting during gun season on state land because it was unpleasant with the deer drives going on.  I know the sound of deer slugs whistling over my head.  I still archery hunt with my family there.  But the truth of the matter is there are more and bigger deer on our farm than where my family hunts.  I think those of us who live in NY are blessed with the opportunities we have for hunting and fishing.  The deer hunting is better now than it was when I was a kid, that is for sure.

I hunted chucks for many years on my good friend’s farm in Wyoming County. The instructions were to dispatch any cat without a collar. They had a pretty bad rabies problem and I was willing to oblige.

My25-06 could reach out and touch them. The farmers would get together and visit all the farms on feral cat hunts to help slow the spread. The kids would chase the cats out of the barns and the guys would tend to the fleeing felines.

Guess it's more of a social event for me, will be nice to get out and sit in the woods and maybe read a book or take  some pictures maybe even a nap.

Pull the trigger if you see one they are better than deer to eat

My buds daughter shot one a couple of years back and it was delicious. They took it to a butcher only because it was hot out, and he showed them how to look for trichinosis. With that in mind they didn't overcook it. I did decide to shoot if I had a slam dunk opportunity. The neighboring property shot one the first hour and the woods went very quiet after that. Saw 10 deer Sunday morning all does and fawns, had one doe walk past the primitive box blind at 10 yards feeding on black cherries. Great to get out for sure.

another mistake i  found in the  new york hunting regulations .....

You may hunt waterfowl with a firearm or bow, over water, within 500 feet of a dwelling or public structure as long as neither are within 500 feet (for a firearm) or 150 feet (for a bow) in the direction you are shooting. You may not hunt waterfowl with a crossbow.



who  ever  wrote  this  needs a  new job or a new  proof reader .....we all know  you can't hunt waterfowl with a bow

Trap this is definately a good time to catch mister whiskers  Any time the bugs aren't looking to eat you alive, fly down your throat , or build a nest in your ears is a good time   The lake is much quieter this time of year also   Will let you all know how I do      Note:  I'm still trying to figure out how to post a photo     I'm just a little slow with tecnology   and spelling

I was rationed bullets as well when I was a kid. Mom would go to “town” for groceries and I’d work on her to stop at the Western Auto to buy me a couple boxes of 22 shorts.. From  there I was pretty much on my own with a single shot Winchester 67.

It’s not political. It’s a change in generational philosophy. Everyone sites politics placing one side against the other. BS! Total BS!

No one in any office has a say in how I think and feel. I act as I believe is natural….and the way I was taught by my Mom and Dad. My kids( not kids any more) have the same independent philosophy.

Think for yourself.

KP it's  not just the idiot politicians it's the idiots that vote for these  people, times  have changed  when our fathers  slide that gun over to us it  was a  father teaching his son, now days it's seen as child abuse  or some  other BS crime by a liberal society, if you don't believe that there are two  very different sides ...not just opposing each other for political power  but for our social structure and the very freedom we so love ,your living with your head buried in sand or your completely brain washed ....  and  for  shells i had to use my money i earned delivering
 papers  helping at the farm or  cleaning the  barber shop to buy my  shells ......another thing  pop taught me ...independence ...............take your children hunting don't give the  state a chance to raise your children.....

Title: Re: NY Fisherman Hunting and BS'n Thread
Post by: Raquettedacker on Oct 30, 2021, 06:49 AM
The region has been hit particularly hard by an outbreak of epizootic hemorrhagic disease (EHD), and it’s believed to have killed off more than 700 deer.

According to the New York Department of Environmental Conservation recently confirmed a large EHD outbreak across 7 counties, including Columbia, Dutchess, Greene, Nassau, Oswego, Suffolk, and Ulste. The outbreak is considered to have potentially made its way into 9 additional counties as well, including Albany, Jefferson, Oneida, Orange, Putnam, Rensselaer, Rockland, Sullivan, and Westchester.
 Unfortunately, these are some of the very best deer hunting counties in the state. While EHD does not present a danger to humans, the number of deer killed by the outbreak is considerable and could impact the number of deer that hunters see in the woods this fall.

The disease is not spread from deer to deer, but rather it is transmitted by biting midges, bugs so tiny they are seemingly invisible. Humans cannot be infected by midge bites, nor can they transmit the disease from deer.

Once a deer is infected by midge bites, they typically perish within 36 hours. EHD is most common in late summer and early fall when the midges are most abundant; however, this particular outbreak is considered to be notably brutal in terms of the number of deer impacted. The first good hard frost of the year typically kills off the midges and erases the threat for EHD outbreaks.

Infected deer will display symptoms that include fever, hemorrhage in muscles or organs, and swelling of the head, neck, tongue, and lips. The animals may appear lame or dehydrated, and EHD-infected deer often go to water sources and die nearby.

 EHD usually occurs somewhat sporadically in the state, but this outbreak is particularly bad. The disease is more common in the southern U.S., and as a result, some regional deer herds have developed an immunity to the midges.

That is not the case in New York, however, and deer in the Empire State are believed to have no immunity to the disease. The outbreak is not considered to be a threat to the overall health of New York’s deer herd at large, but there may be noticeably fewer deer on the landscape in the counties impacted by the recent surge in EHD infections.

The disease was first documented in New York in 2007, and the state’s worst outbreak came just last year when over 1,500 deer died from EHD infections in Putnam and Orange counties alone.

The Department of Environmental Conservation is asking people who witness sick or dead deer to report them to their agency through a new online form devoted specifically to this issue.

For more information on monitoring EHD outbreaks, check out this video from the National Deer Association.

Thanks Dom. I have heard very little about what’s going on in our state regarding EHD.  The only thing I’ve seen or read was an article in the New York Outdoor News. Other than that my info has just been from talking with other hunters.

Some people like to blow this up and say it’s devastating to the deer population.  Will hurt small areas for a season but that’s it..
  If you compare this to deer
vehicle accidents 10 times more deer die in the road….   
If they would just cross where the road crew puts up crossing signs there would be way more deer….     ;) ;)     ;D ;D ;D

I talked to an ECO last week. He said he had 1 confirmed case of EHD anywhere near here on CR 37.

I have not seen any issues here.

I agree with Dom, just a small bump in the road in most places.

again i'll get   a thread locked  or my post will disappear ...happens  when you have a  different opinion and  even  show the  facts ......  last year we  lost  app. 1500 deer to  EHD  this  year   by  sept17th  we were ate  700  in  new  counties ....we  would have  taken the hit  accept for the  fact i average  frost (oswego county) is  oct 7th and that kills the  midgets....... this  year  it  didn't happen  so it's  been  spreading a  extra 2 to 3  weeks......

is  it a  big  deal ......is to  me  is to Cornell

The state should order  a size and bag limit and put it  in affect immediately.
 One deer per hunter. 8pt or bigger and only one per season..
Otherwise there won’t be ANY deer left in NY.       :o :o    ;)

Trapp your much better at research and math than I am ..
But if you add up the total of deer and the amount that tested positive there’s less than 70 positive…
 No wonder my season has been so bad so far.  Next year is going to be terrible..

 Cornell is  not testing  every deer they find or are reported the  two i found  were  not tested  i  merely reported them ....i  believe the  numbers  are  2008   as of last  Cornell  posted  ....to  me that is a  big deal knowing  a lot of  deer  are  not reported  and the  fact  many will never be found ,  will  it  destroy  our deer  population   i  doubt that but if  your in a  area  with a  high case  level it's  going to hurt your hunting.....it may not be  as important as  a dead show  but i think it's  pretty important to most  sportsmen ...  and  my research  was  merely  googling    how  many deer  died  from  EHD in  new york and  the  numbers  are  Cornell's ..........to make  this  out  to be  a  joke is in my opinion  unsportsman like , i  never would have  expected that of you  .........

No jokes being made..
 Not sure what it has to do with a Dead Show?
 But I bet a lot more people died in NYS this year from COVID  than deer from EHD..
 And if you think I’m unsportsmanlike that’s fine.   We all have opinions about others.   That’s what makes the world go round buddy..

well i started  with a  recurve  and that  killed   a few  deer  many years  ago then i got a  oneida  eagle  which i  still own and hunted with it last year  now  a  diamond  by bow tec   the 80%  let off is  great  but  i have a deer in the freezer  so i like  hunting with the  recurve ......simple  i have  shot a  few  deer  with this one but it's  45#  and the  limits  my  distance i  don't like  hurting  a deer......it's  a lot of  fun  i like  my flint lock too

I think most guys our age have a history that starts with a recurve   My first bow deer came with a bear Kodiak  That bow is still around some where with a few decades of dust on it  The idea of returning to my roots is interesting but age as well as injuries prohibit such an adventure  An 80% let off mathews set at 50 lb is pushing my limits but I'm still out there doin it and loving every minute  Better go- I have to get ready for the afternoon sit

i'm suffering  from tennis  elbow  now  but i'm good  for a  shot or two ....the  eagle  i loved  but in all honesty the  left off was  only about 50%  and  the  bow  broke  in the  last  quarter of  draw  ....this  new  bow is  sweet....i was  all in the  bull  at 20  as  soon as i set the  sight ......the recurve  i draw i shoot  there is  no holding back  as  fred  bear was a very fast shooter ....i do shoot the  recurve  instinctive so the  bow  fits  feels  right and  it works  for  me  like  throwing snow  balls as a  kid

Shot my first deer in 1980 in my 7th year of bow hunting with a bear re-curve - it was a 6 pointer that never bled a drop except where I hit it with my cedar arrow.  My dad kept circling and circling and eventually found him about 70 yds away.  It was on state land and there was a guy that was breaking my b@lls all year by putting his portable tree stand about 20 yards from where my permanent one was.  He used a LOT of skunk scent every time out - he reeked.  When I got down I asked him if he saw which way it ran (it was in his direction) - he said "what deer".  After my dad found him I went back to my tree stand to get something I left there and the guy asked me "Did you find your deer ?"  I said "What deer ?" and walked away.  J@ckass.   :D :D :D

Mine was a big fat doe down near Schenevus   I was on the ground walking a ridge when she stood up 20 yds downhill  All the practice in the world couldn't prepare me for that loud CRACK when that bear razer head met the shoulder blade  She bounced about on the ground bawling the whole time  Scared me half to death !  The next two arrows missed and then shaking like leaf I managed to dispatch her with my last one.   Later my buddy said, what was that god awful noise ?   That was a lifetime ago

Post by: Badbrad2186 on Oct 31, 2021, 07:12 PM
My first see was a 165lbs doe. She came in from the right of me behind a tree that had fallen down but didn't die so branches grow straight up and down I drew back well she was behind it and when she stepped out broad side at 15 yards i let that arrow fly. Double lunged her she sent 15-25 yards and piled up. My 9 year old is deadly with the 22 hits anything with in a hundred yards. He will be a good Hunter once old enough but he will be in the woods opening day this year with me

Yes you are right about that. Kansas is where I went for 8 years. But this year the landowner leased the farm out and so I don't have a place to hunt out there now.
It was a very good deal before, just buy a tag and go. They put me up and fed me. I would leave a big tip, but I guess a lease pays more.
It was fun while it lasted

Saw a first tonite  As I was waiting for the Mrs. to come out of the woods, (yea she's a bowhunter too) a buck and doe appeared across the field .  The body language that she exhibited was like nothing I had seen before.  After several minutes of him with his nose in the business end, he mounted her and planted next years seed.  At the very same time, my wife was watching another buck chasing several does in and out of a corn field.   It's happening guys  Get out there.

I like ground venison for chili, meatballs, meatloaf, stroganoff, stuffed peppers, golobki etc.
I usually make butterfly steaks out of backstraps & tenderloins. Ground & stew out of the rest.
You just can't beat a good old greasy beef hamburger on the grill. Beef grease is delicious. The fat on a ribeye is like candy.

27 lbs of venison with 6lbs pork fat with a 8oz bag of seasoning I get from runnings  this is becoming my almost favorite venison meal  whether it be burgers, meat loaf, tacos or whatever. Now the tenderloins are something special and must be treated as such Nothing beats a good loin treated with respect

I often add some finely diced onion, shredded cheese of choice, a couple dashes of worsty sauce.  The onion adds moisture and flavor, the cheese adds flavor and helps form the patties.  Yum.

1 egg
Flatten out venison in bowl and just sprinkle enough Italian bread crumbs over meat to slightly cover.. a good pinch of salt .. pepper .. 3 good dashes of garlic.. chopped up half onion... mix together and make burgers..
NOBODY will say... this is venison!!!!

20% added beef fat by weight makes a great burger. Much leaner than the so called 80/20 mix at the store. You don't have to drain a quarter cup of melted fat when you cook it.

Have you ever tried pork fat instead? My in-laws had a pig butchered and I have 20 lbs. of lard.

 Yes it works great. 
I use apple smoked bacon in mine.  Not a lot just enough to to hold it together and so it don’t dry out.
 When I cook my burgers on the grill I put a big slice of onion on top and wrap each in foil and slow cook them and than open and brown them a little..

Whats everybody's take on the effect of the moon on deer hunting? I've heard its a big factor, I've heard its just an old wives tale. I've heard they move more at night and less during the day on a full moon, I've heard people swear by hunting the day after the full moon.

The full moon has a long eclipse this Friday morning, supposed to be cloudy though.

Lots of studies on the moon.
A deer sees in shades.  When the moon is full at night most head to open fields.  The moon will leave shadows in the woods from the trees. 
 A couple days before and after a new moon is the best.

I'm with you. I hunt when I can. The moon has no effect on my hunting. When a nice deer presents a clean shot I take it. I have kept a detailed record of all my hunts for over 30 years and have been unable to establish any definite moon patterns.  I shoot them when they come.

Post by: reeleyz on Nov 17, 2021, 04:01 PM
Same here. I have kept a log since I was 17 (28 seasons). I went through it about 5 years ago and checked the moon phases at the times I saw good rutting action. Guess what, it was all over the place. No correlation at all.

The deer might move a little more at night during a full moon but like greensider said, one hot doe throws it all out the window.

A good cold front has more affect than the moon phase in my opinion.

Hunt when you can and as much as you can.

I've never kept any kind of log except for the dec sighting log.  I have however kept every tag I've ever made out since 1972  More deer have been taken Nov 2nd thru the 8th Than any other period of same number of days.  This includes archery in the south as well as rifle season in the north.  So hunt whenever you can but be there when November rolls around.

She let this fat 4pt slip by this afternoon and then he tried to do it again an hour later. She said nope, no way not this time.  That's 1 for me with the bow and 1 for her with the gun.  We're done.  Time to go ice fishing

That's a NICE buck Mac.  You can't beat a 870.  (Well you can but it will still work.)  I see you had a saddle scope mount.  My dad bought my 870 for me when I was 16, over 50 years ago.  Works as good as new.  It's the Wingmaster version with now a cantileaver mounted scope, one of the "bull barrels" that I don't think are made anymore.  It shoots well and I prefer it over a rifle in heavy cover.  Congratulations to your son!

I believe so.
I’d have to dig up the old photos to check.  But I just sat down for a few minutes to watch some football before finishing getting dinner prepared.
It was new in the box but probably a leftover from years past.
My great uncle took me to an estate sale that had it for sale.  I got it for $75!!!

You stole it for 75.00. I paid either 200 or 225 for my used 870 in 1983

There has been a lot of deer shot with the 870.
I shot maybe 25-30 and Chris has shot way more than me.
That gun has probably taken 60+ deer.

Nice pics everyone. Well I finally filled a tag after a bunch of awesome encounters with a few giants with no shot opportunities and a bunch of passed smaller bucks including this buck during the archery season. An awesome November this year to be in the woods. Lots of chasing and saw a big 8 point breed a doe last evening of bow. Tuesday morning I closed the deal on a small 7 pointer with my muzzleloader at 90 yards….broke his heart 😜

My grandson was in his glory yesterday. He loves processing deer. He did probably 75% of the skinning and butchering. At 8 years old, He is doing great. He said " this is satisfying Papa. I really like doing this".

We got 62 pounds of 80/20 venison/beef fat burger out of that deer.
If anybody has young helpers, post some action shots. I love seeing young people enjoying the sport.

Nice!
I used to love pheasant hunting back in the 60's and 70's.
Then they disapeared around here.
Last time I saw a pheasant was down near the Skyway about 10-12 yrs ago.
I cannot remember the last time I have heard one cackle.

Just had 5 does and fawns cross behind my house this morning. They seemed pretty nervous, at this point they've been harassed pretty hard. Good to see some seed left after months of hunting pressure. To those still going out for the new extended season good luck! For me it's time to switch gears and pull out the ice fishing gear.

When I was in 10th grade our science teacher held classes on gun safety and responsibility . He took a few of us out hunting for partridge, wood cock and pheasant. We had written permission from home and school to bring our shotguns & shells (mine was a stevens single 12ga) on the bus and we put them in a locked closet in his classroom. After the hunt, we cleaned the birds and a couple of dads took us home. GREAT MEMORIES and nobody was hurt.
Today you would be on the nightly news and the adults would be locked up.

Back in the 70's a friend and myself, as teenagers, went to the GE in Schenectady to put in job applications.  In the back seat were our shotguns to do some small game hunting on the way home. We found a note on our windshield to contact so & so to get our guns back. (And the car was locked) We went to see this person and got interrogated as if we were terrorists from Iran. Thought we were going to jail.
 All this political hoopla about guns is not new, it's just getting much worse.

I took my hunter ed course from one of my high school teachers in 1970.  His name was Mr Sinowski, he has passed.  It was given on weekends and he brought his personal firearms into school.  After getting certified we went hunting for rabbits and grouse with another teacher and student.  He hunted with a single shot 10 gauge, carrying an extra shell in his mouth!  We also went fishing together on Seneca Lake.  Great times and great memories.  Times sure have changed.

I'm in the mushroom & squirrel mode right now. Made three good finds of chickens this week and am hoping for the hens to show soon. A little rain coming might wake them up and if there's time, I'll be tending to some tree stands. I've killed two bears and although I'll take another if given the chance, I probably won't put in an effort due to the travel required. We just don't have any in my locale.

Got in at daybreak this morning and was all set up hoping my wife would get a shot it was her first big game hunt as she just got her license at 730 another hunter came walking by I whistled to him he pointed past us and kept walking by right in front of us we relocated for a while but couldn't do much walking due to wife dealing with a bad ankle right now it was really awesome having her in the woods with me actually hunting

I dont hunt but let a buddy throw a feeder (in CT where it's legal) and a treestand on my property.  So far havent seen any decent deer come by.  Just black bears and turkeys.  Good luck this season fellas.

I was blessed to shoot an elk on the second day of the CO muzzleloader season. I hit her at sunset and decided to back out and track her in the morning. She didn’t go far.

It took me all day to quarter her, debone the meat, and pack it down to a creek to hang and cool.

They picked up the meat the next day.

After that it rained for about 48 hours! The clouds were socked in.

After the rain I was able to chase some grouse.

I knew you were going to ask that! I did not bring it back becuase I didn't want to deal with NY rules with brain matter and so on...

I did grab the ivories.

Started processing it last night. The deboned front shoulder, half the neck, and 1 loin together weighed 42 pounds.   ;D

Reminds me of a day on Squam Lake in NH some years ago. While going across the lake we spotted something unusual and once we go close enough it was a Bull Moose swiming to an island. We followed at a good distance and watched him climb onto the island and chow down on blueberries.
No pictures just  memories.
Thanks for the picture.

This a.m... for came in same spot.. drew back on her and she sensed movement and darted off...
15 min later... a buck showed up SAME TRAIL.. he ended up 7 yards from blind...
After 2 min (I recorded the whole thing) boy was able to draw back.. and smoked this guy... 13 years old.. not a SMASHER.. but a hell of a buck for first deer and first deer with a bow AND from the ground WITH A BOW
I could be happier... his excitement after he shot was unmatchable

I'm bummed New York didn't do anything about letting kids and old cripples like me use crossbows all archery season this year. Still have to wait for the last two weeks. I was against crossbows when I could shoot my vertical bow. To me, archery was about making the draw and shot undetected when the deer was close enough to hear him chewing acorns and still is. Old age, arthritis, nerve problems in my left arm have ended that for me. I didn't hunt for 5 years but I got missing being in the fall woods so I went to the Dark side and bought a used crossbow from a friend a few years ago. It sucked having to wait till the last two weeks of archery season, but at least i was in the woods again. I got excited last year when they almost allowed all season hunting but they pulled the rug out from under us.
  I would still prefer my vertical bow, but any way to get out works for me. Any other crossbow shooters out there?

Deer all over the golf course. They pay no attention to us at all. Had to chase one off a tee the other day so I could mow it.

All you’d need to hunt these critters is an apple and a hammer.

I have a golf course 1/4 mile up the road from me. See deer on it a lot . I always wonder how many toxins they have in them from the herbicide and fertilizer?
 Because those deer come down in my woods..

Post by: mcully on Oct 06, 2022, 06:52 AM
Some states are posting warnings and NO eating of deer in areas found to have "forever chemicals" in venison. Not sure how they do the sampling, but the liver would be the primary do not eat. Is it like the fish samples where they grind up the entire fish? Either way sad to see.
Title: Re: NY Fisherman Hunting and BS'n Thread
Post by: rgfixit on Oct 06, 2022, 08:10 AM
They don’t eat grass Dom. They browse leaves, buds, apples, crab apples the nearby corn. Never seen a deer eat any grass anywhere. Grass just doesn’t have the nutrients they need so they don’t bother with it. I see them eating acorns, maple leaves and leaves off bushes mostly. That is until the apples are around.

Everyone thinks golf courses spew chemicals all over the place. But it’s not true for the most part. Only tees, and approaches get any kind of herbicides.  The majority of liquid fertilizers and insecticides also go to tees, approaches and greens and that’s not very often.

Fairways get a couple shots of granular per year. Fungicides are the main product sprayed and what we use is organic. It’s a high concentrate of similar home organic treatments such as Bonide Liquid Copper. The other major applications  are growth regulators. Fact is the products are crazy expensive. The budget for our application program is in the area of $60k and probably should be more.

A lot of our organic fertilizer comes from the irrigation system which is fed by the main pond. The whole property is built around a swamp system that stretches for miles. Lots of soluble organic matter there.

I wouldn’t worry about eating the deer.

They don’t eat grass Dom.


They actually do eat grass, but other stuff more than grass.
So, your suggestion that deer are probably not being contaminated from the herbicides and pesticides used on golf courses is a safe bet.
However, I would want to eat any of the fish from golf course ponds.

As for your statement about the poisons not being all over the course, I will definitely take exception to this Bob.
We have had a few golf courses close in the area (up north) and the remediation issues are huge before anyone can do anything on those lands.
Southshore CC is one.  It sits dormant because of the litigation, etc. going on.  Originally, there were plans for condos, but that came to a screeching halt.
Also google Westwood CC in Amherst.
That's a real shipstorm.

Here is a link to one article describing it.  But there's tons more.

https://buffalonews.com/news/local/new-toxins-found-at-former-westwood-country-club-site-in-amherst/article_cab308a8-e4a6-5bff-b1c1-a941c171c8f6.html (https://buffalonews.com/news/local/new-toxins-found-at-former-westwood-country-club-site-in-amherst/article_cab308a8-e4a6-5bff-b1c1-a941c171c8f6.html)


I also remember the drums of toxins found at the old Creekside course out off Niagara Falls Blvd back in the early 80's.
That was crazy.


The toxins don't stay where they are used.
They spread through the water underground, etc.
Also, just because a course uses "safer" chemicals today doesn't eliminate or reduce what was spread in the past.

Golf courses are some of the highest contaminated parcels of land.
And the older they are, the more contaminated they are.

Can’t speak for past practices or courses in your area. After all, “Love Canal” was in your back yard.

Farmers used DDT for ages. We know better now. As for your contaminated golf courses, I only speak for current practices at our course. Ours has been a “Forever Wild” habitat since it’s inception. Lord knows what the residents in the $500k homes have put on their lawns, but I know what we put on our course.

Residential neighborhoods are, to me, the largest contributors to passive pollution. They hire the “lawn perfect” companies to dump loads of “stuff” on their picture lawns that end up in our streams and lakes.

Anyway, I wouldn’t worry about eating the deer. And, I’ve never seen a deer eating grass.

I wouldn’t eat any fish from that pond either.
Just because!

Several deer will be getting a stainless and graphite dose soon from my pantry.
My wife is over the top on weed killer and based on the roundup stories maybe rightfully so. I've given up and will be turning my front yard to clover and the back to maybe antler king mix. She thinks I'll kill the 4-pound dog we have if any weed killer is applied.

what a shame  beautiful buck    I've had to leave a few and I've always been lucky since I live in a coyote infested area. But then what area is not infested ?      If I hit one late and I know it was a good hit I give it 2 hrs and I'm back with the coleman lantern. The ones I'm not sure of get the whole night

  I might look into learning how to trap and go on a year long coyote safari

I will say , there is NO GREATER CHALLENGE than trapping...

I have been hunting the same farm for 25 years.  At the start the landowner told me she didn't care what I did but leave the coyotes alone.  Then the coyotes took her disabled son's cat.  After that it was, I don't care what season it is but if you want to keep hunting here kill every coyote you can.  It is a deer rich, coyote rich, habitat.  But I have at least changed their demeanor.  They are not as bold as they used to be.  They used to come close to the house during daylight hours, they don't seem to do that anymore.  You can't leave a deer overnight there, nothing but bones, hide and head will likely be left.  And they are a real pain during turkey season.

    THE THEORY OF TRAPPER  ........ when the  movie  Bambi  was released  hunting license  sales  dropped  by as  much as  50% in areas and  soon  deer management p ;Dermits  where   being  issued (doe permits)  as  time went on  70's the  cute animal  effect or  Bambi effect   was rising among   young people  soon  hunting  started  declining and  deer populations begun to rise  fast ...as  a  life long  trapper  i can say  i  caught  my  first  coyote  in oswego county in 1982 i  walked  out of the  field  with it on my back and  a state  trooper stopped thinking my dog got hit and wanted to offer assistance  as time went bye  the deer population  went up and  so  did the  yotes .....  my theory is the  coyotes  are  here  in numbers  doing  what hunters  had  done  for  many years  control the  number of deer .....  we still have  more  deer then we  ever  had before  so in my opinion the  coyotes are  getting a  bad  name ..... my opinion   shot placement   ......get a good  shot or don't take it .....two  carry a  lantern in your  truck and look a little  harder .... get use  to  the  coyotes   they are  here to stay  without them the  deer  population would  explode  and   disease and  starvation  would  be  natures  next way to control the  population and  she  sure would  do it or  like long  island and  other spots  you would  have  government shooters killing  deer ........ i rather  have the  coyotes , i have  grown to like their singing   :D

Youth weekend...
Took my little man out again this a.m. for another hunt.. 
When my ex wife's father passed away he had left me his nearly brand new 30/30... he had only killed one doe with it...
My son wanted to carry it in honor of his tramps who has been gone 6 years now...
We left the house later than we should have because my son couldnt find his wallet and I wouldnt let him hunt without his license in his hand....
We still got In our blind with plenty of darkness left so we didnt spook any deer..
Same blindt hat last weeks 8 point kill was at....
725 a doe showed herself...
727 a buck popped up behind her...
Little man settled the crosshairs behind the front shoulder and gave this fella a shot to the ribs...
50 yards downhill and my son was ECSTATIC
Lucky young lad to get 2 8 points in same year one week apart!!!!
This one is much nicer

Great pictures. Morning is the best part of the day. Good to see you getting around. Got to get to the doctor and get my knees lubed again before deer season. Was going to get them done this year, But my left arm needed some surgery to fix a nerve. I limited myself to one operation a year. Last year was my heart. This year my arm. Hopefully my knees will get done in '23. Enjoy the season.

That’s awesome Bruce!! I just got back from a diy bowhunt in southern Illinois on public land. Was a fun time. Saw a few bucks and my buddy missed a nice 140 class buck our last evening there.

 FYI to Southwestern NY hunters. Kennedy Meat Market in Randolph NY is not processing full deer carcasses. They will only accept boneless meat to make smoked products and sausage. Do not know the reason.  If you have gone that far, you might as well finish it. Plenty of instructions and recipes on the internet (bearded brothers butchers you tube is one). Kennedy did hundreds of deer every year for many years. Could not find another processor in the area. Had to go back to Buffalo. Good luck to all.

It’s an old story. I live in the Rochester area, to the east. Can’t count the times I’ve seen the Lake Erie snow machine get into high gear and have had tried to drive into it for work.

Told my Bride this afternoon, “ sure glad I’m not on the bucket truck”

Happy to be retired!

RG, As we discussed in the past, your right, it sure gets ugly.
The only thing worse is not being able to use the bucket truck and you have to climb the pole with hooks. The tons of snow and ice falls off the cross arms and down your neck.

This was my 35th SZ opening day. My father put a gun in my hand at 12.

Over all those years I have never seen much more than a basket 8 point on opening weekend.

I doubt I’ll ever top this and I don’t even want to! Shot him at 6:41.

Post by: reeleyz on Nov 21, 2022, 06:03 AM
Thanks guys. A little more backstory on this.

My buddy Ron shot a buck opening weekend of bow so he has been sitting on the sidelines the entire bow season. Friday he went out to check some cameras with his bow in hand. He had this buck dead to rights at 30 yards and passed because he had no tag. Saturday morning he texted me before first light and said "I think you have the best shot at the big one". 45 minutes later "the big one" was dead on the ground in front of me. I yahooed so loud Ron heard it over a half mile away. He texted me and said "Tell me that was you?". He was so happy that I got him. That is a true friend right there.

I shot him within sight of where my dad shot his last buck 24 years ago and also where he passed away that same day. It was very emotional and very special to be there with my brother, nephews, mother, and good friends.

Thanks guys watched him from 345-453 Saturday afternoon. I had gotten down was going home hadn't seen nuts in the stand all day. I got the edge of the field he was 200 yards out I laid down on my stomach and put my self in good shooting spot. At 440 he decided it was time to come across the field he walked to a spot I said when he hits I'm dropping him. Hit him in the heart at 20 yards he ran about 30 yards and face planted

Not sure if it's ok or not but check out nyantler it's pretty impressive what ny can produce. I always think it's funny that onondaga county rarely has any listed.
Some great deer and hopefully better stories to go along with all of them. One doe so far but not for lack of opportunity.

I wish I had the patience to wait for a good one. I always feel a bird in the hand is worth 2 in the bush so the first 4pt that comes by ends up in the freezer.  Just for the record, I am jealous. There have been some really nice buck pics posted.  Congrats to all.  I'm done, stands are all home, and I'm waitin on ice.

62 & done, I know what you are saying. I only hunt the Adirondacks so waiting for Mr. Big to show up could take a while. 66 years to be exact. Over the years I have let a lot of smaller deer walk early in the season only to have tag soup. That being said I have never looked back. I enjoy just being able to still get out as much as I do....h2l

Earlier this season I had a couple of screw ups on big bucks. My wife knew how mad I was at myself. One day while I was on the road she called me and put my 6 year old on the phone. He said, "It's okay to mess up, but you're not going to give up that easy are you.?"

I hope I can remember those words for the rest of my life.

How old is that flyer ?

I have all of those shotguns and rifles.
I recall wanting The 12ga Ithica Deerslayer a long time ago. I ended up buying one and it never matched up to my Mossberg 500. Mostly because of the location of the noisey safety on the trigger guard. As we all know, you make the slightest noise and a deer will look you in the eyeball

I have both deer slayer and Mossberg 500. I love the deerslayer only down fall like you said the safety. Still I choose the Ithaca over the Mossberg anyday however those days are numbered my 10 year old gets it when he's old enough to hunt. It was my wife's grandpa's gun

I 've got 2 of the Deer Slayers in 20 gauge   One is really old with the longer barrel   They don't get much use now that rifles are legal, which I don't know why I even use a rifle since most of my kills are under 30 yds  I guess the Henry 30-30 is just more fun

My first shotgun was a 12ga Stevens single shot. It was a gift from my grandfather and he called it his barn gun. Later that year he bought me a new Sears catalog gun (also a Stevens 12ga) for my 13th birthday.
 No idea how many birds, rabbits and squirrels i got with that gun.

Always wanted an Ithaca 37. When they reorganized, I bought a Mag 87. Anybody else have one?
I have a friend that I have hunted with for over 50 years that has a Remington 20 gauge. It was the shotgun that the Ithaca 37 was modeled after. He shot many deer at 100yds with that shotgun.

The Rem 1100 is a real nice gun. One of my friends has one and its real solid.

Deerslayer 12 gauge was my first weapon. Only hunted archery for years, then one year I missed a nice 8 pointer, about 30 yards. Went right to Dick’s and got the Model 37.

My father has a Browning Sweet 16. Don’t know much about when he acquired it, but it’s older than me. That is indeed. “Sweet” weapon.

Bought my son a 20 gauge Ithaca feather weight when he started to hunt, later on got him a 12 gauge deer slayer, he is left handed and it was easy to change the safety to left hand. That was 34 years ago, he still has both guns today.

Great memory for sure his first seeing a bear in the woods we were both happy to see it.we watched it for 45 minutes.it was 20 yards from me and about 35 yards from little guy.not allowed to shoot them in there only deer.

Some AH killed the bear at Montezuma! at least they caught him but come on man!

Got my little man out this weekend chasing some birds...
Yesterday we got a later start than I wanted(totally my fault for not being prepared, lost my slate call and walmart doesn't open till 6 a.m.)
We had birds gobbling all a.m. but I couldn't get them to come to us and they were on ground I don't have permission to hunt...
This a.m. was a different story.. same exact spot.. these birds were roosted about 100 yards from us.. we got out of the truck and the birds started gobbling at 530..
We rushed to get the blind set up and our decoy out... it was foggy so we had some time to get set up quietly.. There were 3 birds together gobbling at birds down the valley.. they would be gobbling back and forth( they were Jake's so they talked ALOT)
I Gave a few soft purs and clucks as it got lighter out just to let them know we were there while still roosted..
At 615 they got quiet and didn't hear a peep.. I figured they flew down.. so I gave one quiet pur and they erupted in all 3 banging their wings and gobbling...
At 620 my boy had his first turkey on the ground.. got to watch the other 2 Jake's ju p on this one as he flopped on the ground!!!!
So cool as I got it all on video too

It's so awesome when the woods are filled with gobbling birds...
3 Jake's roosted together and they were gobbling like crazy at each other in the tree!!!

I have never seen a morel anywhere. I walked through a giant patch of ramps without knowing what they were the other day. Now I'm thinking I should go back and harvest some.

I did shoot a turkey on Friday morning, first one in probably 20 years. 8" beard, didn't get a weight on it.
Title: Re: NY Fisherman Hunting and BS'n Thread
Post by: cnyiceguy on May 08, 2023, 11:10 AM
New York state isn't the best state for morels, but they do grow. It doesn't compare the the Midwest or other Great Lake states. Last year I got blanked! Some years I'll find a few hundred. That's all part of the fun...and the eating! Dead elms, apple trees, tulip poplar, and cottonwood are all areas
they MAY grow. I found all 87 in the same area the other day. Struck out in about a half dozen other locales.

I had 2 coyotes come into my turkey decoy this year. One was about 15 yds away, while the turkey was gobbling up the hill. I tried to spook him away. All he did was circle around and walk between me and the decoy at about 7 yds. Needless to say the turkey never came in.

I had a similar situation about 20 years ago. I had a decoy set up and a Tom and hen responding. I had a coyote sneak in behind me. I waved my arms and it ran back. Then the hen started to approach and he snuck back out in front of me. He stood there still, waiting for that bird, and she walked right to him. She got to about 10' away from the coyote and I got up and spooked them both before he had a chance to kill her.

I've got a pair of Fox with a litter under my barn. This is the second time in 3 yrs. I'm surprised at how many Turkey and rabbits that he brings home. The remnants are always scattered around after they get done with it. I watched 2 of them a few days back wrestling over a crow. They have to be great hunters considering how many birds they get.

The history of coyotes in this country has time and time again proven that "kill em all" will NEVER produce the results you want.

Killing them results in larger litters as well as reproducing at a younger age. Killing the dominant coyotes disrupts the pack causing them to spread out and start their own packs at higher reproduction rates. It does not decrease the population.

We've been trying to kill them all for 150 years and all we have done is help them spread to every inch of the country. We wiped out bears, cats, and wolves to brink of extinction with ease, buy coyotes are a different story.

The only thing that makes sense to me is hammering on them in the winter to reduce their numbers. Then they have less of an impact on the young of the year. Their numbers will rebound that year and then we do it all over again.

There seems to be some confusion here.  It is perfectly legal to plant food plots and hunt over them in NY.  It is very common.  It is not legal to place any mineral blocks containing salt where deer have access.  It is not legal to place bait to attract game.  You will see bags of "deer candy" in many retail stores later in the year.  It seems obvious that most of these, if not all, are being used illegally to bait deer.  I imagine most of these contain corn, maybe with some salt or sugar added.  The DEC will ticket anyone caught doing this.  It does seem wrong that stores can sell this stuff in NY when it is not legal to use it in NY.  That's NY for you.

NY DEC is full of hypocrisy. First, most of the state went from shotgun to high power rifle " to help control the deer" yet won't allow full inclusion for xbows for older people. They want to "protect" spawning bass by having a season, yet allow tournament fisherman to target them on beds (allowing gobies to eat their eggs). They wonder what is wrong with the grouse population but I see more fisher than grouse in my area of the southern tier. Thanks for introducing another predator when there isn't a market for fur. Statewide 10" limits on crappie will produce lots of lakes with 9" just like they were 8" when they had to be 9". Yet they a "worried" about crappie taking over the St Regis lakes. There are other things I can't remember right now.

As a SCUBA diver I can tell you that the gobies quickly raid nests when a bass is off the bed.  There are youtube videos of this.  The catch and release out of season only applies to bass, correct?  I don't think you can target walleyes or pike out of season, although it might be hard to prove you were targeting them.  So, why the exception for bass?

Probably because there's so freekin many of them.

 Ok here’s my take I’m going to say the bass organizations carry a lot of weight in some areas , Oneida isn’t as good as it once was
 Jefferson county has unlimited bass and they don’t allow it
 If the DEC believes your targeting fish out of season you could get a ticket but most times they will warn you and tell you to move on , we see it up north while perch fishing this spring , we had a visit from the DEC checking licenses and so on
 We ask them about it and they say they give out lots warnings

A ticket for targeting is a hard one to get. Some states do it right by saying if you catch a species that isnt in season more than 3x and dont change tactics you are "targeting" them.  Makes sense.

One Spring the GF and I were perch fishing with minnows on Fair Haven Bay.  We were doing pretty well on the perch.  I caught a couple smallish pike and a bass in a row.  She put her pole down and made me move the boat.  I think if you were casting big spoons or something like that a CO would have a good argument for writing a ticket but we were legitimately perch fishing.

Understood.
And food plots are NOT illegal in NY.

A hunter going out and creating a food plot for deer and then hunting in that area isn't really "bait and shoot" I don't believe.
However, tossing out a few bushels of apples or setting up a few salt licks and shooting the deer that show up, is illegal.
I personally think that it's splitting hairs, and both are "technically" baiting, but it only matters what a DEC agent decides.

I think that if a guy wants to go out into the woods and prepare the ground and create a food plot, watering it, taking care of it, etc. that is fine.
The guy is doing tons of work to create a "localized" habitat conducive to where deer like to live.
He put the effort in - he should be rewarded, to some extent.

Many years ago (like 40) I was throwing a huge spinner bait in a local creek for pike.
It was spring and they were not in season.
I was catching quite a few and returning them safely.
I did this for days, knowing that I was actually catching the same pike numerous times.
The local CO showed up.  (I knew him)
He asked what I was fishing for, watching me throw this HUGE spinner bait.

I told him "bullhead".

Just then a nice pike hit, and I reeled it in and properly released it in front of the CO, cursing how these PITA pike are getting in the way to me catching bullhead.
He just laughed and as he was leaving warned me that every PITA pike I caught better be released.
I said, "of course".

The point is that there are people who will target fish to keep illegally.
And there are people who simply want to have some fun and catch some fish - but not keep or hurt them.
A decent CO will/should analyze the situation and decide whether to issue a ticket, a warning, or otherwise.
The laws are written to try and cover all situations so that they take care of the bad stuff.
Then it's up the CO's to decide how to enforce the laws.  Not us.

Ohio thinks otherwise on Lake Erie, they put a season on the smallmouth a couple years ago. The problem isn't guys arbitrarily catching bass, its guys targeting bass on the beds, especially tournament guys. With live scope and the Megaphone tubes they look in the water with, the bass don't have a chance. It will eventually have an effect. The guy that caught a 30lb bag during a tournament on Cayuga last year admitted they were all bedding fish. Wheres the sport in that? Catch them when there already stressed, haul them around in a livewell all day, and release them miles from their nest. Those eggs/fry don't have a prayer.

Personally, I believe that when a person deliberately drops an out of season fish into his live well with the sole purpose being to transport that fish, he should be liable for a ticket and fine for taking and possessing protected wildlife. It should make no difference whether or not he intends to release said fish after weigh in. These tournaments are just plain CRAP. Also, the organization promoting this activity should be held equally responsible.

I remember seeing a post on another site a few years back showing a camera on a Smallmouth bed on Lake Ontario. They caught the smallmouth and immediately released it and it showed how long it took the bass to return. It was long enough for the gobies to start hammering the bed. Those preseason Cayuga bass were caught multiple times. Guys had GPS coords of where the beds were. Everyone involved should be ashamed of themselves.

As some of you know…My son and I are bass fishing fanatics, but, absolutely refuse to fish for bass on beds. Not long after ice out, we’ll toss chatter baits,  jerk baits, and crank baits in hopes of catching a bass. If we do, we do. But, the thought of a tournament, for a big payday, fishing for bass on beds to win???? No sport in that at all.  Directors, anglers and sponsors of those tournaments should be nut punched. Most of the anglers who do it, do it for the glory shot from their phone to post in the heroes page on social media. No heroes in my book. I actually love bass fishing when the dog days of summer set in, jump in the boat with my son and go crack 5 big ones that we actually had to grind for 8 hours to catch. Most of the heroes want the info on how to catch them. Go earn em, we do!! I do believe more patrolling of ECO’s will help stop some of the heroes from targeting the bass on beds up north from us. I haven’t quite figured out why snagging dying salmon tickets are more important than heroes targeting bed fish or people keeping over limits of fish tickets…..🤦🏻 easier to walk on land and write tickets, I guess!!! Carry on boys!!!😎

As far as I'm concerned, targeting bass on beds is about as smart as a spring doe season. Maybe that'll be the DECs next move to curb the deer population!

If you want to catch decent pannies you have to let these guys swim another day. He's probably not legal but I wouldn't sacrifice him just for a fillet anyway. They clean up a lot of the surplus fish leaving room and more feed for the survivors. Fun to catch, even more fun to watch him swim away.

Got my 4th tree stand up today. It was a little more work than I had planned since I had to cut a couple shooting lanes through the thorn apples and it was a bit warmer this morning with no breeze, and that worked well for the mosquitoes. Maybe 1 more for now and then we'll see what shows before I move or install more.

Trapp ; you're going to enjoy that O & U. I bought a Ruger 12 ga in 3"a few years back while on a trip in Pa. I've owned a lot of scatter guns and I think I'm most fond of this one. It'll tear a duck out of the clouds and mangle a gobbler's noggin. Always wondered what I could do with a coyote but just can't seem to drag myself out on a cold winter's night. Good luck pal.

Watch for ground bees ! I do quite a bit of brush hogging and have noticed more this year than usual. This morning while snooping for another tree stand location, I bumped into 2 nests. They both got me.

Anybody doing well with the gills lately? I was having a ball into mid-July. They seemed to be deeper each trip and now it's been 3 trips and hardly anything. Thought I knew how to catch-em but right now I'm baffled. I know the heat is not great for anything and my trying to learn to fly fish has left me at somewhat of a disadvantage, but the ultra-light and jigs are striking out also. Just wondering how you all are doing.

I have caught a few suspended ones while trolling for walleye.

Post by: 62 & Done on Sep 14, 2023, 04:41 PM
Here I go again - I just can't help it but this is a subject that gets me hot. I think that every person who sets foot on public property should be required to purchase a habitat stamp. Why should NYS hunters and fishermen (and ladies) feel that they have to purchase a habitat stamp and foot the bill for everyone else?  Take a ride into the Dacks, or the Catskills, and count the out of state plates. These people are all using "our" property scott free. No permits no stamps no nothing. When you see an out of stater slide his boat into a public launch who payed for it. How about the tree huggers down in the city who want to dictate how we live and when and where I can cut firewood. Do they own a habitat stamp? When you see trails being maintained who payed for it? Not Them.

    Make it mandatory for all and I'll be the first one in line. With things the way they are, there is a dark place where they can put their Habitat stamp. Sorry, that's just the way I see it.

Correct.

Many non-residents buy fishing and hunting licenses, and snowmobile trail passes.

But you are correct, many people don't pay for the privilege of using our natural resources.
Title: Re: NY Fisherman Hunting and BS'n Thread
Post by: TomFish on Sep 15, 2023, 02:36 PM
Habitat and access stamps aren't required for hunters and i don't agree with requiring them for others either.
All public land users SHOULD purchase one, definitely, but i don't think they should be compulsory.

Perhaps the state could start an initiative to advertise them to non-hunting demographics like hikers, kayakers, snowmobilers, and campers. Allow them to be sold in other venues like campgrounds and sporting goods stores and outfitters.

Not hunting related, but same holds true in New Hampshire for kayaks and canoes
They use all lakes and river, parking lots and create disasters at ramps.
They use all the same resources from Fish & Game, Department of Safety, First Responders, etc.

It is not an issue with me, most of those that are using our lakes and trails, either live, work, pay taxes here OR come from other states, buy food, stay in a local business, etc. The bottom line if the state would want to make out of staters pay pretty sure we would be doing it also...h2l

Let's get back on track here.

Moose season started here in Haines, AK on Friday. In most of the state they are open to non-residents but in this area it is a subsistence hunt open only to residents that must apply. Bulls only with spike/ forks, 50" wide or having 3 brow tines on one side; with a limit of 25 where the season ends. The check station is right here at headquarters where I stay on my days off and got to see this nice one yesterday. Talked to the hunter and he took his canoe across the river, it's wide and has many channels, to hunt; said he had to wait for the wind to die down before paddling back with all the meat, it gets big whitecaps.

I just got back from a Wyoming DIY public land archery elk hunt. What a blast!!!!

I had a great trip out there! I only shot 1 grouse but I was able to get a bull last Wednesday.

Evening 1 - I was able to locate a bull to chase the next morning.

Day 2 all day - I chased that bull all the way to his bed. I worked around the herd and got above them with good wind. I got in tight around 3PM and made some calls. More times then not a bull just picks up the herd and moves away, same thing here. Then I had a calf come running in at 15 yards. Then I tried shadowing the herd because they were moving slowly. I had let out some calf calls to try and get a pinpoint on the bull but he stopped responding. Next thing I know a small bull pops over the hill looking at me. I was able to noc an arrow and range him at 43. I only had a frontal so I passed on that. I moved down the ridge a bit and had another smaller bull come walking broadside. He was going to step out at 20 but the wind changed. Then it got dark.

Day 3 all day - same area but much quieter. I bumped 1 elk midday. I mostly tried to get between bedding areas and calf call to pull something out. There was 1 bull with cows in there. At 5 PM he moved them down the drainage away from me.

Day 4 Morning - New spot. I worked up a ridge for the first hour and I was going to try calling over a north face because it looked like good bedding on the map. I get almost there and a bull bugles to my left. I sit tight because I think he was headed my way. Then another bull bugles. They start screaming and I can hear the 2nd bull glunking. So I decide to push in close. He had 2 cows and was raking. I get the wind right and move in to about 60 yards while he is occupied. I should have just sat tight because he may have moved my way since the other bull was pestering him but I decided to challenge him and of course he just pushed the cows up the ridge and went on screaming. Way too fast to keep up to though. Really awesome encounter like you dream of.

Day 4 Evening - I pick a new spot to call and listen for bugles. I get in to about 1/4 mile from where I want to stop to call and I bump an elk. I decided to sit tight and see what happens. Maybe 10 minutes later a bull bugles off the point where I wanted to go. Then 10 minutes later he bugles at about 100 yards. I let out a calf call. Then 1 minute later I catch him at about 60 yards going broadside and walking towards my wind. So I cast a calf call to my right into the wind. He turns on a dime and starts coming my way. He gets to 30 yards and I draw. Then he turns right at me. Before I have an opening to stop him he is at about 7 yards! So I put my pin 
on his shoulder while he is walking and I release. I get a good hit. He turns and I send out a few calls and he stops at 20 on a hard quarter away. I send another arrow and it is another good hit. He goes maybe 10 more yards he stands for a few minutes and finally crashes!!!!!

I couldn’t believe that it all came together. I backed out and got my buddy. We got back before sunset. We quartered, deboned, hung the meat, and caped him out. We finished up at 1:30 AM.

We got a little rest and headed back in at 8 AM. It started to rain at 9. Then at noon it started to snow. We finished up the pack out at 2PM.

You're probably right filet. As I recall ,the stew was most likely what I would choose as the best of several different ways we tried it. I think I would do that again. The ground meat I thought was not good at all.
  Back to the beaver. I was thinking about a slow cooker with a red wine bath ?

My father was a woodchuck hunter. He always took the younger ones. I don't remember what they tasted like, but I do know that mom liked it and she was a bit fussy about such things.  I have to wonder, what's the worst critter that you guys have ever tried to eat. And I'm not talkin about Aunt Millies goulash that she always brought to the family picnic. I mean something that you killed and then wished you left it there!

Got-em  This deer was a little bit of retribution as I missed one on Friday eve which was a little better deer. That same buck showed again Saturday morning and offered no shot even though he was within 14 yards. He had me stewing! Then that evening this one made the fatal mistake at a different location. He is now all boned out and, in the cooler, where he will spend 3 or 4 days. Then all but the loins will be turned into sausage.  I went back to take down my tree stand this afternoon and there was an eagle dining on the gut pile. I'm glad someone other than the coyotes benefited.

Another venison goes thru the Cabelas grinder. Made 32 lbs of loose sausage, another 6 of just ground meat for a big batch of chili, and the back straps got sliced up.
The next one will be stuffed into casings for sausage links. They're great over a fire or on the grill

Post by: 62 & Done on Oct 21, 2023, 05:46 PM
We use our imagination a lot. It makes great burgers. Breakfast patties, pizza, meatballs for spaghetti, Stuffed zucchini. The list goes on. Anything that can be done with Italian sweet sausage can be done with this. I still like a steak now and then, but the sausage has so many uses I only keep a few steaks.

I also like taking a precooked burger out onto the ice with me. It's wrapped in foil and I have a little heater to warm my lunch.  MMM

     Yes sir:   There is only one rule-  How creative do you want to be. We're freezing 8 qts of chili we made yesterday. Someday this week it's lasagna nite.

 Venison sausage is a very simple project.  Prepacked seasonings are available everywhere. We like Italian sweet sausage by Pilot Seasonings. I buy it direct but it's available in many outlets in I think 12 oz pks.
 My formula is: 10 lbs lean venision to 2 lbs clean Pork fat from the local butcher. (not beef) Cube it up so that it mixes well in your grinder. Get a little frost in it and it grinds much better. A full pilot pkg is labeled for 25 lbs of pork but I will put 3  times my formula together per pkg and it is delicious.
 If the plan is to stuff weiners then add 1 cup ice water to each 10 & 2 batch. This aides in allowing you to make a nice uniform weiner as it slides thru your stuffer as well as the casing with ease.

 Note:  my cabelas grinder pushes the product out too fast really to make a nice looking weiner as it is tough to control, I bought an independent sausage stuffer which is nothing more than a canister and plunger with a hand crank and different diameter tubes to choose from. It's actually fun to do. Casings are available in a salted pkg at your grocer.

   Get busy and start acting like a butcher. You'll have fun doing it.

Between the full moon and the cold front i had really high hopes for deer movement yesterday. I hoped the unusual NE wind would be in my favor, but that didn't play out like I had hoped.

The only deer I saw moving on its own was a spike and he was just milling around feeding.

The only thing I have learned for a sure bet is the fact that every rule is meant to be broken. They were moving someplace. (at least that is what I tell myself) They just didn't happen to come by me.

The bucks are on the move!

My uncle shot an 8pt running does yesterday morning around 7:30 and the buck continued to chase after he was hit. An hour later on the other end of the same property (in 6K) I shot another 8pt out cruising. It was a long morning hauling both bucks out.

Here is a pic. My buck is on the cart, and my uncles is in the truck. We don't remember ever having two of us (6 or 7 of us in the family) shoot bucks the same morning. We've had multiple does or a buck and a doe, but never two bucks that we can think of.

   Way to go. Nice buck.    I took the loins from my beaver and after chilling a bit, sliced it thin to fry up as you would bacon. Results were very tasty. Not at all disappointed. Next, we will brine soak a hind quarter over nite and put him in the crock pot. The wife has found a few interesting recipes.

It strolled across the fairway as golfers were teeing off from an elevated tee. They actually hit balls over it.

Yeah,  he had a good day.
My neighbor got a really big doe Saturday. Then the day turned sour. 2 flat tires on his atv trailer on the way home. Had to park his trailer in some kind farmer’s driveway and rescue it the next day.

I have a hard time listening to the deer stories, Remnants from working in the gun shop I guess. But, he’s a good guy and doesn’t have too many people to tell them to. So, we listen.

Due to some stupid heart and lung problems my hunting time is nil. Thanks to the generosity of friends,two deer were given to us. Had my 10 year old helper come down. He has been helping me for 6 years now. He skinned his first deer by himself last year. He did both today. We took a break and cooked some venison over the fire we had to keep warm. After the break, I watched as he boned the meat as they were hanging. I can rest comfortly knowing he  will carry on when I'm gone. He says "This is satisfying" I love it.

    I never knew that greensider  I bought mine in 73 not knowing it's origin.  My wife's rifle came along much later but according to Winchester, It was made around the same time period. They were both sent in for an old recall part and I had the manufacture date checked. Those old Wins were built to last.

He is at 3 years old here. I was out hanging a deer with a buddy when he came out dressed like this and said "I'm a hunter too Papa"
He is also an accomplished sausage maker too. He keeps me young.

Got my hands on this little gem a couple days ago - had it given to me. It's a Mansfield 12 & 1/2' fiberglass over Mahogany ribs. Barely weighs 50 lbs. She's in really nice shape except the gunnels and end caps need replacing. That will make a neat little project during the cold nasty weather. I'm now waiting for a break in the wind so I can slide it into the water for a maiden voyage before ice sets in.  I'll use it to do a little research on some small waters for future ice fishing days and maybe even target a brook trout which I haven't done in years. It'll also be a fun little toy when we go camping. Now I just have to learn to fly fish while sitting down.  HA!!!

Thought some of you might find this interesting. This is a picture of "Scuffy". She was a doe that showed up for 9 winters at my nephew's. She was not there last year. She was a small doe that we "never" saw her with young. Not sure if she ever had fawns. I saw her 2 or 3 times while I was hunting but always late in the season....h2l

My brother usually has about a dozen under his "bird" feeder near Gloversville. Not sure if he has ever kept track of one individual. Will have to ask.

Thought some of you might find this interesting. This is a picture of "Scuffy". She was a doe that showed up for 9 winters at my nephew's. She was not there last year. She was a small doe that we "never" saw her with young. Not sure if she ever had fawns. I saw her 2 or 3 times while I was hunting but always late in the season....h2l
My wife's cousins in Conway SC have a doe that has been in the neighborhood for 18 years. Darla comes when called and when she has had fawns she doesn't bring them with her. It's crazy and in a rural area where you'd think she would get shot but she sticks around and sleeps on people front porches. And they know how long because she was abandoned by her mom and they bottle fed her but left her outside to roam free but she obviously imprinted on them as family and pops in often.

Wouldn't believe it if I haven't heard about this deer forever and hadn't met her on several trips along with the pictures. One of the boys tells a story of hunting behind the house and having a doe come into the bait pile, which is legal in SC, and he actually called her name out to see if the doe lifted her head and would come to him. It obviously wasn't Darla and he laughs telling us how fast that doe tore out of there.

Another one with the bow. Nice with little snow still.
Nice pics of survivors and that second one looks pretty good. Must have hid in someone’s yard.

 Few weeks ago just up road off a trail was a 💩 ton of garbage dumped , I made the call an officer showed up and 2 days later it was all cleaned up , I got a follow up call to make sure I was aware it had been taken care of
     another time a logger cut trees on my property the officer , the forester , and the DA handled that with a favorable outcome
 👍
 Personally I don’t mind seeing them when out fishing as they are doing their job
 Last time when boat checked we had a nice visit with a pair of officers

The deer take has been heavy on the bucks lately. It doesn’t seem to matter how many doe tags the DEC hands out. 

I am hoping to get my mom out once for the Holiday hunt.

I'm glad to hear Tony is still in business. He repaired my Terrova several years ago under warranty. I tried to but a screw for an old Shakespeare President casting reel. He wouldn't sell one, but he gave me an envelope with a half dozen of them.  No charge. Good guy,
