laxdad- Very good stuff, thanks for the posts.
I absolutely love pooching around still hunting. To me it is the ultimate in hunting. To be able to stalk and kill a whitetail on their grounds with a bow is really cool. I've been succesfull in the past with it. I've never killed a big mature buck on the ground, but I have taken several deer. I am partial to still hunting in a standing corn field


.
By the way, I'm from the finger lakes area of NY, not the adirodack park region. Like I said, I've never been very successful in the "big" woods. I'm a farm area hunter.
Where abouts in the Fingerlakes area laxdad? I hunt around Auburn/Throop/Sennett area.
