Hey MA Hunter, I live in a small town in Northern New York called Harrisville its about 2 hours north of Syracuse and 40 north of Watertown. I hunt mainly in the town over from mine about 15 miles on a farm of about 1000 acres, mostly hay fields and alfalpha and clover. There is some hardwoods and Hemlock stands around, but I try to focus on the pastures and field edges. There are quite a few birds, but not alot of hunters up here get out enough. Well, to all, good hunting and shoot straight!
