RE: Who's getting psyched in New York?
I am definetly getting psyched!! This will be my 25th opening day of shotgun and I still will sleep restless!! I hunt over 60% on public land maybe more. I never remember deer running all over that is for sure! The last few years I have heard a lot of hunters complaining but my groups experiences in that time show better than usual seasons. Heck I have seen at least 46 deer while on watch just this bow season, 12 of them bucks. And I am in central NY and not on any special managed land and most of the time on public land. The last few years the state land is empty after opening weekend of gun. Like my own estate!! I really hope my Dad gets one this year, a buck would be sweet. He is getting short on hunts to go and it has been a couple years since his last and that was a doe. That would make my year.
