HEY New York bow hunters
I wanted to start a post to help out NY bow hunters. I’m from central NY, and I am in need of some information from the locals. Last year was my first bow season, and I found it to be 100% different and better than our regular season. Deer are actually moving about calmly. During the regular season all you have to do is set up at a funnel where the deer pass through as they run from one hellfire to the next.
Lets share some info on what we see in our neck of the woods, prior to and during our bow season. Not day to day stuff, but a general observation of change.
Examples:
Deer hitting the apples or acorns?
Did the trees stop producing?
Farmers harvesting corn…more deer activity?
Scrapes and rubs
Rut activity
List your plan for the season
