Default RE: Where are all the southern tier NY bow hunters?

I bowhunt in Orange County, only hunted on Sunday afternoon, work day at the other hunting camp in the morning. Only seen one red fox go right by me walkin in.
I live in Yonkers, and you can't even take a bow outside and shoot let alone hunt. So the deer population has increased greatly, especially along the sprain parkway. Yesterday morning, driving to work, there's a little field and two deer were battling up a storm, looked like sixes go at it, and another buck, standing back in the middle,refereeing the fight, A HUGH 8 pointer. I nearly came out of my socks. I've always seen does there all the time but no bucks. I'm sure some guys tempt fate and hunt in certain areas, but the fines are astronomical, DEC always pop in and out, and it's just not worth it. I wouldn't mind seeing the bucks like that, but an 8 pointer. It's just not fair, raatttzz.
