I Know Oswego County- 6k isn't as north as speaking. But the hunting sounds alot like same. I've seen 1 buck since I started 9/27 w/bow, and that went in my freezer for meat. Not the sign I usually see, some in selective areas. I also hunt Cortland Co. 7m, and see the sign there, but my trail cams mostly showing night time action. I personally think northern tier was hurt some by the winter, and alot of nice bucks were harvested last year. newzjunky was loaded w/pics for 2010 season. Plus this darn warm fall has hurt the movement across NYS. I thought I was off to a good start, but now I'm thankful I arrowed that small buck!
