RE: Any one out there from NY???
I hunt mainly on the edge of 7F (Auburn in Cayuga County), and we have a nice spot. I see deer almost every day I'm out, and my friend, in his skyscraper stand saw 21 in one morning (9 bucks). Not bad for sitting on the edge of town.
I also try to get to my parents' place just north of Ithaca (Tompkins County) a few times a year, but it's been thin there lately. I let a small buck go last year. Hopefully he grows up and comes back because his spikes were way outside his ears. Looking forward to meeting him again.
Cheers
