Who's Ready For NY Season To Start?
#11
Mt.man, I no longer Salmon Fish. The big crowds of fisherman, surrounding holes isn't what I call all that relaxing. I used to go all the time until I ran into some really rude guys. I'd much rather grab a fly rod, and go hit a stream for brookies, or take out a canoe after some bass. Fisherman have also invaded some of my favorite hunting spots by attempting to gain access in areas less fished. So it puts more of a bad taste in my mouth.

New York Resident Licenses became available yesterday. Looking forward to opening day. We saw a lot of action in WMU 6R last year. Hopefully we are not overrun with coyotes this time around. Saw quite a few last season with a few stripped deer carcasses found in the spring.

I've been shooting a ton w/my bow. Preparing for a Colorado archery Elk hunt in couple wks. It'll be my 3rd trip to the Mtn hunting region. Been running, and biking. Grabbing the bow soon as finish exercise, and shooting in awkward situations back to 40yds. Having my boys hide a 3d target in woods, and telling me to hurry, get behind that tree quickly. Then shooting. Everything I can think of for tough hunting situations get into after those Elk.

I can't wait. Going up to my property this weekend to check on things, scout out tree stand spots, and cut some very needed trailed into the back of our property. I have some great trail cam pics, but I can't wait till this weekend to check them. Its been a solid 3 weeks or so since with pulled the SD cards, and we have the trail cams on two small fields we cut a few months back. Also bringing up my ATV to the new property for the first time, can't wait to explore!

I cant wait either.....
Ived had my cameras up since last year . Ive been changing the cards and rechargable batteries abought every 2 to 3 weeks .
I got some nice pics , mother and fawn pics and a decent 6 pointer that I started getting pic,s of in the spring , then he disappeared and reappeared .I cant wait I,m sure theres many I havent got on pics,
Although overall I,d say in my main hunting area in Norther NY. its been a slight decrease in deer sightings the last 2 seasons..
I received my lifetime license on monday , then wednesday went to Gander and got my 8T Stueben county doe tag .
There are some very nice bucks there also just last year was a bad year for us as far as deer sightings there also ...
