Wasn't sure your post was to me. I wasn't trying to challange you - was simply citing my observations in the 3 or 4 mile radius around me. I listed the roads and route I drove tonight. For you, go south on East Lake to Rockefeller - east on Riley, Hall or Durea to Oak Hill and do block grids. If you would like more detailed directions, then let me know.
Ease up
I'm eased very eased.[:-] My hunting buddy lives on rockerfeller Rd. and has the same beliefs I do and that's pretty much all his life consists of for the last 20 years (deer population).
Let me ask you this as an Auburn area hunter............. Are there the same amount of deer around in the last 2 years as say 7- 10 years ago??

Whats with the "Elvis" crack. All I did was share my sightings from the last couple days. Gave pretty good directions to where I saw them. These are traditional drive by areas for many locals who like to see deer. Not sure why I deserve your sarcasm.
The deer are there.Do the drive a couple times near dusk on a mild weather day and see for yourself. If you see nothing then critisize me. Until then, please don't act as if I am intentionally trying to mislead anyone.
Thanks
Steve

Oh I do have to ask you one thing first though... have you ever played ice hockey at the rink next to the airport in Albany? Sorry if that's an odd question, but I noticed on the Offseason forum that you play or at least used too, and I also saw your pic over there, and well... you look a whole lot like a guy that I uh... had a bit of an on ice disagreement with once... Probably wasn't you but I'd rather not have any nasty surprises...
LoL I've played hockey in places so many places I don't know whether I was coming or going. Didn't even know the state I was in half the time.

Listen fellas no hard feelings here. I know we disagree on some things. When it comes down to it I simply want the absolute best hunting for our state. I have 3 boys and I want deer hunting and populations to be thriving for them when they are old enough to hunt. I want them to able to get enthused about the sport. I just notice some differences over the last 3 years.
You can argue with me until the cows come home but something is different in the herd around the area I hunt. I know what I know!!! I've been doing this for enough years to notice something is on the downward trend here. Maybe it's a fluke maybe it's my littel segregated area of my personal hunting world?? I dunno but I will swear on my set of golf clubs that the herd/population of deer around my neck of the woods have changed. Nothing else has changed in the years I've been there (food, habbitat, etc.........)
Let's get one more thing straight here. I'm not crying the blues here. I am, but not in the sense you think. I will keep on getting on. No matter how much I bitch and moan about the situation, I don't just go pout in the corner someplace. In fact it drives me more to be succesful. So I'm not the kind of guy who's sitting here stomping my feet with a spoiled look on my face. I'll do what I have to do to get it done. I'm just a little peeved about what I perceive as a downfall in the deer population in my area.

No problem

We are about a post behind eac other and I just got kicked off - tough way to communicate. I don't doubt at all things are different north of me around you. And I share your concern for the future.

Let's get together for a 3d or coffee sometime.

Take care

Steve

Well there was a time when one meant more than the others, but now times have changed and the others mean more than the one.

Wow was that profound or what??

LMBO I think I'm the closest thing to Happy Gilmoure there is.[:-]

If your willing to drive a half hour south from Auburn I can put you onto a load of deer. I see them in the fields around Auburn too, don't get me wrong, but if you want to come down here I can show you where to go to see both quantity and quality, and I guarantee you will have access to hunt them in the fall.
I will gladly take you up on that offer. I have a brother that lives in Auburn and he would know the area you are talking about I am sure.........or he can at least find it.

Send me an email.
