  1. Why do deer migrate to these areas then? So they can die anyway? It seems to at least keep them alive. I never find winterkill here... I also like to cut my trees down for firewood this time of year just so the deer get a little fresh browse. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  2. I live in the southwestern part of the northern zone. When we get 2' of snow or more on the ground they move into my property. It is mainly hemlock swamp. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  3. And your Regular season buck tag can be used as a doe tag in the late season. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

  10. Great buck, congrats. Way to stick with it!!!
  11. Here is a detailed review of the Moultrie mobile.You can do it for less than $300 too. Cabelas and Bass Pro have the Moultrie Mobile for $200 right now and you can get several different models of Moultrie cameras for under $100. http://www.bowsite.com/BOWSITE/features/articles/equipment/MoultrieMobileReview/ Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  12. Awesome! Congrats. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  13. LMAO!!! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  14. The newer Moultries have straps but I am sure there is a cable that can be purchased. I have a feeling that these people would destroy the camera if they couldn't get it off the tree though... Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  15. Anybody have any creative ideas for catching trespassers and thieves with trail cameras? I had my best trail cam stolen just before bow season opened this year. Last year one of my SD cards disappeared and several years ago I had some vandalism. I am thinking about getting Moultrie mobile and a security box. I might even put a note out that makes them aware that their picture was already sent to me and unless they want to add vandalism/theft to the list, they should leave the camera alone. The other option is to set up a decoy camera by using an old junk trail cam and then hide a good camera up high that monitors the junk camera. I like option 1 even though it is more expensive. It seems like the chances are better of getting a good picture and giving them a big "F U" at the same time. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  16. Me too and she stills gets a deer every 2 or 3 years!
  17. I totally agree. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  18. My mom is 70 and she just started hunting with a crossbow instead of a compound. She has a ten point and I agree the trigger pull is perfect for her. As far as comparing compound bows and crossbows, a crossbow is much easier to shoot no matter the distance. My mom is all over the target with her compound but dead nuts with the crossbow. She can rest it and she can easily shoot while sitting. She can wait for the right shot and not worry about drawing early and holding or letting down and drawing again. The 2 weapons are not even close to equal but that is just my .02. That being said, you will have to pry my compound from my cold dead hands. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  19. Way to get it done!!! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  20. Congratulations pap!!! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  21. I have my dads old 742 and a model 4 (special edition 7400) and have never had an issue. I do remember one time my brother loaded his 742 30-06 and he slid the action closed slowly to be quiet. Later that day his gun wouldn't fire when a buck came through. He figured out that the hammer never cocked or went back down slowly when he slid the action closed.

  22. That is awesome! Congratulations to your son. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  23. Agreed. Hunter numbers are dropping and the state is going to have an increasingly tough time managing the deer numbers. They can't even meet the quota now. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  24. I wonder how an opener like this affects the deer take. It seems like a lot of guys only hunt opening weekend. The number of shots that I heard was way down yesterday. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
