  1. I bought one new last fall at gander. absolutely awesome. Quiet and easy to use. Its gonna be a work out till you figure out all the little tricks. I love mine

    I gun hunted with it in Allegany with my rifle...sweet deal pick any tree that is open for 25 feet and go. I had deer standing right under my feet 3 times. Just spray up good before you climb and use the safety harness!!!

  2. Yes on and off around Almond too. I was off on the rut this year my trail cams were on fire from 10/25- 11/3. Came earlier than I expected as far as a peak seeking phase. Always earlier around my property in heave acorn years. The mast is just unbelievable this fall.

  3. If you have food on neighboring property forget the plots, or just go with one. Your better off letting things grow as thick as you can get them. I go into sections on my property and just clear cut a patch and let the brush grow. Bedding areas are your best bet for killing a good buck. You won't get to many 3.5 year old or older bucks in a food plot in the daylight. But as soon as they start bumping does they will hit every bedding area they can find to get a doe on her feet.

    I have seen guys take down grass/brush bedding areas to plant plots. All they do is feed the deer and send them to the neighbors to bed and get shot.

    !! Right on we have acreage in Almond. Keep a good section untouched let it overgrow and stay out except for the edges a couple trial cams. We started doing this 5 years ago huge difference in keeping older deer close by. They need a safe spot to hang out . Food is everywhere its about being in a killing tree when the first bunch of does go hot.

    Good luck 20 acres is awesome!!

  4. Hope you find it lousy feeling all.been there. What does the arrow look like. Is it still in the deer?

    Two years ago I had a big 9 pt carry an arrow for 6 hours in his chest. Stuck I too forward but stayed in stuck in the opposite side leg...spotty but heavy blood for a half.mile let him lay over night yup found him.next morning 30 yards from last blood.

    Good luck get after him

  5. I have a fresh tree rub on my property in Almond. Post a pic later looks like an early rub line I think the cold nights in the southern tier have em roudy. We also have a bumper acorn crop that gets them ruttin early down there.

    Yes love this time if year!!!
