  1. I certainly hope so. Needless to say if that is a preview of his shooting skills my seat will be turned facing his land tomorrow
  2. 11 ( yes 11 ) shots later he is either good or out of ammunition because the shooting stopped .
  3. Why is it guys wait till they show up at camp or their hunting property and sight their guns in the day before the season? I damn near fell out of my tree. I expect shots during gun season but wasn't ready for them today
  4. Wayne county for me today. Deer in fields on way to land. Nothing but grey squirrels for me so far.....
  5. I used to shoot the copper solids and have switched to Hornady SST at around 8-10 bucks a box. Good groups at 100 yards ( -2" )
  6. Just had a doe pass at 60 yards nobody following her
  7. I only used winchester 180 grain power points today. Being my first day I was concentrating on getting some solid rounds through it and honestly after the last group of 1.5" @ 150 yds I may not change anything. Sent from my SM-G900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  8. Here's my conclusion. Solid rifle, good feel, very accurate. Pros: I was only using a single shooting stick so bench reaults should be better. Started at 100 yds and had a 2",group at 5". high to start. Made some adjustments. Shots 1-2 were at 100 yds. Shots 3-4 were "shooter error". I ended up moving to 150 yards and broke a stick to give me a cross support and ended up with 1.5" group.(shots 5,6, and 7) I was pleased for "free hand" shooting without a bench. Cons : have to make sure bullets are moved all the way back in the magazine or they won't load correctly. There is a little play in it. Once you do it there are no problems ( more human error than gun) And last is the scope. It will work but its not the best. Obviously for the price it isn't top notch. Overall very pleased with comfort, feel, trigger, and accuracy. I would recommend to someone looking for a dependable rifle at a good price. Sent from my SM-G900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  9. Just picked one up this morning. I will let you know my review shortly. Read good things online about it Sent from my SM-G900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  10. Same for me. Last 5 days only deer I've seen come out after 5 each night at opposite end of field. No daytime movement Sent from my SM-G900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  11. Just inside the hardwoods on a pinch point for me tonight... Sent from my SM-G900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  12. Last night I was able to harvest a buck at 430pm. Placed a good shot (heart) and it watched it drop within 30 yards. Had it gutted and dragged out by 510pm. Checked my trail cam tonight and a pack of yotes showed up at 515 pm. It doesn't take them long.....I'm just glad I was gone before they got there Sent from my SM-G900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  13. What do you like for calls ? (estrus can, grunt call, etc). I usually use the estrus can first thing when I get in my stand and settled then sparotically through the rest of the day. I will ocasionally add some grunt calls at the end to mix it up. Sent from my SM-G900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  14. I'm with you. Things have been REAL slow for me. After a long drought of not seeing a deer I finally managed to get a shot off at an 8 tonight. 25 yards slightly quartering away. He ducked and I watched the lighted noc fly right over his back. Then sat and watched it "stare" at me for the next 1.5 hours.Congrats to everyone who has taken bucks this week. This thread helps me get through the long sits with no action Sent from my SM-G900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  15. Congrats. Can't wait to see the pics Sent from my SM-G900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  16. Also look into NY state parks many offer bow hunting. Just need to call for permit Sent from my SM-G900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  17. I checked my trail cams today. Was literally in and out in 15 minutes and didn't go through any thick stuff. Now I'm sitting in urgent care with two ticks fully embedded and cannot get them out. Be careful out there Sent from my SM-G900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  18. Awesome Congrats !! Sent from my SM-G900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  19. They are bad this year. I live/hunt in Oswego county (just 2 miles north of Onondaga county line) and it's probably one of the worst years I've seen. Sent from my SM-G900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  20. This is a lot like salmon fishing. Things are heating up out west and im waiting for the push east. I'm in Oswego county and things are really just beginning with a little sign here and there. Nothing really heavy yet. Bucks really showing little interest in the does. Very few scrapes. Etc. At least this thread helps me pass the time in the stand as i watch the squirrels Sent from my SM-G900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  21. These were used on a compound. I threw away the original Montec package. The picture on the package is the Striker broadhead. I just re-used the packaging Sent from my SM-G900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  22. Sold Sent from my SM-G900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  23. TTT Sent from my SM-G900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  24. i hunt Wayne county and have more sucess with the Estrus Can and grunt calling than rattling. i have very limited sucess with rattling there. I also hunt oswego county and have better sucess there rattling than in Wayne county could just be the areas i hunt.......
  25. Picked up a set of G5 Montec broadheads yesterday to try. They did not work for my setup. Each one was only shot twice into a broadhead target. Extremely sharp. Asking $30.00 shipped
