  1. The wife and I bud capped hundreds of small conifers yesterday with aluminum screen to prevent browsing. It was too late this year for most of the small white pine. My wife was PO'd, but she's the one that removed the mesh cages earlier this year. Protect it or lose it in deer country. 
    My neighbor and I planted 900 white pine seedlings a few years ago. Deer wiped every single one out!

  2. For my inboards, i run them with a hose on the water strainer until warm and the thermostat is open. Then I drain each water manifold, drain the block, and pull the pencil zinc on the oil cooler and drain it. Then I run pink thru the water strainer until it comes out the exhaust.

     

    So from where your at, I would drain everything and make sure there is no water in the raw water strainers.

     

    To fog my motors, I just replaced the water fuel separaters and place 2 ounces of 2 cycle oil in them. That lubes the motors up fine. But if you do remove the flame arrestor to fog them, thats a good time to hit them with brake cleaner or carb cleaner and get them ready for next year.

  3. Damn, after reading this thread I feel lucky. Me and my neighbor have an agreement. During archery and the first couple days riffle, we each keep to our own property. If one shoots a deer, the other helps track it regardless of which property its on. After the first couple of days, we conduct drives together. Last year I pushed him a nice 8pt, so I guess its his turn to push me one this year.

  4. I had over 20 doe walk in front of me last Saturday during PA's early season, but didnt have a doe tag where we were at.

    Also saw a sow with three cubs come out of a cornfield. Didnt shoot the sow as the cubs were pretty small and didnt want to kill three bears with just one shot.

  5. I also bear hunt the early season in Pennsylvania. Corn fields are your friend. Just stop by farms and ask them if they are having any problems with bears in their corn fields.

    Anyhow, I was talking with a PA game warden up by my camp last year. He said alot of the early muzzleloader bear hunters were having problems penetrating the big bears with their loads. He recommended loading up a pretty heavy load. I'm sighted in with 150 grains of power this year (three pellets) and will be heading up late next week.

    Good Luck!
