I have some stuff to take care of at home in the morning. I think when I can get away I might head over to Clinton to do some scouting and see if I can't thump a bunny or 2.

I'll be still hunting & might even use a stand that is permanent, there on State land so anyone can use them.

Yep, our winter bow season runs through Feb. 16, depending on which zone you hunt. The early season opener was Sept. 8. Just about every day in between was open to hunt deer, except Sundays and Christmas.

Yeah, Sal, I'm gonna be sitting home today for the same reason. I've been fighting off a cold for almost 2 weeks now, and it picked today to get to me.

Good Evening. Well Vaughn and I hunted from sun up to sun down.We didn't see a tail! Morning hunt we sat the Table Top Vaughn was on the ground in a big blow down ,I took my climber in. I went all the way up to where the tractor road ends.Found fresh tracks and plenty of good sign.Went up an oak on the edge of some hemlocks. Had three seperate runs , fresh tracks going threw the hemlocks scat all over.About an hour or so I hear a pack of beagles down in the Quarry and on the other side of the road. Here we go I said to myself. NOTHING. Came down at 11:00. Drove down the road and hit a spot put a short drive on for Vaughn ZERO.Showed Vaughn another of my good spots, hardly any tracks [used to be a hot spot winter bow]ZIP.Checked out a promising new spot and decided to sit until dark tracks, sign,no deer.The weather was good, no wind , low to mid 20's, nice . Besides that we had a great day. Was good hunting with Vaughn, good to be out.

Yup, another great day in the woods, even though we didn't see anything. I saw a lot of promising spots for next fall. Thanks Tom. Sorry no pics, stupid me forgot to put the memory card in my cheapo camera so all the cool scenery pics I took were never saved   :banghead:

Glad to hear some of you got out together. Hope to come and shoot at your place this week Vaughn.

Vaughn, don't feel bad I have my camera in the glovebox of the truck for that reason. I just have to remember to take it out! Just think if those beagles would have got on that/those deer a little sooner! They would have ran right to us.You said the owners had to chase them to get them back.I heard them whistling to get the pack back .It sounded  like he   had at least four to  six dogs.That Longbow of yours is a shooter. I enjoyed  shooting it. Beautiful bow.We have to get together with some of your arrows so you can shoot mine. One day we'll spend the day scouting and shooting. We'll get the boys together at the range up there.

Stiff Rod...I agree with your PM...we SHOULD START HUNTING ON SUNDAYS...  :readit:    :rolleyes:  

Less hunters in the woods and we can get in the full weekend. I'm sure Scott and Mike would agree. Great idea pal....thats why we put you in charge...always thinking!!!   :thumbsup:  

You Jersey boys should seriously consider making Shawns Bunny Hunt...its tough but its a great time...

Joe, I was thinking very seriously about making it up to Shawn's bunny hunt, but I just can't pull it off this year. Lee's going to be camping at Valley Forge with Boy Scouts, and I have a funny feeling he's going to want me to go with him.

I am going to plan to make it next year.   :bigsmyl:

Joe that's why I get so many headaches! I would love to make the trip up to Shawns. I love you guys. J.R. just got asked at College  to go to France to study Art for a couple of weeks. Gotta see how much funds I need.Hey us Jersey guys forgot what rabbits look like No rabbits left in Jersey. Got any pictures? Tuff? What tuff? Tuff Tommy P the king of Hamburger Hill.
