Had a good hunt this morning,saw 5 jumped one going in.Two were bucks.I have a spot on this ridge along a stonewall.Been seeing deer on the otherside of the wall,but its all small saplins and no place to make a blind or to put a treestand.I,m next to a huge maple which I brushed in.Just sit and watch those deer mill around,wind is to my favor there.I,m watching a scrape in front of me next to the lip of a ravine.I guess sooner or later I will get a shot.Good action though...........

Haven't seen much at all this year yet. Lots of acorns all around these parts again this year, plenty of easy food everywhere for them.

Had a little action tonight, had a doe then a small buck come in but they both smelled me, I was on the ground trying to out a hole in one of them.
Maybe it's picking up some.

I took another doe last night. A nice 15yd shot and 60yd, watched her fall, recovery. My left wrist looked like my left ankle yesterday and I couldn't hang on to my low grip recurve so I got out my straight grip longbow for a change. Forgot how quiet it is. At the shot another doe and button buck who were 20yds behind the one I shot didn't even spook. On the way home I saw a small 6pt chasing a doe.

Thanks.We've got four adult kids, their kids, and a couple spouses, who like venison but don't have time to hunt so I've got to put a pile of them in the freezer. I don't have an account for posting pics .When (IF !) I put some horns down maybe I can email a pic to one of you to post for me.

3 hour sit this evening before the monsoons arrive, never saw anything except for the 4 deer that were standing in front of my truck when I left. I give up.......   :dunno:

Nothing much doing today. Windy and rainy..rain gear got a workout for sure. Plenty of bear sign and a handful of woodcock that made me wish I had my over and under but no deer sign to speak of yet

It started on the 27th of September......I mean I give up trying to figure them out. I'll still go, just not to thrilled about the amount of deer I see.......which is very few.

Keep at it Ron. Good Luck!

I am done hunting in NY until I get back from WI on November 7th.    :pray:

Bucks should be pretty well heated up by then.
