Post any changes or comments you want here for the 2010 N.S.Challenge----
Myself and a few other N.S.Hunters will be in Watkins Glen this weekend Aug.7 anyone want to join us for a meeting is welcome......
-
I sure am getting the itch for bow season...I would add the 2010 card like ice shanty, all antler points visible in photo and a tag must be on the deer
only things I can think of right now, have fun at the Glenn...GO NORTH!!!!!!
-
I agree with Huntny. Maybe make bucks and does worth more points if taken with a bow to compensate for the extra challange? Add one point to the score if taken with a bow or something like that. Just a thought. Cheeks out!!! 8)
-
How about we ban all cross gun kills if the person is not disabled/youth? You know me just trying to stir the pot. ;D ;D
-
LOL DROBS ;D

I think mainly this years tag shown in pic,any-one know what color licenses will be this year......GO SOUTH!!!!!! ;)
-
Better pictures is my request. Most pictures you couldn't see the points on the antlers
-
Could request front and side pics of the antlers?
-
I like the 2010 card idea and multiple pictures of the antlers.. And only the hunter and deer in the pictures... None with hunting partners...
-
Right--one thing looks like we all agree,,Good photo of the hunter ,Tag and deer-close up,,---
C.P.---i'm scouting out your area----LOL---i'll be killing brain cell at the race all weekwnd,,anyone in the neighborhood stop in--inside the track--site F-552.next to the Labatts trailer,,
how about one thread of BS and stories,,,the other of Photos and point tally only !!!!!!!
Also a few Judges on protested deer---and their desision will be final---I won't be a judge---and some who is nuteral like drobertsin marryland to be the tie braker if needed??
keep the ideas coming--
-
I like the two separate threads for it. This one will serve well for the BS...Not that we do that much...LOL
I agree with the picture being taken with the tag. Hope I get to use one of mine this year....
-
Hope my camera has a wide-angle setting!!!!!! ;)
-
I like the better pic idea. Not a huge fan of the card thing though. I carry enough stuff in the woods that i have to remember let alone a card but thats just me.

Yea I never get into internet competitions that require a card either,I don't have a printer!!!!Last year alot of deer shown with no tags,so couldnt even tell if it was killed the same year.............
-
How about weapon,hunter, and tagged animal all together in the pic? That way you could probably do away with the card. Most people don't take a pic with the weapon on display. I just think it makes the picture much more memorable but that's just me.
Also a few Judges on protested deer---and their desision will be final---I won't be a judge---and some who is nuteral like drobertsin marryland to be the tie braker if needed?
I would be honored to do it if need be.
-

Just might do that, I've got tickets in the Green Grandstands for the weekend ,last time I was there Little E won the Bush race and I hope I bring him good luck this time!
-
I vote for Pictures of Tags in photos
-
Looks like good photos will be required,
any idea's on points,,,extra for a buck or if you take it with a bow---whats you opinions???
I'll post last years roster soon---
-
i'm pretty new to the hunting bit but i have had an easier time taking deer during bow season. in my experience they are still very predictable, come out during the day, and aren't running scared because all their buddies are getting blasted. it all comes down to scouting and finding the BEST spot, where YOU can make the shot. anyways, following that logic i'd rather see the points allotted evenly without giving preference to those taken with a bow. unless it is taken with a bow during gun season. that is quite a feat imo, maybe someday i'll be that good...
-
I forgot who made the team Banners but they are great-----winning Team will make the losing Team banner,,and must be displayed---!!!!!
-
I made them...I was bored this winter after the season...I agree winning team gets to make the following year banner...Sept 27th come on, put the cameras at our camp in Newfield today will check them out in two weeks, love stealing points from the South...!
-
I also make a motion that everyone getting in this year put the banner on their profile...
-
i think the North grabbed a lot of points in the south---come on over to the Glen this weekend--not far from Newfield..
-
Is there anyway someone could make a map of NY and have a number on the map where everyone is from??at least close to where their from????
like # 10 is joe and it shows he is in the center of fulton county??
-
couldn't we use the DMP numbers? And how about the point system? Last year does where only worth 1 point right? What if it was something like any deer is worth 5 or 10 points, bucks get additional points for the antler points. So if you took a 10 point buck it would be worth 20 points total. Then if the other side ends up taking 2 does they would match the buck. It just seems like with last years point system the side with the most bucks could race to far ahead. Not all of us get a shot at a buck during the season. Just my opinion to try and keep things competitive.
-
I like that idea Deposit sounds fair and i think it will keep things interesting. Anyways im 5R saratoga county if anybody does make a map
-
Deposit--That sounds OK--I'll try to get it all ready by Sept.1 --if we can't get a map we could do the DMP # after your name,just to give an Idea where you are-
-
Here is a PDF link to a decent DMP map. I am note sure how to post it here because its a PDF file (my cp is being funny this morning I can't make it an active linek)

All new guys tryout first Chris.LOL J/k Im sure joe snag will add you to the list once he see's your post.

The Chopper county!!!!!Cant wait to see if Paul Sr fails against his son this season.......... ;D
Doesnt the tryouts start in 2 weeks for newbie entrants Drob?????? ;)
If you fail the bow course your prolly still eligible,but if you do get used to it cause all north hunters are getting big helping of failure this year!!!!!! 8)
-
And how about the point system? Last year does where only worth 1 point right?
Does should still be 1 point still IMO!!!!
Not all of us get a shot at a buck during the season. Just my opinion to try and keep things competitive.
Especially less for the ones that only shoot standing still deer!!!!But the adding the bucks points worked great last year and was very competitive all the way to the Norths Miraculous late season come back...... :o
-
Actually it might help the South with more deer here!!!!I would compromise and say 2 points per doe........ ;)
-
We need a strict cut off date for sign up and a way to make the teams more even as far as how many hunters per team..
-
Why should a doe be any less than a buck? (besides the antler points) They can be just as tough to hunt (if not tougher when there are a lot of them...ever hear of the old whiley doe?) It takes just as much nerve and effort to hunt and take a good doe IMO. (ya and not just pop off shots at a running deer butt shots and blowings its legs off as well as just wound it. ya lets not take the time for a good shot for a quick kill...sorry had to say it...again)
-
LOL He gets to ya huh Deposit....kinda like a rash that won't go away.
Hey Raquette, you may want to recruit a few more guys for the south...Looks like 37 south to 24 north, and we kicked your butts. And I never even saw
A deer.... ;D Let the ribbing begin...LOL
-
Yea, kinda like that deer fly that just keeps buzzing around your head that you can never swat away. (no offence Corp just differences in opinion).
-
If you fail the bow course your prolly still eligible,but if you do get used to it cause all north hunters are getting big helping of failure this year!!!!!! 8)
don't think im going to fail, and i dont think i will need to get used to failing
-
don't think im going to fail, and i dont think i will need to get used to failing
Just BS'ing,like I said ya cant flunk/fail the bow course!!!!!The North/South challenge is a different story....... 8)
-
I gave the buck a cease fire last season,this year its war on all!!!!Kill-em even if they wave there white flag in defeat while running away!!!! ;D
-

Here it goes...I have last years bow tag which WILL BE FILLED one of the first 3 days of northern bow.. ;D ;D To put the south on the board quick with some points.. Then Im going to thin out some of these little 5 and 6 pointers around here... The last 2 years I hunted just one deer. Now that he is gone there all fair game... ;D ;D ;D Let the games begin....
-
LOL, OK maybe I'll have to go to the southern zone this year for bow season. Always did have an easy time shooting one in the game farm....LOL
Then come back north and shoot another "monster"....With no one responding to my resumes or giving me the "over qualified" excuse. I'll have some extra time to be in the woods this fall by the looks. Good thing I stocked up on broadheads last fall.... 8)
-
All I know is you guys are lucky this stone cold killer does not live in NY. ;)

Same game plan for me this year,aint no buck gonna be safe,ITS WAR!!!!!By the way is that just a North thing about using last years tag..... :-\
-
I am even gonna leave my window open this year during bow season!!!!!This 7 point was lucky I was on my "failed" trophy kick last season....... :'(

Yes CP, only good for the few days in September. After October 1ST everything is this years.
The southern zone bow doesn't open until October.
-
wow! i can't believe its almost time for the challenge to begin again and i must say that i'm stoked.kind of sux i don't have a tag for early bow,and my brother now has the same days off as i do so the whole sharing a bow thing prolly won't work out this season,i guess i'll have to get it done during the gun season is all.as for the challenge rules i do think that it would be a good idea to be a little more strict with making sure the tag is in the pic,i really don't remember having a problem counting any of the "buck points" last year but multiple pics of the rack prolly wouldn't hurt,i also think that maybe getting more points for does wouldn't be a bad idea too.either way i just hope that this years challenge is as much fun as it was last year and i'm sure it will be i moved a few stands into some new territory that looks to be pretty promising.good luck all...GO NORTH
oh yeah i'm in area 5H warren county, i hunt in johnsburg and stony creek
-
Well I know the new Z7 is gonna be itching to draw some quick blood. Should have the last week of bow off of work (my personal favorite time to hunt) to do some deer slaying. Hopefully i can get up north too and maybe whack a quick doe the last couple days of sept! Bring it on!
-
I bet that new bow sling will bring you good luck this season Stuck. ;D
-
I dont remember so do the points have to be an inch long to count.......
-

Hey, those are fighting words.. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Feed them and they will come................................... 8)
-
And by the way dont shoot doe or you just shot your buck making factory!!!!!! ;)
-
Shoot them all.. The price of beef is way to much.... ;D ;D ;D
-
Your right CP, I'll just have to shoot all the bucks....The state will come in and artificially inseminate them... ::)
Hey, those are fighting words.. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
LOL, I had a lease with another guy on a farm in Granville for a few years. I've never seen so many deer at one time as I did there. One evening I
Found a good runway and from 2:30- around 4:30 when I started my walk out I saw over 25 different deer go by me on the way to the fields.
Even after shooting a mature doe, they just kept filing by. But there I go again killing the buck factory....

It works on my land,never a bad day of not seeing deer!!!!Tons of em here,because not a doe shot on my land in at least 5 years....Now if i could just get my neighbors to do the same there would be a buck for everyone yearly easily!!!!!!But some hunters are greedy I guess,cause its brown its down on bordering property.............. :-\
-
My theory is if ya kill mommy deer ya just killed at least one buck next year,you kill a baby ya got a 50% chance its a button!!!!You all seen my trail cam pics last season,didnt see any comparison posted on the deer population in Ny thread.... ???
MY Buck Factory!!!!! ;)
(http://i254.photobucket.com/albums/hh114/JETSTER1/eightdeer.jpg)
No offense to ya but not gonna be able to compete with your herd of deer in your trail cam pics because we dont have half a truck load of corn out for them to eat. Trust me if i put up a feeder in front of my cam i would have a herd of em in the pics too :-\
-
Getting back to the topic of the challenge. Huntny and I were talking and we came to the conclusion that making does worth more points wouldn't be fair to the north. We don't have the doe permits like the south. Not trying to be a whiner, just trying to keep the playing field somewhat level. Cheeks out!!! 8)
-
Just got home from Watkins glen,killed off most of my brain cells but their growing back slowly,I have the list of the Hunters that signed up lastyear that will be in also the tie breaker guys that were late-----I think each side has about 75 members--right now we'll have a 100 per team sign up------but if one team gets the 100,,,anyone after that will have a choice of going to the side with the least,only if they want--??hows that------
WhiteTailfreak10990------Your IN----what side?????
-
I have A sign up list from lastyear--all from lastyear are in--PLEASE don't anyone sigh up yet--we'll have page for that Sept 1st....
Sept.1 will be the new sign up page the BS page and Rules-------
-
I gotta pm that someone thinks that is corn so I removed the pic,its actually a pile of C'mere Deer!!!!! ;)

Not to be judgemental but last time I checked it was Illegal to feed or bait wild deer in NYS. >:(
Must of took Pics at a Petting Zoo out of state or something. ::)

That shouldn't be a factor cause the North can cross the Mason Dixon Line to Hunt Does in the South!
-
Do you know the deference between a Northerner and Damn Northerner? ???
A Damn Northerner Hunts in the South! >:(
-
I gave up being a dang northerner about 8 years ago. Two stolen stands on a private lease of land, supposed bird hunters shooting at deer with their
shotguns in a field I was sitting in a tree stand watching....Calling DEC got us asked not to come back to the lease we had payed for. Just to many people contending for to little huntable land.

You should know about how I feel about the stupid NY ban of feeding of deer cause of "Deer Down's" syndrome!!!!!!!Exactly like I feel about the NY certified fish-bait law................ ;)
When they wanna "EXEMPT" my property taxes I will even allow them to shoot all my doe to "HELP" feed the poor in these rough times!!!!!!!!Untill then they can kiss my mule........ 8)
-
So because you don't like a law you just don't follow it?? So when do we see you on the front page at the bank teller....
God I hope you don't have kids....
-
Now that's good stuff! ;D Cheeks out!!! 8)

It may me your property ,but if you didn't buy your deer at a cattle sale then they're not your's! ::)
-

Good point howesfc, I live right on the NY Mason Dixon, I just consider myself a Northern Hunter, there may be hope here that the North and South can get along... ;) ;D...I admit I have a preference point for 7A and I always get a 7R...those right there are game changers, good to see the chatter picking up on here, that only means one thing...The Season is right around the corner...I think we are all getting the fever bad!!! Sept 27th!!!!
-
Just talk en smack about the Damn Northerners,We got are fair share of local poachers here in the South! >:(
I took it the way you meant it ;D. Like my comment of hunting in a game farm. With the difficulties of finding huntable land and dealing with a lot of
people, my hat is off to those that are successful in the southern zone. It amazes me the amount of people that do so much to get access to small pieces of property.
Soon enough here where I am will be the same way. With the extreme tax raises in the last few years many local families have lost the properties that have been in the family for years. The sale is almost always to a out of stater that posts it and doesn't allow hunting. Couple that with the state's idiocy of Forever Wild lands
I'm afraid my son won't have anywhere to hunt by the time he is 30. So yeah, given the opportunity to go to a southern zone property, I'm a dang northerner.
We all are in the same boat, southern zone hunters come here to find that big Adirondack buck, and we go south to shoot doe with permits. It's all good....
-
Upstatehunter I hear ya ,I live right next to Karr Valley State Forest 9P and it gets hunted real hard.
I use to be able to hunt my Father inlaws dairy farm 300 acres it went under and got split up into small hunting camps.
When the guns start going off the deer all head to the posted land.
I've got two nice wall hangers over the years so anything under 8 points I let walk but thats me.
But I'm a meat hunter so I go to my buddies posted land in 8X which is over populated and harvast mature does.
Come icefishing time I beter have some home made deer jerky to share with my buddies or they might get pissed. >:(
-
I lost my hunting land in PA due to outta state hunters buying it!!!!! :'(
-
With the extreme tax raises in the last few years many local families have lost the properties that have been in the family for years. The sale is almost always to a out of stater that posts it and doesn't allow hunting.
you hit on the head there upstate,and the worst thing about those out of staters is they post there land but they feel free to use the neighbors land as they please.some property sold next to my mothers house sure enough its now posted,but the guys were out riding there 4 wheelers on my moms property right under my buddies tree stand opening day of black powder last year,then when my buddy told them that there was other hunters on that land and they were on some one elses property they just shrugged there shoulders and took off.then they drove right up into the pasture where my mothers horses were right under the fence and up to the road...no respect i say! and its bullshlocken.
if thing keep going the way they are pretty soon the only people that will be able to afford to live here in the adks are the rich out of staters.
i could go on all night,sorry for my rant!

They doubled my property tax 2 years ago!!!!How they say they're not the thieves is beyond me.......I can see inflation but doubling the price!!!!!!! ???
Then they tell me I cant feed a deer!!!!!!!Maybe I will just buy a cow/pig every year to fill freezer and give up hunting.........If feeding them is still legal..... :-\
-
Not feeding the deer is two fold CP. Not just CWS, it also has to do with over population. Sure some areas aren't over populated...NOW
But if they allow people to feed deer year round and then people adopt the don't shoot a doe idea we have a problem.
Like on Long Island where thousands of dollars of vehicle accidents and estate grounds, and state parks were and are getting lost.
You say you were in PA., They had a severe problem with over population. Costing thousands of dollars in insurance dollars.
I'm all for conservation, which sometimes means deer will die from starvation. We start playing God and saying we know better and we see problems
like disease and property losses.
As far as your taxes, Mostly stems from area properties being sold at over inflated prices, and re valued at a 20-30% increase. Thank your politicians
for driving farms and industry out of NY. And the influx of NJ 'ers. If you only knew what they pay in taxes. So what your paying, to them, is peanuts.
So if it means your here and struggle to pay your taxes of a NJ person buys it at auction and just loves how cheap the taxes are compared to home...
Who do you think they want here....

Look out North I got 6 deer tags today only cost me $106.00 Bucks and I can get 2 DMPs signed over to me also! ::)
Now all I have to do is lock and load and wacth my lane. :)

How did you get 6 howesfc I thought 5 was max

North is toast this year and they know it with the new rules!!!!!! ;D
-
Bow, Muzzleloader, firearm, 2 DMP...I only count five...well then I get QDM DMP for up North and a property DMP for down South...absolutely rediculous, I know, but as we all know, our state hates deer...Just hope the wifey gets lucky this year, I should enter her into the N/S Challenge, if I don't get her in I know she'll have beginers luck and whack a monster...I know three deer will get me through the year with parties, family dinners, smoked roasts and jerky for early spring Crappie fishing/ice fishing...no need to fill the rest uless I am giving it to someone who can't get their own...gotta save one for Sept 27th-30th for last years tag...that is high pressure hunting...
-
North is toast this year and they know it with the new rules!!!!!! ;D
What "new rules" are going to affect the Northern Hunters? I haven't even seen the "new rules" only talk...The "new rules" are gonna help the South keep up to the Superior Northern Boys and Girls...so you don't get too frustrated...we need to let kids like you win every once in a while so you stay interested...LOL :P

Tags shown this season will do the trick IMO!!!!!!! ;)
-
If people are cheating in this "just for fun" friendly interstate challenge, then there are real issues, I was only a tie breaker last year but I followed the competition and I don't believe people cheated, but Tags should be on the deer before they are removed from the woods anyway...still not gonna affect the outcome...most people are on here because they love this and most people are on here because they are pretty good at it...gonna be a fun year and I can't wait till I'm nestled in my viper...lookin and listenin...I'm tryin to recruit one of my other hunting buddies to get on here, he will represent the South and should give you some points...
-
How did you get 6 howesfc I thought 5 was max
I got 5 tags today and last years Unfilled Buck Tag makes 6.
Us Southern Boys can head North also!
-
Nice howesfc! Thats what I like to hear... ;D
-
I'll be in the NZ to try to fill one of last years tags at least one day in September. I've got a climber and a NZ spot with good deer numbers. My brother got his first buck there last year ;D
-
we need to let kids like you win every once in a while so you stay interested...LOL
That's good stuff!!!
I hope to help some this fall for the north. Deer sign looks a lot better than last year, actually have food in the area for the deer to stay around.
Now I just have to come up with the small fortune for the license....Might be selling an old gun for the investment.....
-
How much is a bow tag??--watch out South now I passed the bow coures---LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!

Bow tag is only 21$ for 2 tags which isnt that bad i guess

I got a 6S DMP today... First time in 4 years...
-
88.00 for a super sportsman I believe Joe. Saves some money.
-
Guess it's time I go donate my money to NY, with the wife wanting to hunt its gonna cost me double...women
-
Thanks upstate,change back from a 100.00
-
Joe, when are you making the North/South rosters?
-
I'm in for sure. It was fun watching how the challenge went throughout the season.
-
Huntny30---soon,,I have everyone from lastyear and we'll have a roll call,,also I'll need everyones DMU where they reside---most rules are the same ,and this year we'll have 7 officals------
-
Does our DMU decide which team? You already have all the officials?
-
No--doesn't matter where you live---when you sign in just state when team you want to be on---I have 7 officials--3 north -3 south and a nuteral---these guys will keep an eye on the entries and any problems at all--I will be nuteral and keep track of the point--
whe we have a roolcall just put you DMU next to your name so we everyone has a rough idea where you are in the state---
-
I know droberts is the neutral who are the North / South 6 officials? Do youhave a date set to start building the teams?
-
I hope to help out the southern crew with more then the 3 points I did last year. It was a Blast last year looking forward to this years challenge.
-
North officals are----Issaih,upstatehunter,and Buscksnort,,,,south is Deposit,Raquettdacker and Howesfc--nuteral is droberts---sept 1 st will be the rules post and the sign up----
Anyone with any Idea's post the now so we can hash over them-----
-
Every thing looks good Joe.. I would still like to get together so I could pay my dues from last season.. ;D I feel like I owe some one something...
-
I agree, I owe someone something. There's no way to get many guys together during deer season. Might not get many guys out for ice fishing, but I would be good with that. What about a group cottontail hunt, if someone has a place we could go? I'll buy shells for team north 8).

Do we get uniforms and a whistle? :)

How about some sort of end of season venison BBQ. I'd be willing to donate (if I am luckier than last year that is)

I've got the last of my back straps soaking in brine right now but I also found two roast and some stew meat.
Do they still have that stupid law about getting a permit to keep deer meat after August?
If so I'm guilty and God forbid if they find a ten year old canning jar of venison! ::)

My dad owns a bar...with lots of space...
-
Our snowmobile club house is in the middle..

Cheap beer...even Keystone in a can Raquette! :D However, I'm a little classier I go for the Busch Light... ;)
-
I never heard of that law, I mean LALALALALALALALA I didn't hear you. They'd have to take mine by force. Last years roasts make great jerky, but with the vacuum bags they're still good to cook too. I'll be making some jerky to keep me warm on stand on on the ice. I'll be drying these this weekend. They'll put a bite to the jerky for sure, but I won't eat any more stuffed with goat cheese and mozzarella ;D

I'm in 4J, Colonie. Pretty central, but don't have the right kind of place. We only stuffed two of those one habanaro and one caribbean hot, I thought that if I got all of the seeds and membrane out they might be edible, I was wrong :o

That all sounds great I love spicy stuff. Are they from a World Hottest plant. I grew them last year and man were they hot.

Maine has a Mexico too.
Why don't you guy's do a potluck type of thing and have a meet and greet in the spring every year. We do that here for all the guy's that go to 2 different deer camp's. It's on a much smaller scale but we get together the 1st sunday in march at The Cap's garage every year. If you can make it you go and bring a dish and your beverage. we have a "cup" that's get passed to the camp that has the largest deer for the season. It's a great time and no cost. You just need a place to have it. Just don't do it on the first sunday in march so I can crash the party. LOL
-
Anything is fine with me--I'm in the bottom of the V where 5h anf 5J meet 6R----like it's 1 mile wide here------
-
Good idea Bogman!! I would give up a day of ice fishing to go. We should have time enough between now and March to come up with a day and place
that works for everyone.
I'm on the eastern part of 5H.

My Sister in Law made some of those in her garden. I luv hot peppers but didn't realize just how hot some of them get, I bit right into one of those babys and thought my tongue was getting blistered, the juice somehow got in my eyes, I thought I was gonna have to go to the Emergency Room; those peppers are absurd,, not for human consumption...
I'm in WMU 6K
-
Yep..go to love peppers like that......but in small amounts ;D
I'm in 4a
-
Here's where I've got everyone so far. You can save the picture and add marks using microsoft paint, or I can update it. Starting to look like the Sacandaga area is central.

Sorry Stuck I'll get you in the next update, I'm off to bed now. Shot the bow for the first time since last season, almost ruined an arrow with the second one so I put the bow away after two two shot groups.

Nice!!!!!No wonder I have different views on deer population,your all up north of me and used to no deer.................... ;D
-
Got a stand up today where my camera was getting my buck pictures. Also got the girlfriends 223 zeroed in at 50yds so it'll be on paper when I get it on the bench to dial in the right load. Put about 100 rounds through the 22 between getting it dialed in and the two of us doing some plinking. Had one little buck on each camera, might have been the same deer. Only have one camera out for this week and I left it on video for the first time. The second Moultrie is going back, the display is out... again >:(
-
Here is what I have so far---this is not the Offical sign up,it will be sept 1st on a new page----post your DMU where you live and I'll get it on the list.

7f here, is there a post with the rules for this freindly competition? I havent killed a deer in 3 years but have a hot new place to go...unfortunatly shortly after the bow opener I will have back surgery so I will be at it hard until I cant any more!!

Well I'm swimming in tags this year, at least I can make a good sized sandwich out of them if I have another 1 doe year, maybe I can mix them into the hamburg ;D. I've got 5 in hand plus 1-2 DMAP's available and my girlfriend should get a DMP our third WMU. Almost more tags than I saw deer last season, definitely more than the 3-4 small bucks I saw. Truth is I'd be quite happy with a matched pair. Id be ecstatic to get skunked and have my girlfriend take her first.
-
new to mhf. (obvoiusly) count me in for team north. i live in 6g. lookin forward to the entertainment this challenge will surely provide while out of stand and on the clock this season. any other 6g locals out there?
-
Welcome to the site Ramrod.. Lots of fun going on here... ;D What is your weapon of choice where you hunt??
-
thanx. cant say as i have a fav weapon. i live for the challenge n thrill. i was raised a rifle hunter then frontstuffers came into the scene so i took that up, which lead to interest in bowhunting. so now im a well rounded hunter w a variety of freezer
filling utensils and a bitter gf that dreads the thought of septembers arrival. every year i set personal goals (or challenges)
and this years is to tag a buk w my newly inherited great grandfathers winchester 30-30 born in 1906. man if that gun
could talk. lol
-
Good deal. Looks like you will fit in well here...
-
Welcome to the forum. I beat the GF heat by getting her to go with me a few times a year. My brother has taken his first two deer over the past two seasons with my fathers 30-30, it's a great hardwoods and brush rifle.
-
Got ya in the challenge Ramrod-----north needs a few good guns----------------Welcome
-
Welcome ramrod.
-
Joe, What is the total tally of hunters so far North vs South?

That picture must have been taken up North cause we don't have small bodied eight points that small in the South! :)
-
thanx for the warm welcome but I'm really ready for sum cooler temps. i received my 1st 30-30 marlin at 15 n have drawn a few foamy blood trails w it and usually dust it off a few times through out the season. more so in the past 3 yrs thanx to hornadys leverevolution ammunition. good stuff! there is just something tugging at the insides to line up the beads on ol mr backstrap w a 3rd generation rifle that's over 100 yrs old and has more stories in its steel than all of us could shake a switch @.
i have actually gotten the ol lady out on the trap field this summer quite a few times and she has done surprisingly well, and made comments about going hunting w me...so... we'll c. she was not raised in an outdoor lifestyle but she def eats her share of venison. I'm going to try n figure out this banner thing I'm not all that technologically talented.
-
Ok, here is the official banner for our referee's to put on there screen as well, so we know who the Judges are on both sides, also drobs needs a banner to fit in with us Yankee's! 8)
(http://i588.photobucket.com/albums/ss324/huntny30/NvsSlogo.jpg)

I like that huntny30. Hopefully I can come up with something. Not to savy with the internet but we shall see.
-
No Drobs that is your banner, just save it, shrink it and put it on your page...and how are you not too savy, you have a dancing cowgirl that gets all of our attention daily!

No dice huntny30. It seems to come out the same size no matter what. Its probably only what the signature line will allow for a pic.
-
Try this one for Referee's and Joe can use the other for the official page...

Not to bad I really like it. 8)

I like the referee post. Looks like the challenge is already heating up.Hope everyones having a good summer. Its defenitly been a busy one. Count me in as a north in in as a northern gun again. We need to keep the title in the north. As long as Issiah comes back we should be set. We got some dandy bucks around us this year.
-

Not hard to referee a deer for the North when they mainly only got 2 points................ :o
-
I've got no problem harvesting a spike I'm proud of what I harvest regardless of the number of points. The old deer aren't good eating anyway.

Yep!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!But I am going for more points................. 8)

Still no answer if a point has to be an inch long to count,or hang a ring on it????????????? ???
-
It is an inch, look at the new thread for sign ups, it has the rules, it says..." Spike horns must have one 3" spike other points must be 1" on racks same as NYS law."

I'm here BuckBlaster, I've yet to see a good one here on the farm, just a couple 1 1/2yr olds so far I did see a nice 8 over your way last month. I've gotta find myself a nice one to chase around, I'm getting frantic... I'll hunt hard regardless, can't wait to get going
-
Don't fret Issiah I hadn't seen a deer here around the farm with head gear all summer, Dad had 2 8 pt's and a 10 pt all together while I was in Maine right out his window. I went to see my uncle this week about hunting his farm that adjoins ours and he has been seeing a nice 8 with a screwy rack that is dropped on one side along with a buck with "huge" antlers on a regular basis. Hope to get a cam over there this weekend. Maybe there should be a far east category for us Mass. flatlanders. ;D

If you mean Sandy creek thats where I salmon fish!!!!!!I always hate the early morning ride from Pulaski with all the deer around in the morning...... ;D
yes sir. im 4 miles from the river and never fish it. i fish the lake a couple times a summer but mainly stick to the hard water.
there is quite a healthy herd of deer around these parts but they smarten up quik and bury deep once the rifles start singing. i actively partake in population reduction but i can only eat so many :D
-
Not if you have 8's and 10's running around the farm Bogman!!! :D
I got a report of a good one crossing the road where I hunt. Plus I know of three others. Hope they like apples....
-
I have a huge acorn crop here again this year. Apple's seem a little thin here but we did have a lot of late frost.

It's good for the deer but not the best thing for stand hunting here. Last year there was so much feed that they hardly had to move around to get what they needed. I could rake a few up and send you a bag if you need them. ;)

Hehe I may have to take you up on that. The corn around here this year was crap for the most part. They are just cutting it down now and grinding it up into ensilage since its been so dry. The beans did okay in some places you can just tell by looking at the fields from the road. Now if only I had those big healthy acorns I would be set. You know like a fat kid loves cake.

thanks Raquettedacker for the instructions.i was having a time trying to get my avatar to show,it was just a bit too big.looks great now. :)

wow corn gettin cut already. Should be good for your early season goose adventures ;D If we're lucky we might get one or 2 late sept hunts over corn if they get around to cutting a field or 2. Most of ours dont get cut until about halfway through oct. sometimes even later

I was on a tight schedule, we went down to DC to do two days of training with our new Selected Chief Petty Officers, had people with me as well and they don't hunt...would have bored them to death...
-
Reserving 10 points for the north 8) He might grow big enough to shoot by the 27th ;D

We need a new map.. No one is using the thread with the map on it.... ;D ;D
-
Halfrack33, I think you should give that buck one more year to mature ;D. Just hope he doesn't walk within sight of the road before you get to hunt him.
-
Well if thats all you see you might as well shoot it. May want to hold off a few days to see if there is a better one..... ::)
LOL, bet your eyes got big when that picture came up.... ;D
-
I hope that Buck gets to sow some seed before someone puts him up on the wall!
-
Hey halfrack33 so what time do I need to be at your house on opening morning? Looks like if we get to the spot by 5 we should be okay.lol ;) ;D ;D
-
Hehehe this thread said BS and i didn't see too much happening, so figured I'd get the south going. NOT REALLY FROM MY TRAILCAM... Wasn't trying to lie to my teammates, just a practical joke. Funny thing is I went to check my camera today, and this bruiser was on it. I chased him all last year and only saw him once from 100 yds with my bow, and he's gotten bigger ;D
Okay, so this one REALLY IS FROM MY CAMERA... I saved the wrong pic, there's a closer one that he looks even bigger on, I'll have to try tomorrow when I'm back up at my mother's where I save all the pictures. There is one other 10 pointer around that I've seen here and there for the last 3 years, but no trail cam pics yet.

we will see what happens, sure would be nice. I'm hanging a stand tomorrow by this camera in shooting range of about 5 trails.
-
Got a few more little bucks on the cameras. One is a decent six point. I only got three pictures of the 10 point all in the same sequence. Haven't seen him since. Lot of sign coming to the apple trees now. Three weeks to go and let the game begin. Nice buck half rack good luck tagging him. Ya southerners better prepare for another beating
-
Well, it looks like I may have a small delay to my hunting season. Had a ladder slide out from underneath me. Fell about 16-18 ft and miraculously didn't break anything but sprained my wrist and hyperextended my elbow. Can't straighten my arm out yet, but hopefully it will get better asap!
-
Get better halfrack!!
-
Yea no kidding halfrack. Not a good time of year to fall from a ladder. Hope you get better soon.
-
Better take it easy, The season is very close. Hope you get better.
-
Hope you get better quick. Don't push it, let it heal up right. On a lighter not can I get 2 points for a G2 over 10" ;D. Pics(and vids) to come later from the land of the 7's (apparently). I better get practicing ;)

Man sorry to here that hope you have a speedy recovery. If you worried someone is gonna shot your 8pt, I can come up and take care of that for you. ;D ;D I'd say you got pretty lucky for falling 16-18ft to come out with nothing broken.

We are waiting stka. :o ;D ;D
-
Thanks guys, very lucky. I kinda slid and Hit the conduit on the way down with slowed me down enough to not have a freefall. I've learned not to call any deer "my" deer though. I'm waiting to see a 10" tine from stka... get the pics rolling!
-
It may have been a slight exaggeration but it's a long one, check out my pics and let me know how long you think it is.

Glad your OK, falls of that height can have a lot worse results!!
-
Sorry to hear that.. Hope you feel better..
-
Get well soon Halfrack, the North shall rise again!! Cheeks out!!! 8)
-
