Still sporting bone
« on: Jan 23, 2012, 09:21:34 PM »
Hey gang.   Haven't visited the site in a while.  Here is a couple dandy 8's my wife and I saw yesterday while doing a mix of driving and photographing in Letchworth State Park yesterday.  We also saw many doe groups.  Both archery and shotgun hunting is alllowed in much of the park.  If any of you are familiar with it, you will understand why this area is probably some of the best publlic land in NYS to take a trophy.....the most rugged terrain imaginable surrounded by a sea of cornfields in every direction, as well as antler restrictions.   These two, while great deer are babies compared to others in there.  That said, I don't think I could let either pass...LOL

Surprised they still had snow down there.  Rain melted everything in Rochester yesterday.
I'm bound to stay where you sleep all day, Where they hung the jerk that invented work, in the Big Rock Candy Mountains.
