Nice pics. I love the strutting jake. He looks tasty! I just made a batch of smoked wild turkey chili with some legs from last year.

Yes they are out of season until May 1st. I am sure the law is in place to get the fish back in the water ASAP. I have never caught a walleye fishing for browns. I would take a pic too!

I have had both a LUND 1625 Rebel XL and a LUND 1775 Impact. I love both boats. The Impact is wider so it handles waves better and it gets up on plane easy.

I run browning cell cameras and have had zero issues. The first browning cell cam I put out was in July of 2021 and it is still on the same set of lithium batteries! I have never touched that camera.

I chased them the other day. I cooked them in a stew with a turkey leg. That was pretty good.

I have never been off 9” but I have definitely been off more than 1”. It is common across many ML brands and models. https://www.muzzleloadingbullets.com/Muzzleloader-Accuracy-s/1891.htm

This is my first thought. My Accura likes a fouled barrel.

At the 11th hour too!

That is awesome, congrats on the buck. That’s my kind of fun processing a deer in a hotel room with nothing else to do.

Hochul Vetoed the Holiday hunt opt out. https://www.newyorkupstate.com/outdoors/2022/12/gov-hochul-vetos-bill-allowing-upstate-ny-counties-to-ban-holiday-hunt.html

My wife always busts my balls when I say horns. Yeah yeah yeah ANTLERS. It just doesn’t sound as good.

I had some midday doe movement.

The bucks I saw were grouped up too. The movement last night was great considering rifle just closed.

I use dawn and hot water as well. Shooting with a fouled barrel is the only way my CVA will shoot consistenly. If I shoot it on a clean barrel it will be off several inches. Shooting 1 cap seems to do the trick. Then I spit swab between shots and it shoots great. I started using BH209 this year and I love it. It seems to shoot better than pellets and it is definitely cleaner.

You should also send a message to the Governor with this link and ask her to veto S6510/A7785. https://www.governor.ny.gov/content/governor-contact-form

The September hunt is doe only and only certain SZ WMUs. The Holiday hunt is just an extension of the normal late ML season in the southern zone. So any tag can be used. There is some legislation in the works that may allow counties to opt out. The NYSCC is urging people to ask the governer to veto S6510/A7785.

Here is a better pic and the neighbor also sent me a pic of him last year.

35 opening days and I have never seen a truly big buck until today.

BBD!!!

First shot in 4F at 6:30 on the nose.

Very nice!

I’d give him a year of aging in my freezer!

Good luck tomorrow. I am taking my sister in law out trying to get her first deer.
