I'm wondering about the boots worn by our campfire friends that are upright challenged when hunting.....I'm wanting to get to the bottom of this falling down syndrome. Come hunt with me sometime. Everyone I can think of has fallen one time or another. I did it twice on one stone rubble slope last year, coming down off Bears Ears opening morning. My son-in-law went down once on that slope. (NW side of the western ear.) There are other slopes my hunting partners and I have taken over the years where falling is just part of getting up or down, even when dryish - let alone wet or snow covered. No need to unchamber if you're already running cold.

Why unload at the truck? The safety's on.

Why unload at the truck? The safety's on. In Nebraska having a loaded shotgun in your truck is illegal and could get you in trouble if you are caught driving down the road with it loaded. On the other hand having a loaded rifle in the truck is quite legal, it allows ranchers to shoot coyotes while checking their property.

never said c ny is hellish or tougher than the dacks. some of you havent read the previos pages. we were talking about thick cover . not that all of central ny is thick.WHERE I HAVE LAND IS THICK. i guess youll be the third person who knows my land better than me. until your invited over , take my word for it. ill take pics of it like steelhead and the other one and maybe you guys can relax. this started about a hot or cold chamber, not about what part of ny has the craziest terrain. opinions are like a-holes. steelhead so big and tough with all his thick cover and trophies, that he made mention of banging my wife. that sounds like he got off the subject a bit. everyone has an opinion here and thats what this sight is for but dont start putting words into my posts, until you go back and read all the previous pages. i hunt to get away from know -it- alls and every crap that life throws at you. you and the dacks sound way to tough for me just like the others. ive been around and i know what the dacks has to offer. none of you clowns still havent asked where i hunt , your just talking [bleep] like the other two. enjoy your know it all buddies.

Why does anyone care if a hunter has a hot or cold chamber if you aren't hunting with them? I mean other than some douchebag starting the thread just to justify their position.

Rhodes Scholarships, never did much for me.
Chenango County.
Beautiful area. I drive through there on 88 when to/from VT getting and returning my daughter. Hiked it a bit. Not overly hilly (flat in some places), and good river bottoms (need to fish that area near Afton sometime.......). Seems to be decent wildlife habitat, and to some degree a lot like the flatter areas of some of the counties in VA I hunt.
Not a bad place to hole up in.
And, yeah, your season is in. Get out there......... it don't last long up there in that area.

From what I've seen, that'd have been my guess of it up there. Again, much like many of the flatter areas of the counties in VA I frequently hunt.
Now, get at it........... IIRC, the NY seasons are rather short.

Thick, steep, remote areas predominate this thread. To me, deer hunting means whitetails, and I've had the most success hunting the edges and have found the harder the country the fewer chances for a whitetail. Bill
