Simply by reading these sorts of threads one can EASILY sort out the douche bags that cause all the hunting accidents we hear about....

The logic they defend their stupidity with is astoundingly accurate with their results.

Don't think you have a lock on something "thick" in central NY as you are likely speaking with folks here that have BT/DT a time or two. We know you are full of chit because central NY, in all that wide open farm land between 90 and 86, isn't "thicker", and damn sure isn't steeper, than the western end, or the eastern end of the state. Visability where I hunt bear in the west side of the 'Dacks is 5 feet in some places......and yes I killed a bear there.

Killing a deer in the Alleganys of western NY doesn't have anything to do with "luck" for me either, as I have a clue, or two, about it.

NY, last season, cold chamber.....and even without your wishing me luck.

Hunted here in NY, my "back yard" at the time, cold chamber....

And here....

Here too....

Managed a LOT of deer when I lived there, like this late season Doe, and with an unprimed muzzleloader of all things....

And this one too.....despite what the "experts" are trying to tell me.

Yeah tell me more tearful tales about how hard it is to hunt cold chamber in the thick stuff.......
