Guys I'm running behind on posting this season as I've been dealing with a few issues boat related etc.
That said I finally got some cameras out yesterday. State of the woods assessment wasn't so good...no acorns again this year no beans planted this year so early season viewings are not possible in fields as corn is planted and it's rather stunted due to the extremely dry summer.
I'm limited on properties as I lost 2 last season so I'll be concentrating more on my lease and property that I killed railroad buck on last season.
I'm sure I'll find a few worthy bucks to chase and am looking forward to using the new Mathews V3X.
As picture come in I'll post them,so far just doe and a 4pt have come through on cams
It's still about a month before I get serious and start hunting hard so stay tuned...

We kept a boat on the Michigan side of Lk Michigan and I about died of envy when Tiara came out with the 38 Pursuit. I'm loving yours! Tiara makes a really nice boat.

I always enjoy this thread. Dan I'd kill any one of those but that 10 is purdy.

For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.

That’s gonna be quite the chore in Lake Ontario I was thinking you lived on the shore in NY lol. Used to live in Toronto in the 80's the fishing was fantastic back then on Lake Ontario, big salmon and big trout. My father caught a 16 lbs brown trout there and we caught some pretty big Chinook as well. In any case happy fishing on your beautiful boat and based on your deer pictures looks like you will have a blast Whitetail hunting this year as well, best of luck :o)

Back to property near my home this morning frosty and cold 29 degrees. I passed on an 8 pt that had short tines but was a big bodied deer and all rutted up He came right in to a scrape 20 yds in front of me. Saw a 5 pt and that was it ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/LsZBrBGn/10-28-pass-8pt.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/C1GCKMh0/10-28-pass-8pt-2.jpg)

I made an error in judgement this morning and instead of hunting the property near my home I changed my mind and headed to my lease Another zig when I should have zagged This buck showed up in front of both my stands this morning along with 4 other buck at one time or another and there was some chasing of doe going on I'm headed in there this afternoon and if need be tomorrow morning I did have 2 different 8pts pass below me on the lease the 1st looked like a shooter ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/63khMX0M/10-29-mill-8-pt-1.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/htD1yMLR/10-29-mill-8pt-2.jpg)

Things have slowed up with the unseasonably warm weather not much to report the past couple days a couple doe is all
Guy across tracks from my lease hit an 8 pt late yesterday and I got a call it ran on to my lease. I went this morning and helped him look but no luck seemed to be a muscle hit very little blood and the deer never beded.I hated having to tramps through my property I've stayed out of but felt it was the right thing and may need it reciprocated some day

Been real slow here too Dan. Ive been seeing deer but other than a couple rubs that appeared overnight you would have a hard time knowing it’s the end of October here. I’m headed to Ohio for 2-3 days. Hopefully I can fill a tag there and things will pick up when I get back.
They say everything happens for a reason.
For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.

You definitely have more patience than I do Dan. Same thing I hear from my pards about my all days sits. They say they can't do it. They hunt for a few hours in the evening and mornings then sit around the house. Just as easy to stay up that tree as it is to sit at the house. Never killed anything from my couch!! When they start moving about last week I only have about 2 weeks before that rut kicks in and things get very slow, may as well capitalize while I can.

Another slow morning a doe and fawn saw a good 8pt across road when walking out Did have some activity on my camera at property near my home small buck a couple doe the 8 pt I passed on last week and another good buck but that was still dark and in the distance so couldn't tell if it was the guy I'm after. And just now as I type another small buck at scrape in rear stand so maybe things are starting to tick back up? ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/gJnKVBTq/11-3-dark-buck.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/zvhSMH5y/11-3-scrape-small.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/RhTqNvLP/11-3-short-tine.jpg)

In a tree right now, 72 degrees. Yep. Can’t kill them from the couch. ETA - after I posted this I saw 3 bucks in the last 30 minutes of light. One good'un. No shots of course but still good to see cruzin bucks. Dan, what's on that rock next to your stand? Is that your doing?

Yesterday afternoon was warm and no movement until I had lowered my bow and put my pack on
Turned to see a large body 50 yds a way
Pulled up the binoculars to see he was a mature shooter only 7 pt but mature heavy and wide with a huge fork on his left beam
He was with a doe
I figure he was tending her and got up at last light
I managed to take my pack off pull my bow back up and nock an arrow
The doe turned and went back towards thick stuff and a train came by and he turned and vanished with her
Was exciting none the less!
In stand now had a 4 pt walk right under me
Warm and breeze but I’m giving it hell anyway

The property I like to visit in eastern NY Taconics is a ghost town. Another hunter has moved in (literally) and has dominated it, pushing the deer out. EHD hit areas to the south and west hard last three years, so the influx of daylight field edge stalkers and 5PM walk in on me hunters have absolutely ruined a good thing.
I'm afraid the 20 yr good run of NY bowseason visits are over for me. Happy hunting, and best of luck to you guys!
Really enjoy the pics and the reports! Thanks!

With this warmer weather it seems that the majority of the animals are moving after dark in my area.
I'm gonna wait 'till gun.

I'm surprised by that. I thought the incoming weather would have them moving. I'm headed back down to Ohio for the weekend.

That’s been my entire season this year. I drive 45 min to a farm and hunt day in and day out. I come home and check the trail camera by the feeder in my backyard and there is a a massive 12 point

Nice One Dan. You saved yourself one miserable cold windy day in the stand that's for sure.
They say everything happens for a reason.
For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.

Skane is spot on
Not a young buck. I’d gladly let the air out on that one!! I would say the gene pool probably needs to be sanitized of that one. Look at the left side he poked the eye out of the other. Typical deer can't fight them without losing something and they go down hill fast after losing eyes or jaws. Goood luck and shoot straight y'all

83 years of life and the hassle of Cancer recovery nudged me out of the woods this year. I put a new scope on my rifle but have not sighted it in. I did, however, watch for your annual post and tracked it to the end hunting vicariously with you. Thanks again for your annual post. Makes an ole guy grin!

You have some nice bucks there!
Wish I could say the same but I've had camera's up on my place for about a month and haven't gotten a pic of a single buck so far. I have lots of does on the place so I'm sure I can put a couple of them in the freezer before bow season ends in February.
It's just odd about the bucks though, I don't know if the neighbors had a really good year or they dropped antlers early or they all bugged out of the area.
