  1. That too bad about the miss... but there is still plenty of time to score. The NY season opens in a little over a week (10/16).
  2. Great buck / story. Congratulations!
  3. Just a couple more weeks until the NY Archery season opens... All of the stands are ready! Sorry I do not have any good trail camera photos.
  4. Hey Everyone... Just checking in. Sorry for not checking in sooner. I was away for the weekend and last time I signed on to the site (8/30) the teams had not been posted yet. I am OK with anything for the team name. Just as an fyi I typically do not post to the forums a lot but have been active on the site (mostly reading) for over 7 year and plan to contribute to the team as much as I can. The NY season opens 10/16 and runs until just before Christmas.
  5. I have had a Rhino liner sprayed in the 2 trucks I have owned (2002 Ford Ranger & 2004 GMC Sierra). I can not say how the liner held up in the Ranger as I barely had the truck for 2 years. However, I can say the liner in my 2004 Sierra is still in good shape after 6 years. It is a little faded and does have a couple scars but nothing major. I had always heard the environment that it was sprayed in had a huge effect on the quality of the liner.

    Roadtrips...

    I also have 2 preference points for Iowa and am hoping to be drawn this year. Good Luck!
  8. I have hunted with Muzzy 3 blade for the last 15 years. Last year I switched to the Strikers when I purchased my new bow (Matthews Mission Journey) on the recommendation of guy that sold me the bow. The Strikers hit at the same point as my filed tips and I had my first ever full pass through on the doe I shot last fall. I did practice a couple time with the Muzzy's and they shot the same as the strikers for me. I just liked the smaller size of the strikers (they fit better in my quiver) and they seemed a lot sharper to me.
  9. As some of you may have seen I filled my first tag on Saturday the 15th. Well this Saturday (22nd) I filled my second tag. Here are the details of the two birds: 5/15/2010- 20 lbs- 9 3/8" beard- 7/8" spurs [ATTACH]5954[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]5955[/ATTACH] 5/22/2010- 19 lbs- 9 3/4" beard- 7/8" spurs [ATTACH]5956[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]5957[/ATTACH]

  13. I have had the Nova (12 gauge) for about 6 years. Yes, the pump is a little sloppy compared to my 870 slug gun but I don't believe it has gotten worse or noisier since I have had it
  14. Mathews Mission Journey @ 60 LBS
  15. The NY Muzzleloader season closes tomorrow (12/22/2009). I connected with another doe yesterday but have not seen a buck. I am going to try one more time tomorrow afternoon for a buck.
  16. Well the NY shotgun season ended yesterday. Unfortunately I was not able to upgrade from the doe I shot during the archery season. I ended up taking 3 antlerless deer during the shotgun season. I say antlerless as the one I took yesterday turned out not to be a really big doe but a buck that had already shed his antlers. The late archery season / muzzleloader season opened this morning and runs for 9 day. Wish me luck in filling my buck tag and getting us some more points.
  17. Just finished putting mine up!
  18. We did this with our daughter who is now 18 months old. There were a couple rough nights at the beginning and a couple nights where my wife was crying also but by the time my daughter was 6 weeks old she was sleeping through the night. As far as I am concerned it is the only way to do it.
  19. Well the NY Shotgun Season opened on the 21st. I have connected on 2 more antlerless deer (3 total including my archery deer) but no bucks so far. I have only seen 1 buck since the shotgun season opened. It was a small 5 or 6 point so I passed on him.

  21. I connected with one this evening. 5 Points for the team! I will try and get the pictures uploaded this weekend.
  22. I had much better luck with seeing deer this past weekend. I passed on a couple smaller bucks and have not had an opportunity at a doe yet. I hope I do not regret passing on the bucks I have seen.
  23. This morning was the opening of the NY Archery Season. It was cold and snowing in my area. Unfortunately I did not see anything. I am headed back out in a couple hours and hope my luck is better tonight.
