  1. Another thing I have to get Thanks for the reminder:D:eek: I met the guys in BPS in Tennessee when it first came out. I think they got it from a salt mine in Utah.
  2. Big white acorns!! Real acorns are fat this year (big snow a coming?) so I've been saving them in a plastic bag and sticking them in the freezer. I'll defrost them around the rut and see how they work then:D
  3. At least do this! Regardless of the brand of camo or camo scent free soap to make your camo really last do this: Turn all your clothing inside out. This will protect the 'finish' of the camo material from the abrasions of the wash and dryer tumbling:D
  4. I hope this is isolated and does not spread: Personnel from the NJ DEP's Division of Fish and Wildlife (DFW) are investigating a possible outbreak of Epizootic Hemorrhagic Disease (EHD) in deer in Hillsborough Township, Somerset County. A dead deer fawn was recovered by Fish and Wildlife biologists on the morning of September 7 that did exhibit visual signs of having EHD. The pathologist from the DFW's Office of Fish and Wildlife Health and Forensics is performing the necessary laboratory tests in order to confirm the preliminary diagnosis. EHD is a common viral disease in deer contracted from the bite of insects called biting midges. The disease causes high fever and hemorrhaging from the mouth, nose and eyes before death. Deer may go to water to cool off or drink. It is not spread from deer to deer. Humans cannot contract EHD and although some EHD symptoms are similar to those for Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) such as excessive drooling, weakness and a loss of fear of humans, there is no relationship between EHD and CWD. The EHD outbreak should end with the onset of colder weather, which will kill the insects that spread the disease. The Fall archery deer season in New Jersey begins in many of the agricultural and suburban areas of the state on Saturday, September 8. Hunters observing deer acting abnormally are advised to not harvest the deer, but rather report their observations to Dr. Douglas Roscoe at 908-735-6398. For more complete information and details please visit http://www.njfishandwildlife.com/news/2007/ehd.htm on the division's Web site. It was so hot today I did not go out for the Doe opener. Heat may keep more folks aways especially in light ot this news:( (oops! can mods move this to deer hunting? Thanks)
  5. Next Saturday in NJ Does only but that'll be fine:D
  6. for me it is one I can take cleanly and confidently. I won't stretch for a marginal shot regardless, there is always tomorrow;)
  7. who's land is it? If public you spot can be discovered at any time. If private are the trespassing. If public they have the right to be there just like you.
  8. Not yet here But temps are starting to slacken off so it can't be long now:D
  9. Nice to have both Nice looking WT there too
  10. Average High ulgy 3 ptr and a basket 6 is all. Hope the rut turns up the big ones that have been hiding:D
  11. Not enough options We have a doe season first so I hold out for an big old doe if I can. For bucks I wait until the have a decent rack but I don't worry about P&Y or whatever. Mostly I like to es deer while hunting and then depending on the situation I will shoot or just watch 'em
  12. Show it to the DNT and let the law take care of it
  13. I have that and a small .22 I use the .22 with shot as a snake gun. Nice plinkers for messing around. Not for anything beyond that of course, Fun to have, easy to shoot
  14. Tried it but............ I found it tended to clog up the feeder. I think the supplements are quick to absorb any moisture so now I just use straight corn out of my Kenco Feeders
  15. Not too long for Bow season! Got B*B*Q sauce?
  16. 2 bucks come in a lot. One now only 4ptr but growing fast hope it adds to it. Have a potential 8ptr. Should have better definition on growth and ultimate outlook next 30 days I reckon
