Re: UPDATE

Guys I am hoping things change so I updated the info to maybe. Hopefully the gas prices will fall and you all will be able to make it, but I totally understand. My brother-n-law will be joining us also. He is a great guy and a good hunter and he will be traveling to Illinois with me this year. Everyone say a prayer for the gas prices to come down so we can all get together have one heck of a good time. grin.gif

Re: UPDATE

Luke and myself are definately out reguardless of gas now.

Since we both had "kitchen passes" for that weekend already, we arranged to do a little bit of bear hunting locally on that weekend.

Its rare when we both have more then one day off in a row to hunt together so we are taking it and not looking back!

Put me on the list for next year and we can give it another crack.

Thanks!

Re: UPDATE

Well I know I won't be going but you all have fun for me! Besides the fact that my mom doesn't like the idea of a girl going to the Adirondacks with a bunch of guys I have never "met", I will probably be helping out a professor by helping her drive a bunch of backpacking class students to a trail and then backpacking with them.

Re: UPDATE

Yes still have the perulator. I would say bring whatever you want to share for food. I am sure we will have plenty. This started out like we were going to have a lot of people but has dwindle quickly with the gas prices and other things. So let me see if I have this right ...

Dan and guest

Nybuck & possibly brother-n-law

Bucknrut

Dave

If I left anyone out let me know. Too bad more won't be there.

Dan there will be a couple stands out in case a sneaky bear wanders through.

Re: NY Smackdown II

Spent some time at camp yesterday making a few preps. We were driving home and about five miles away from the camp we were coming around a curve and saw something standing in the road. I speed up and its three bear. Looked like a mother, last years cub and this years cub. My wife was pretty excited. Hopefully they will make there way over to camp.

Re: NY Smackdown II

Me! Me! I am in. As it stands right now, I will be driving up to our camp friday night late. (Don't think you want me coming in at 1 am) I will then roll up from there in the morning on Sunday morn. I am going to try and get out early on Friday so if I can make it earlier on friday I might just drive up through. I will probably have to leave in the early afternoon on Sunday though. (I have to work monday. frown.gif ) So I have a few questions:

1. Do I need a tent or something to sleep in?? Beer <--- acceptable?

What food do you guys need me to pick up? I am more than happy to provide some eats, just let "the rookie" know what I should get. Are we going to go hunting? If so do I need to bring a stand, or is the hunting all done by time I get there? Not sure if you guys go out on Sat night and sun morning to hunt or not.

Will I know when I am there via the directions, or what should I look for when getting close? Will my cell (nextel) work, maybe a number. I know lots a questions but I just want to be sure. cool.gif

Re: NY Smackdown II

That is cool. I will send you directions, just pm me your email address. Beer is acceptable just not before hunting or during. You can bring what you like. We most likely will have plenty of food but if you want to bring something that is ok. Saturday night we are going to a little resteraunt for dinner. We have plenty of room for sleeping, might want to bring a sleeping bag. If you have a small target, 3d or something that would be great, the more the merrier. A couple guys are going to hunt bear. That is fine with me. NY state liscense required. Dont forget your bow. You said your coming on Sunday, did you mean Saturday ??? If you want to come in at 1 AM I don't care just let me know. I will wait up for you. Nextel may work, service is pretty spotty but we will see. When I send out the map I will give you my cell phone number.

Re: NY Smackdown II

Just a thought ........ On Sunday there is a 3 - D shoot about 20 minutes from the camp and 5 minutes from the thruway. If thos e that are coming would like to go to it, we can leave early in the morning, shoot and I can take you to the thruway (fonda-fultonville exit 28) if you are interested. It is just an idea, let me know or at least think about it and then we can decide when we get there.
