Guest watchmaker

Hi guys,

I am a retired watchmaker (with a little more time in my hands, now) and I do bowhunting here in the Island (Long Island, New York) gun hunting for deer and bear in the Catskill and Adirondack mountains and I sometimes go to upper Maine for the bear season in September.

I fly fish the Connetquot and Carman rivers for trout and I do some fishing for blue fish out of Greenport in the island.

I sometimes go for coyote in the winter months to the Catskill area, hunt them with a call and light.

I like to shoot blackpowder guns and revolvers (and collect them) and I am crazy about hunting knives and flashlights, one of my hobbies is to make a very powerful flashlight for law enforcement, called the BOREALIS 1050 lumens flashlight.

I also have some itch about optics and own several binoculars and I have multi scopes (interchange) for all my rifles, for example I have a 3X9 by 40 in a rifle for long shots, and a scope for short shots 1x4 in timber, additionally I have another scope as a spare (one is none and two is one). Most of my rifles are set up that way, even the in line black powder rifles.

Hopefully as I have retired from watchmaking I have more time now to chat in the forums and make new friends.

Respectfully

Watchmaker
