    Yeah I know what you mean. And although it would be dumb, there are some states I wouldn't put it past.
    My only concern with rifle season is the property I am hunting on is surrounded by 3 really large properties that lease out to "outsiders". Going to have to load up on the hunter orange, even if there is a fence between myself and those hunting around me. Haven't really had to worry about that up to this point yet.

    Came close on a decent 8 point this morning. Was quartered to me hard. I think he caught some ground scent and got nervous. He hoped out to 50 yards or so and walked off. Changed spots for tonight. Already have 3 fawns out and about.

    I AM PUMPED!
    I put in for a deer-hunting trip offered by The Fallen Outdoors, and I got picked for it along with another veteran. It's in Scio, NY, which is just under an hour and a half away. It's on Nov 6th... (archery season) and I will be able to use my Xbow. It's 20-minutes from where the two largest bucks ever taken in NY were shot (way back in the day) - so, I'm hoping one of their descendants will walk by me. If I can shoot a doe (don't know any of the property owner's rules, or if there are any restrictions yet)... I will.

    Hunt was a good one. Shot a doe will get it posted here in a second. Seen the 8 im after just stayed in the thick brush about 40 yards out. I let him get past me a bit and tried to call him in but to no success. Just check my cell cam at my grandpa's and the 8 I seen this morning was back this evening plus a bigger 8. Will be back there in the morning

    I just saw on score card that you weighted that doe, that's a big one! I think I shot bucks smaller then that! Haha

    Ya I have been weighing them the last few years for the trophy doe contest. I haven't seen if they are doing it again this year but I sent them in the video. Biggest one I have entered the last 3 years. Usually 100-110lbs. We did get one last year during gun season that was 136 or something like that.
