    NO as there are no wolves in NY … just a huge coyote… still 15 pounds smaller than the world record of 80 pounds

    Looks a LOT like a coy-wolf.

    My wife and her friend have made rugs out of about 5 so far.

    He looks like he's over 5 feet tall and at least 180. The Coyote could be almost 50# tho...

    Two if you buy the full season license. One if you buy the 3 or 5 day nonresident licenses.

    This was a bust amd a half. Got out of work at 4:28, pulled into Farm and Home at 4:40. Was told I had to wait until 5pm to purchase tags. Apparently they cannot hire an employee or train someone how to use the system between 2 and 5pm. The eve of second shotgun season to boot.

    5:06pm amd someone finally shows up. Automatically states that no tags exist, were gone opening day. I can believe it, but not convinced it wasn't a case of just got on the clock, not in the mood. Guy that offered me the opportunity to hunt has a friend that works where they sell OTC tags. May have him double check tomorrow.

    Otherwise it's a bust, unless I want to try for muzzleloader. Which would require me to buy a muzzleloader and tag if they have them.

    Um, no!

    One of the best things about out of state hunts is meeting and drinking with the locals at the bar. We’ve met numerous people who have offered their land to us just from BS’ing, buying beers, and being “real” about what we are here for. Just have to be open and able to talk to people. The worst you can get is a no but you still get to meet awesome people.

    I did this same stuff in Iowa and got some excellent connections with cool people. One person has a ranch in SD and offered it up to us to hunt. Pretty awesome stuff.

    So true, so true.
    Small town bars are just SO cool.

    I hear that just about every night where I hunt. When dragging a deer out at night, almost every time I'm being followed/watched by at least a couple. I think I told this story before but the only time they freaked me out a little is when I was gutting a buck, and about 15 yards away behind tall grass, they were standing there growling. There was no moon, and it was pitch black. WTF!
    Other stuff happened that night too. I had another buck walking up to me, bowed up wanting to fight. Wouldn't leave despite me yelling at him. I came close to shooting his ass, but he finally left.
    Then as I was hanging the buck, I had several bobcats getting closer and closer to me despite me yelling and shining lights in their face.
    It was the weirdest night of my hunting life, and I was relieved when I finally got in the truck to get the hell out of there

    I’m convinced I won’t ever find another town like this. This is my 2nd time here and I’ve got 3 phone numbers and access to close to 1000+ acres. 90% is farmland but also 260 acres of private north in the mountains.

    The people are what make this though. If you are a good human in this area good things will come. We go to the diner for breakfast and bar for dinner and Every local has asked us how we have been doing each night when we walk in.

    I think I’ve heard this 5+ times this year. I should learn to hunt them but have no idea where to start.

    I’ll be leaving the cabin shortly. After I park I’ve got a little over a mile and a half to go to get to my stand. I’m glad I have the bike.

    Temps are below freezing this morning and I’m glad to see that.

    The major movement period (moon underfoot) is 5:56 to 7:56. This could be a really good sit.

    I hope the bucks do what they did yesterday morning.
