Thanks wyo I can only hunt this farm for a week or so. So as I stated in the thread time is the factor im trying eliminate. To pattern the deer i count on the farm hands that bow hunt the prop. Also as I said earlier and prolly what most already know .... All bets are off when the rut hits. That...

I knew b4 I asked I would hear a lot of theory and some conjecture. I also knew the subject of ssl would not be a "typical" style. To me none of that matters. All that matters to me is input that pertains to what I'm pondering. It's all good. The good the bad and the ugly. So let me reiterate...

Yobuck Thanks. I don't know if you are familiar with western ny. It has very big hills more like mega gargantuan hills as far as the eyes can see big hills a lot like PA. I disagree with you about 2000 acres being " not that big" it is and its way more than I could ever cover on my own. The 2000...

Bravo 4, Thanks. I think you get what I basically wanna do. Your point about the buddy never having to set foot on the farm would be a great advantage because I am not to comfortable with asking to bring a friend in. Just don't like to take advantage of a good thing. As to you keeping your...

Im only planning to give input from long range and recieve the same. I dont find it unethical elk outfitters make a living doing this

Thanks im just kicking the idea around like i said in my introduction for the thread this might be frowned upon not that i care im just looking to up my odds by have a dude know where i am and telling me if im wasting time or should move remember im useing a shotgun most days and my shots are...

yeah i can spot myself. I really want to cut the down time by having a guy inform me of movement and I can do the same. I can't count the days Iv sat and not seen a thing all day. Just to have someone tell me a herd passed me by on the other side of the farm. We use radios all the time in the...

I'm pondering the strategy. might be more trouble than it's worth. I'm a dreamer and a schemer with no regard for the ways of others unless I feel it works and suits me with respect to my hunt. Love to hear advise, sometimes and most often I am familiar with what I hear but just as often I hear...

I think the advantage is not in know whats in the ares but more whats not. Of coarse the other advantage is putting the meat in the freezer faster. 2000 acres is a lot of ground to cover with little or no insight on whats ahead of the shooter. gullies and hills make it tough to see very far...

I work in Mn most of the summer. Iv met a lot of hunters up there, some gave my permission to come hunt. I do hunt Floodwood for bow. Love it there. so nice and the economy is great.

Yobuck, Thanks. I live in NC but NY is my old stomping ground. I get to hunt this farm only because i have always respected the rules iv become a bit of of kiss *** to the farmer but more importantly he sees I hunt it for real. Unlike some of the other schwags that in the past refused to listen...

Thanks man

I got a sweet farm to hunt in upstate western NY. it's 400 acres and lays at the bottom of a 2000 acre state forest which is on a very very large hill adjacent to the farm. The farm has a perfect view of the state lands south face. Has anyone used a spotter to locate deer from a separate local...

Hello all, I googled hunting with a spotter and hooked up with this mag. I already feel cozy, LOL anyway I work seasonally so i get to hunt deer like crazy. Hunt being a perfect word cuz I don't get to kill many. Big bucks or big deer are just not in my woods when the crops get cut . That puts...
