Re: New Yorks turkey tags cost????

Something doesn't sound correct about the $$$$ to turkey hunt in NY. What they are doing would be to SUCK in as many from down south to hunt.................. most would have to pass through NYC to get to upper state NY.

It’s rare but on occasion I wish you could “dial” it up a bit. Is that what I think it is ???? Overall I hunt hardwoods, cedars and pines, some quite thick. When I started purchasing them they were in the mid 6s now mid to low 4s. Both eyes open "dot it" "send it". No finer red d...

Re: What type of flash light do you use?

I don't normally use one but, I do use a red filter for creeping through the woods to try to be stealthy. If I point the light towards the ground I think I am good. Keeping my footpath lighted makes for a more quiet walk. If I am getting close to the roost, I go lights out. :thumbup: Same here very...
