Opening day on a Sunday! Gotta love it!

Opened the 27th up north......going on Saturday to spend the morning in the Adirondacks. Good luck to all.

Hope to get out at least for part of the day, afternoon hunt maybe. Good luck!

Thankfully it has cooled down some. Definitely can't wait.

Good luck boys

I dont bow hunt NY anymore,,,go for a walk with the rifle once in awhile Weather looks good

Hope that You guys are having cooler weather for hunting and just living. People in the South-east USA still got summer time blues! 94° yesterday and probably the same for today ( FRIDAY the 28th) GOOD HUNTING!

63 right now Jim itll get down to 48 tonight

Good Luck everybody!! I can't get out in the morning, but I intend to spend some quality time in a brush blind in the afternoon. They're predicting mid to upper 30's here Saturday night, so I wouldn't be surprised to see some scattered frost Sunday morning. Good luck again and to everybody else that's hunting.

I'll be in Westchester county Sunday and Monday. Chenango county Following weekend. Good luck to all.

probably sometime on sunday.... just to get out there. we'll see. good luck everyone! -ted

Bxrecurve15, I'm in Otsego Co, but I hunt Chenango a few times each season. A couple of my buddy's have a camp in Bainbridge.

Lost my best property here in NY this year, but enjoying exploring new ones. Eager to get at it sunday morning. Good luck to all you guys!

Sorry to hear it woodshavins. I lost a good one this year too. 500 plus acres that I've hunted for over 30 years. Sold to a real estate developer, no less.

I'm waiting till Tuesaday or Wednesday. The outside world won't be so crowded. Besides I'll be making breakfast for about 150 people at church on Sunday.

throwback I'm in Bronx county, so I do most of my hunting in Westchester. My camps in McDoughna right down the road from your buddies. Great hunting and well worth the trip. Get up almost every other weekend year round.

Throwback: Seems to be a problem here in the eastern part of the state! Can't have 3 trees in a row without someone feeling the need to flatten them for junk box houses or strip malls! Did some time driving around the central NY area this summer. A lot of beautiful land out there. Great small towns. Maybe when I retire I'll have a closer look. For now, its small woodlots and a couple huntable state parks.

Did anyone notice that the Implement Descriptions For Big Game Hunting is missing from the 2017-2018 Official NY Hunting & Trapping Guide? It is available at the official nydec site on line. bvd

Its raining, good thing to see, will keep it cooler. Luckily I missed last weeks heat wave and now its nice (and bug free) again. Leaves are green though, of dropped brown early from the ash. Hoping for an opportunity to get a shot at an early season buck here in CNY. I also got another report that the bear seen around here is still here. :D

Going to be in the 30's tomorrow morning here in WNY and I will be out enjoying the start of another season! Best of luck everyone and be safe!

Doe that I took Friday morning. Good way to start the year

Not sure why my pics always come out sideways?

Rick, you start the season like that every year since we've been hunting together. C9ongrats buddy!!

Congrats on a beautiful doe, Rick!!

Good luck everyone!

I knew you would knock one down early. Nice going Bud...

5 point that I shot this afternoon in northern NY

Rick

Where up North Rick? Tough bowhunting in the Adirondacks. Nice big deer, JT lots of space between um!

Would SOMEBODY ( Puh-Leeze & Thank Yuh) flip Rick's photos? I got Arthur in my neck and tilting is kinda painful! Mercy BOW-COUP! Batman

Had frost on the punkins last 2 days here south of Buffalo. Saw a nice bear taken today by a "wheelie" acquaintance from church down near Angelica.

Scheduled for my back injections tomorrow morning so I should be ready to hit the woods in about a week to ten days. Meanwhile I'm chasing steelhead if I'm up to it. nybubba

I live in Black River, around the Watertown, Fort Drum area

I hate it when I double tap... sorry for the double post. Hope this works for you BATMAN! -ted

Thanks Dao

Nice buck Rick, congtats once again!! You're tearin' it up, buddy.

Got my shoulder mount back from the bear that I shot in Quebec this past June. I’ve been very fortunate this year.

Deer camp 1 week away! Looks to be a wet one.

Lunch is ready to go. Just need to prep my dinner contribution and pack!
