Here in my area of NY this year we are going to 3 points on one side. I hope to see a real differance in rack sizes in about 3 years.

Wellsley - NY really changed some stuff up this year. Like moving bowhunting up 2 wks for So.. zone! Yay! I think the 3pt rule is a good idea. I dont hunt the Catskill area but in right between the Catskills and the Adirondacks. Are there a lot fewer deer down there? I know where I am the buck doe ratios are all messed up......

Raz - Ooooh.. something like that. I lost a freezer when I was gone for a bit and lost a whole deer plus and a mess of specialty smoked stuff. There was a lot of tears on my part but I think the ol man was a bit happy :D Ill get you some tho. ;)

Oh Geez, I do remember hearing about that. Sorry that happened. Venison and the processed venison is very dear to you I'm sure. It always was/is to me.

I'm in the northern catskills and we have lots of deer. I often will sit and watch 30 deer. With not a buck with them. Yet there is a good number of bucks but mostly 1 1/2 old. What county to you hunt in NY.
