Well....due to a new work schedule..my 12 hr shift schedule has been moved. For 2009...I work Wed-Fri one week, next week Wed-Sat...5pm-5am. Since Jersey still has NO Sunday hunting, the only days I will be bowhunting in January will be Mon/Tues.

Basically, I have 15 days off a month and work 15. Plenty of time to hunt and fish but not around the "normal" working crowd. I'll be Zone 4 hitting Stokes and surrounding areas heavy. Anyone want to tag along just PM me. Maybe I can convince Iron Mike Ciccone to join me...

Enjoy the hunting fellas, keep us all posted.

I might take you up on it, Don't know yet if I'll have gas money.

I could probably get there for the 17th? I'll be outa town  the first few days of jan.

I have the "GO" for any and all Saturday's in January. Please keep me updated as to what the plan of attack is.

I'm flying out to see my wife in Oklahoma on New Years Eve and will be gone until Jan 11th.  I'll try to get out with you guys after that.

Are we hunting Zone 4 on Saturday, January 3rd?

... mike ...

January 3rd sounds darn good to me.        Let me know I'll tell Bucky, Alex, Reiner, Larry, and Steve.        Hope most of the TRI-STATE TERRORS will be there.          

The third sounds ok to me. I just have to get my 09 licence. I'll call Reiner.

By the way Reiner and I  hit the woods this afternoon at our zone 6 WMA. We cut tons of deer tracks there. Lets keep this place in mind for winter bow guys. We also saw about 25 turkeys, cut a couple bear tracks too but not the numbers we saw last year up in zone 4.

Great! Looking Foward To It! Someone please inform me of meeting time and location.

Larry, any rabbits or squirrels? Mike, we usually meet at JUMBOLAND on Route 206 .

Hi Everyone,

I've been avoiding this thread because again this year, I just gotta work. I'd sure love to have breakfast with you all again though. Usual 5:30 at Jumboland Tom?

Ron

That's good for me Ron!        OH BROTHER! What are you doing with all that money Bud!!!

Sal would Eric be interested in going? I haven't heard from him in a while and I hope that he is doing well.

I hope I'll be able to make it. I've been so busy trying to get Lee his first deer that I haven't really been on here in a LONG time. It was just pure luck that I popped in and this thread was up near the top.

I have to go to the hospital tomorrow and again on New Year's Eve for some tests. Then I have an appointment with my surgeon next week to schedule my surgery. I have a feeling he's gonna want to get me in there ASAP after these tests. That'll be the end of my season, at least with the bow.

I sure hope you can make it Eric. I'll keep my fingers crossed and put in a word for you to the Big Boss.

Spending it faster than its coming in, that's what!
 

No, we're going to Kalamazoo this year (Jan 30th-Feb 2nd) and there aren't enough days left between now and then as it is!

I'd love to get out there and show you guys how it's done but, I know very well that if there's a group of guys anywhere in the world that can get together and kill some deer.... Oh yea, those are different guys... sorry, you guys will just have to do the best you can!
 

I still want to meet you guys at Jumboland. So is it Jan 3rd or the 3rd Saturday in Jan?

Ron

I don't think I can hunt Jan. 3rd...my mother-in-law is coming up to visit, and the wife has already told me that the only way I'm getting out of the house is in a pine box.

But, I might be able to sneak out early to head to Jumboland for breakfast.

HUH?     Pine Box?   :eek:   What's up with that Eric!!??

Bring your mother in law with you Eric. I'm sure she might make a good driver. She can drive out Bear Alley.

YEH YEH BEAR ALLEY!!!!          :eek:
