WNY bunny 2014 ??

[Knawbone]

Anyone up for a joint venture to Arkport tomorrow? I think it would be good if I had another TG member along while asking folks for info and permission to hunt. I had a really good time visiting with folks up there the other day. I think we can make this a really worthwhile trip, and gain some good quality rabbit access. No big deal if you don't, just asking! I'm sure a lot of us have things to take care of, so that we can play next Saturday.Believe me I understand how it is!

I would love to go with you David but I'm headed to Oswego to visit friends tomorrow . Sorry!

[Wapiti Chaser]

Dave check your pm's

[Knawbone]

Not a problem at all Gerald, I totally understand. Thanks

[longrifle]

Looks like a nice day for a walk David, keep us posted.

[Knawbone]

I need to go this morning and blow out my mother's driveway this morning. I thought it might have warmed up a little outside by now, but it;s staying frigged and windy. Tomorrow the temp. is suppose to hit forty ( if you can believe that! ) and is looking like a better day to be outside. I will continue my scouting tomorrow if not later today. I now have the state lands mapped and will check out those areas as well. I will also re visit  the farmer and find out where his 60 acre farm land is located in the valley. I'm wagering that it will be our best place to hunt Sat. the 11th. Will also ask for permission to hunt that overgrown orchard and hillside. His wife I talked to the other day indicated that he would most likely give us the go ahead. I'm getting physicked guys, this is going to be good- I hope!

Knawbone, please do not post individuals names or properties on open forums.Some land owners can feel that is a real privacy invasion.If there is an individual you want to tell send them a private message.You can lose a lot of properties this way.

[Knawbone]

Thank's Swampbow, never thought about it being an issue.

[Stone Knife]

I have my Bunny arrows ready  

[Knawbone]

I just got mine ready too Jim, hopefully we will  put them to good use. I didn't get up to Arkport today, but will go tomorrow for sure.

[Knawbone]

Thank's again for the heads up Marvin, I edited the post.  

[swampbow2]

Knawbone, I just would hate to see the hard work you've put in getting permissions lost. Thanks for your efforts and I'm looking forward to meeting you and the others I don't know next week. Hope this weather continues to improve as I really need to get a little practice in this week !

[Knawbone]

Can't see something like that being a real issue on this particular forum,but I suppose it's a possibility. I suppose if there were more trad archers in the Hornell area that hunted or new those farms, or the farmers themselves were frequenting archery web sites, then it could definitely be an issue. Wasn't too worried about it, but thanks anyway Marvin........ it was good food for thought!

So are we still on for this weekend and if so is the time and meet location still the same?

[swampbow2]

I hope they're not getting the snow in Arkport we're getting here right now ! I got some practice in yesterday afternoon ; I need to see some VERY large rabbits Saturday.

[Knawbone]

Everything is good from my end Alex. There saying right now that it's suppose to be 40 degrees or higher for Sat. and Sunday. Iv' got one farmer that say's he'll let us hunt, and one other that we'll have to stop and ask. I found what looks to be a pretty good piece of state land if we lose enough snow or for some reason need another place to hunt.

 We should do a lunch like we did last year! That was a great lunch!!

[longrifle]

Sounds like a plan on the lunch,can't wait.

[Knawbone]

Ok, what's everybody bring for lunch Sat. I was thinking of making a venison stew, but I don't know how Id' keep it hot. Anybody got a 12 volt Microwave oven     Seriously though, Somebody brought hot chili or something like that last year, but don't know how they kept it hot. I think it was stone knife. The next hunt we'll have to have rabbit stew..........right guys!!!!!  So anywho, for you fellas that didn't lunch with us last year, we all brought a little something to share for lunch. Let's toss some Ideas around and see what everybody comes up with.

[Stone Knife]

David, it wasn't me but I do remember it. I'll have to think of something to bring that is warm.

[nashoba]

I think it was Gerald who brought the hot dish last year, if I remember right he just had the crock pot covered with blankets to keep the heat in after warming it at home.
