Awesome!  That second pic is beautiful, thats some pretty country ya'll have up there.  Is that an 835 I spy?  Def. a Mossberg!

This is REAL NY...not that crappy city 6 hrs to the east!!! We have pretty good deer/turkey hunting here in the western Finger Lakes Region of the state. I was really ticked that I forgot my good digital camera this morning. Yes, that is an old woodland 835, just like mine.



Same vineyard/winery property in the fall.

I may have to see if I can find some public land up that way sometime and see that beauty for myself.  My mom is originally from New York.  Do not quote me on this but I think she was born in Ithaca. I know we have been to Ithaca, Candor, and Marathon.  Got a good buddy from up there and we went stayed a week on the East Delaware in Downsville Trout fishing.  New York is an absolutely stunning place, when there is no snow, haha.  It is on my list.

Ithaca is in the eastern Finger Lakes Region about an hour and a half to the east.  There happens to be a 2700 acre chunk of state land less than a mile from where we killed this bird today. I hunt it occasionally. If you ever need info about it just message me!!!

NY can be some very beautiful country if you are in the right areas.  The finger lakes region is some of the best in the state. I'm north of Niagara Falls in Niagara Co. . It is pretty nice out this way if your in the right areas. I do some hunting in southern part of the state. Southwest of the finger lakes. Allegheny Co, Wyoming Co. Very nice country as well . If you ever come out to NY let me know as well!
