Shawn Leonard · January 13, 2006, 07:14:00 PM

Yeah man, wait til ya see what i am adding also. It should be awesome. I do not want to have the raffle out weigh the reason we are doing this though, we are here to KILL some bunnies and everything else is the gravy. Rick, you do not know how much this means to me and all the guys!!! OOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHH YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! Shawn

Shawn, If we break enough arrows can we have a fire with them ! LOL I agree on the the bunny wacking. Last year we ran out of daylight before spots to hunt.

Wapiti Chaser · January 13, 2006, 08:22:00 PM

Sleepy where are you ?

Shawn Leonard · January 13, 2006, 08:30:00 PM

Bob, I think on Sat. we will start hunting at 12 or so and hit the two best spots, but on Sunday we will get out earlier as I have two more spots down in back of whrer you killed the bunny last year that we set up as safe zones and there should be a ton of bunnies in there. i know Curt shot 4 on one push in there last year!! The thing is the best hunting is the last 2 hours of light. The ideal day would be temps in mid 20's with overcast skies and 3-4" of snow on the ground!!! OOOOOOOHHHHHHHHH YEAHHHHHHHHHH!! Shawn

Wapiti Chaser · January 13, 2006, 09:12:00 PM

woodchucker · January 13, 2006, 09:16:00 PM

OK FOLKS!!! For everyone coming to bust the brush and fling some arrows!!!

Here is a Question,What kind of quiver are you bringing??????? (to hunt with) Everybody sound off!!!!!!!

Shawn Leonard · January 13, 2006, 09:17:00 PM

Bob, Sleepy is down toward Long Island I believe. Sleepy if ya want to take a bus, I could arrange to have ya picked up or a train same deal. Bus into Albany or train into Rennselear, I can get ya ride from there. Larry, I have eaten some hair in my time too!!

OOOOOOOHHHHHHH YEAHHHHHHH!! Shawn

sleepyhollow · January 13, 2006, 09:21:00 PM

Bob, i'm in Westchester co., couple miles north of the city of Yonkers, bout 20miles north of NYC

sleepyhollow · January 13, 2006, 09:24:00 PM

If anyone is going from Putnam or Dutchess county or from Nyack, Nanuet area, I could arrange away to get myself there and back to my place, be more than happy to pay for the fuel there and back.

Shawn Leonard · January 13, 2006, 09:25:00 PM

I should of mentioned my nutters are coming pretty good. I have 3 that spine out 97-100#s and the rest are in the mid-70# range. Nothing fancy at all, a couple are even gonna have 1 shield and two nanners. I also have started the dozen for the LDB and decided not to get real fancy, just a nice easy visible hunting arrow. We can take turns carrying it and shoot these arrows off of it and than we will raffle off the arrows on the last day of the hunt. We can do a seperate drawing even!! I cannot wait , it gets better every day. We have the same company donating the port-a-potty as well, which with Dads Chile is a good thing!! OOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHH YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!! Shawn

Steve -- I'm in Nanuet and am 99.9% a go for Saturday...climb aboard...

Jerry Young · January 14, 2006, 12:03:00 AM

Sleepy, I can pick you up at the Rensselaer Train station and bring you back if needed. Its only 15 minutes from my house.

Guru · January 14, 2006, 06:30:00 AM

Larry,Is this what you're talking about?

Guru · January 14, 2006, 06:31:00 AM

Classic Picture!!!

:D

sleepyhollow · January 14, 2006, 07:27:00 AM

Thank you both Brian and Jerry, it would be easier for me to get over to Nanuet across the TZ bridge to meet Brian as I am only about 4 miles south of it.

P.S.- Brian, I will p.m. you

bjk · January 14, 2006, 08:06:00 AM

PM full Steve...no problem....

Jerry Young · January 14, 2006, 09:29:00 AM

Chuck, regarding the quiver question, I got a sidestalker quiver for X-mas, I'm going to give it a try. I'll probably leave my bow mounted quiver on also.

Last year I think I just used a pocket quiver with field tips. My bow quiver doesn't seem to handle judos, blunts etc. very well. The problem is the brush at Shawn's can get a little intense.

This year I'd like to up grade my fire power with nutters or something similar so I'm thinking of modifying my tube hip quiver by adding some elastic bands to keep it from flapping around. Theres more than one arrow out there from back quivers. Not sure there is a perfect solution.
Shawn; Moe is baking a pie or two,I'll bring a case of pop and something two pass round the fire, :D
