The only work around is to be LEO or an 07 FFL.
(that aside, still illegal to hunt with them in NY)

Just read a bit about it. Seems like one hell of a loophole. Expensive and time consuming, but possible. Probably not a reasonable option for the average person.
Maybe a .22 with subsonics?

"We know there's a rabbit around here somewhere!!"
These two cameras are about 40-45 yards apart, just around the bend from each other.

September hilltop plot broadcast... Aberlasting clover, Fixation Balsana clover, Hunter Rape brassica and purple top turnip. (though not all in this area)
REAL throw and grow.
Wherever she lands, she grows.
The amounts I put down, you could do a couple acres. But when so little of it is actually getting to the ground...
The birds like it anyway.
Speaking of which, that was one of the only things that made me happy this weekend. Sitting in my tree stand sick, in lots of pain, I kept watching the birds take baths in my little water tank. Brought a smile to my face.

Hope you're feeling better soon, FLFar. Nice growth for a true throw & grow! Lots of greens coming along.

Well most of the leaves have come down since I put the seeds down making it look worse. Though when I use the leaf blower in the spring I'm always surprised by how much is growing despite not getting any sun. I blow the leaves off to uncover lots of little clover plants trying their hardest. lol That's right on the edges where "cleared" meets woods.
The camera makes it look bigger than it is, but even still, just by blowing leaves and seeding heavy the patch of green is four, in some spots five times wider than it was last fall. I'll just keep the green creeping wider and wider. I only got to cut a couple trees this year, so I H&S'd a lot more of them. This will make a never ending job of picking up branches, but at the rate I was getting to cut them I figured it would be 10-15 years before I opened it up. I can barely do it now, I know I wont be in any shape to do it in 10 years.
In the spring I need to weed whack the hell out of all the small growth, saplings and the like and pick up lots of sticks. I'm at the point were it doesn't want to blow off because there's just so much holding on to it.

Deer, or lack there of.
During the summer I was seeing a spike and a forky. But it's been a long time since I've seen either, so I guess they've been run off.
I am regularly seeing this buck, while not old, has a nice little rack for my area.
There's momma and the twins.
And momma and her fawn that I saw last weekend.
And that's it.

8 cameras lol
Every early October my cameras go dead. I used to think it was just the one spot where the two of them were. Now I have them all over and it's much the same.
One fall years ago I was talking to a local and he said to me.. "Oh they're all down in the valley eating acorns." Never knew if he was serious, what valley where, how far away this was... but more and more I start to think he wasn't joking.

And after saying I haven't seen the forky in months, he shows up. And runs away.
