Guy West Mill was wetter than hell today but it usually is, even without the rain. I used 4wd in most of the holes. 15 years ago it was real bad. I haven't been on Constable Bridge road near Wescoat since the summer and I don't no how that is right now. There used to be a deep hole about a...

Steve He is the guy that I used to duck hunt Wescoat Bogs with further upstream and he and I both had tried to get across the Sleeper in that area years ago with no success. But nowadays, with the benefit of GoogleEarth, I can see why we never made it. The spot you picked with the blowdowns...

Not being a sports fan and finding parade watching to be a certain cause of suicide for normal males, I headed out in the rain this afternoon to take the muzzleloader for a walk. I headed down West Mill Road from 206 with my buddy Jack. Jack is a lifelong hunter and woodsman and his dad was...

Happy New Year to everyone. May more people learn this year to enjoy the simple, basic satisfaction of just being in the woods. Drag a friend out. Scott

Always been a big hooters fan myself. Oh I am sorry, I didn't realize you were talking about music. :mrgreen:

I lived in Gibbsboro from age 0-25. Then I moved to Pestletown which is where I parked it. I am the secretary for Square Circle Sportsmen in Gibbsboro which is across the street from the Foxhills but I don't know them. I jumped off that Kresson platform a lot as a kid but I never actually dove...

Nice photos. It brought back a lot of good memories. I grew up in nearby Gibbsboro and used to swim at Kresson, Cedar and Sunshine Lakes in Voorhees and Lake Worth and Lake Pine in Lindenwold. Kresson and Cedar Lakes hold my first recollection of "cedar water" The pay-to-swim concept was...

Deer in the "core" of the pines appear to survive on a diet of air, pine needles and sand. Actually, in those areas they survive as browsers, eating woody growth from shrubs and trees with whatever grass and scrub oak acorns they can find. Patterning them in that kind of environment is hard...

Google Earth is probably the best free site with seamless color photos that will give you lat/lon beneath your cursor as you drag around the photo. You can adjust the lat/lon format too. The aerial photo base for NJ is the NJDEP 2002 aerial maps. They are high resolution but if you want even...

Quote: "First off, what business do rabbits have wearing pants? Second of all, since when did you start befriending rabbits?" Jeff Well Jeff, I'll have you know that all the timid woodland creatures are my buddies. I have them over for dinner quite a bit. Or is that: "I have them...

I have seen those and fortunately, they don't grow everywhere. My biggest nemesis in surveying and hunting is multiflora rose. It seems to be more prevalent outside of the pines, which is a good thing. Multiflora rose is not only hard to walk through, it is hard to cut survey lines through...

I swear by Filson as I said earlier. However, for a slightly less expensive option some of my rabbit buddies swear by these: http://www.mulehuntingclothes.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=5&products_id=1 They do make chaps for about $35.00 that I haven't seen. My buddies all have...

Figured I would be first to start the thread. Merry Christmas to all of you and your families. :) Scott, Dottie and the boys.

My guess is no. The access is an overgrown road off the old White Horse Pike and it is private property. The adjoining owner keeps a pretty close watch on things. I accessed the track by walking over from the HRF MC property while at a few of their parties. You wouldn't want to do that...

Steve I posted about this before. A good chunk of the old Amotol property is owned by the State and it is part of the Hammonton Creek WMA. Most of the track is in the WMA. Here is the link to the map: http://www.state.nj.us/dep/fgw/pdf/wmamaps/hammonton_creek_west.pdf Scott

Well last Sunday my friend Nelson said he can't find the picture. Dooooh!!!! I am going to keep bugging him for any other pictures of Chewtown where his mother's family was from and Dutchtown where his father's family was from. Scott

Great account George. I always wanted to fill in the blanks about that bar and track, now I know. Scott

Tin cloth is Filson's an extremely tightly woven cotton that is waxed. Carharrts are coarse woven and catch on everything, which leads to tears. I still wear Carharrts for work to cut the wind but Filsons for brush. The double tin pants are very stiff and not something you want to wear on a...

You guys had a great day. Looks like a larger version of Parkdale, one of my favorite pine spots. I will try and get to Howardsville this winter. Bythe way in all my years of hunting, here are the only pants that hold up to more than one season of abuse...

Congratulations to your son and you for keeping the tradition alive. I remember each and every one of my sons' deer like it was yesterday and they are now 19 and 20. They have both taken nicer deer than me in their short hunting careers. All local pines deer too. They both started at the age...
