    This is my buddy's property that I got permission to hunt in late September. I ended up only hunting it once in the early season. I put this camera out in front of my stand in early October and didn't touch it until today. Here are the highlights. You can see my climbing sticks in the background and the glowing line on the night pictures is the lifeline. All pics are from the Covert MPE5. Can't wait for next year!

    Definitely looks promising in there for next year! Isn't that something about the lifeline, never would have thought.

    Great looking bucks! Are the Lifelines designed to glow like that? I have four of them and have never noticed the glow.

    Edit:

    I went to the HSS homepage and found the reflective lifelines. Not sure if I like those as many trespassers and I have every year. They would either cut it or try to steal the stand.

    I would have hated myself when I checked the cams and saw that first pic...only because I didn't hunt it more. Awesome pics

    Thanks everyone...yes I did slightly hate myself for not trying to get out and hunt it more, but next season should be a pretty good one if these deer stick around.
