    Little update guys,
    I haven’t been home since I shot those two does. Works been really busy for me, but I’m hoping to be home for a few days towards the end of the month.


    Something a little frustrating is, I have a trespasser who just set up a ladder stand in front of my cellular camera. I don’t know how he missed it, but he stuck his stand right where this bucks been showing up.
    Who waits this long to put a ladder stand in?

    It was awfully kind of him to trim some of the weeds around my camera…

    I had a friend who is also hunting the property spray paint some of the trees in the vicinity, on the property edge. I’ll be sure to properly post things better later.

    You can see the stone wall he had to cross to put this stand in too. Unbelievable

    That's crazy?! Do you or your buddy recognize him? Snap some pictures, rip it down and talk to the authorities.

    Yeah definitely would rip it down and contact the CO. I have had trespassers before but never had one put up a stand and on top of that in front of your camera thats wild!

    I would take it down and put up a note if he wants his stand back to come see you.

    What a crap shoot lol. I go to the spot i want to set up, climb up in the saddle, didn’t like it so i move about two yards away and the tree i picked has really good cover but it was a pain to get in. I just now got settled in and sweating like no other lol. Hopefully a doe will come out and give me a shot.
