    Yea, it is a toss up between him and "Tiney" on which is better. I'll be happy with either though.

    If they stick around, and I get one early season, and no one on the property to the north gets one during shotgun season, I'll try for the other late season.

    That'd be something else! Talk about a hell of a season. Good luck, I'm thinking you get at least one! :tu:

    They are both showing up either at first light, or last light, so I have a chance. I'm taking a digi cam with me opening day and gonna do a quick pull to see which stand I want to sit. Going out a couple hours early just for that purpose, just hope I dont bump one out.

    2 weeks, i will be doing stand posts from my phone, my mom has a wifi card so I take it with me so I can take pics and make posts. I know some people frown upon that, saying they hunt to get away from everything. My job doesnt allow me to leave my phone off or at home, so may as well use it. Plus I use it to keep my hunting journal.

    Great bucks Wesley, I'd be out of my skin if I had them on trail cam. Good luck!

    I have watched "Splitter" grow from before having the splits and nothing for tines, to what he is now. So I never had a really holy shi*t moment from him. "Tiney" on the other hand just showed up out of no where pretty much full grown. This is the first pic I got of him. field (134).jpg

    When you are flipping through pics and have to stop and back track to that, that is a holy sh*t moment.

    Wesley which covert cams are you running? Your pics are great! I've been dragging my feet on upgrading from the moultrie m-80's since they're still working and were a little pricey to start with, but I have a feeling there's some coverts in my future.

    I'm using 2012 red 40s. They don't do the hd video like the 2013s do, but they take really good pics. Gonna be getting a couple new ones so I can do hd video with them.

    Don't forget the 2 different pics with bow, also date and time. Good job and way to fill the freezer and put more points on the board for us.

    Great job on the doe harvests guys! Congratulations!

    My doe quest starts Friday afternoon and I'm soooo ready to get in a tree. I've got 10 days off, and will be trying to get a buddy flying in from NH his first bow kill. He's gonna fill a couple doe tags and then I'm up to bat. I'm getting really excited to check trail cams too. I've been away nearly 10 days so I'm hoping for drained batteries, full SD cards, and a Kansas 150" + to be showing up in daylight.

    Good luck everyone who's up a tree tomorrow!

    NJ bow hunters knocking them down, way to go bushnlo. I passed on a doe with two fawns, though I shot 11 min of video. Back out tomorrow AM.
