    Got a few nice bucks on my family farm but having TONS of trail camera issues this year. Two month old Covert Black 60 that won't take a picture. Awesome to find that out after driving 1 1/2 hrs to check cams.

    Did you bring the camera out of the woods or is it still out there?

    I have it here in my garage. My number is 2627162044 if you want to text or call. It still takes pictures while in setup mode if you push the button to take them manually. Just seems like the sensor doesn't work.

    Overall had a good opening weekend. Hunted 4 evenings @ 3 different spots & saw some deer. Back to work for 4 days then @ it again.

    Good luck when you get back out there Matt.

    I know it doesn't count for this contest but I can tell you I was pretty pumped to get this pic sent to me. This is where I am hunting Iowa's second shotgun season.

    Man , looks like some of you have some monsters that you get to choose from.
    I'm just hoping I can get my bow tuning issue done before season.

    Just curious how the rest of the guys spend their hunts. Do you guys film your hunts, hunt over plots you put in, hunt public, split time with chasing waterfowl?

    I hunt wooded draws, just along trails and man made ATV trails. Ill shoot some texts, take a few pictures of wildlife every now and then, but thats about it. In the fall, its either school or bowhunting :tu:

    I usually hunt transition areas and long drains. I am not afraid to jump in a cluster of trees in a field either. Seems the deer like to gather in them. I also love them oak flats early season!

    Good luck to everyone hunting this weekend. I am headed out to see if I can get TJ and my kids on a bear tomorrow.
