    The only recent pictures I have gotten of one of my target bucks. He's my public land boy, so the odds are against me.

    Mark looks like your gonna have a exciting season
    Boof those are some sweet non buck pics, where lucky to see one pheasant a year around here. Are numbers have been way down for numerous years now. Im sure you will have some new bucks start showing up and find some of your other ones in differnt areas since they are starting to break out of there summer pattern

    Just got the best news....

    My freak buck is back. This is a deer I had on camera destroying some of my scrapes last year. He didn't show up until mid-November and would appear sporadically through January. He just appeared a couple days ago and it was just after sundown. He hasn't really grown, if anything he has gotten smaller.

    Here he is from 2012.

    Some more good news. I got this deer on camera once all summer and it was back in July. I knew then he would be a good deer. He showed up again a couple days ago right at sunrise! I am excited to see more pictures of this guy.

    I like the second one Boof,all though the Freak buck has a great body. Probably an older deer, but I like the looks of the second one better, Just my 2 cents and good luck arrowing either one,that would be a feat!

    Dang
    Using a lot of time up getting ready for the winter up here. Darn heat isin't helping either,was wanting to sit tomorrow night and check another cam I have out on the chicken farm. The wife lady keeps asking for more ,she gave me a list while she's galavanting in the mountains this weekend with her cousins & sis. She deserves it I guess, but us, as men, deserve the good too huh! LMAO ,hope she doesn't read this. Watching the grand son and daughter tonight,or else I'd be out in the am. Man changing jobs is good ,but brutal in other ways,I gave up 7 weeks holidays which I used 3 for hunting. Now I only get 2 weeks and none are slated for hunting. I need to make the best of all the free time I get ,so that I can hopefully lay one down that is respectable., Good luck to any that are hunting this weekend and be safe.

    Boof that buck is sweet

    Just for my last stand hung (sitting in as I'm typing this) on a property I grew up hunting. Not to many big bucks here but I got it right on a edge of a 100 acre swamp thicket and I open maple woods. I haven't hunted this property in a few years but pretty excited with the new stand placement, have 6 good trails in bow range with a couple openings into the thicket. Gonna be a little rough until the leaves fall but after that should be able to see pretty good. Last year the neighbor got a 130 class 8pt on camera and as far as I know he's still alive. Heading out to the lease tomorrow for one last camera pull until season starts. I will give you guys a update Monday morning probably

    Good luck coheley!

    I am heading out here to hang a couple cameras and maybe check one of them. My archery season is still two weeks away! Duck opener is the same weekend, so I will have a tough choice.

    Hey Guys
    I made it, on stand as I write this, winds out of the sw@7 sitting on a field edge waiting for a nanny or a calf moose would be good.Wish me luck, God only knows there's some luck involved.

    Deer- 3 me -0. This stand on the TC shows morning movement which surpises the heck out of me , I moved my stand here because of movement this far to the corner was happening at night time, DAHHHH! What's up with the deer changing patterns. Nothing of value to show on my TC pull this week so I'll hold of till next weekend I guess. Cooling of up here this week, getting down to the single digits,so hopefully it'll put a hurt on the misquitoes. Also get some deer on their feet.
