    We pulled cards today from the Nelson Creek property. Looked at hundreds of stills and hours of video. Would you believe we hit it on the VERY LAST video in the cam?

    Was from early this morning. Almost didn't get one. I did get to video those two fawns in person last week, but we really wanted one on a trail cam. Our spring is complete!

    Nice Brian! Guess we can backtrace the rut to peak around the 11th or 12th, figuring that fawn is 2-4 days old?

    The fawn may be a day old. I didn't get to see which doe popped as I only got her rump.

    Great vid capture for sure. Tom said it though with the thread title of "Holy Grail" I was thinking something a little more rare was gonna play. :)

    Trust me, when you go thru hundreds of pics and videos, finding that on the very last video on the last cam checked, you feel like you found something special!!
