Have you saw any of the good bucks you've captured on your trail cams this year while hunting? And/or have you saw some good bucks while hunting that you never got on your trail cams?
My youth hunter did and he hit him, but did not recover. Have not seen him since on camera. THe buck I shot, I have on camera also.
Got one picture of the buck I hit the first week on the same day I shot him (he's still alive and kicking...saw him again on Saturday). Saw the tall 8 I had on cam all summer two Saturday's ago. I have a scrub 4 that was showing up on the cam a lot this summer that I saw a few times during the season, and finally, I had a NICE piebald 8 I saw about two weeks ago that I didn't have any cam pictures of. Plus a few other 4 and 6s I didn't have pictures of.
I saw 2 of them for the first time this season Saturday evening. My big 11 pointer got as close as 80 yards and the big nontypical was at 40 yards after shooting light. I could just make out his rack in my binocs. Saw lots of the little guys this weekend.
I believe I saw one of the bucks I got on trail camera. It happened so fast I am not 100% sure it was him but I'm pretty sure it was. I ended up wounding him and I feel pretty confident that he is still alive.
Yep Saw these two guys the second day of the season, haven't seen them since. I've also seen a smaller buck I don't have on camera
Saw a 140 class Friday that I have no pics of this year. I've also had 2 close encounters with a decent buck I call Windy, and have passed on a 2 year old 8 pt. that I lots of pics of.
Went out last night and when I got to my truck and unloaded. I got in to drive away and as I backed out of the logging road my lights shined the field. There in my lights was a nice 8 pointer with this fella with about 20 other deer! I am on vacation now for 5 weeks so this fella better pay me a visit!
I passed this 3 yr old Saturday afternoon at 8 yrds just before I cut my bow string.. and I'd do it again too. Another year and I think he'll be a good one. I'm trying to take the next step in my own hunting prowess. "Mack the Knife"
Well if my trailcams are correct i might as well go hunt somewhere else this year,Hoping for a floater buck to pick my spirits up during this rut.
I have seen two 3.5 year old bucks and one 4.5 yr old from the stand which I have pictures of. I have pictures of every buck I have seen up to this point.
I have seen a bunch of the smaller bucks I have pictures of so far. I haven't seen any of the big boys I had gotten on camera yet. I actually saw a buck that was bigger than anything I had on the cameras this year. Blessings......Pastorjim
Thanks a bunch for the replys! Good Info. On my trail cams I've gotten pictures of 5 different mature bucks. Of these 5 bucks I've saw 3 of them.
