Default 4 so far

Nothing big yet. Top set was within 5' of each other. I don't think the bottom two are a match.

Beauty!!! Always love it when they are buried in snow with only a couple of points showing. Never know how big it might be.

Default Checked cams again

I checked my cams again today and I still have not got a picture of a shed antlered deer. In fact, I didn't have near as many pictures as I expected on a few of my cams I also had a pack of 5 coyotes hole up in one in one of my areas ( I got pictures of them 4 days in a row) and all the bigger bucks blew out of there including a real cranker. Here's to
Hoping the deer return. I'm still a couple weeks away from being able to put out my coyote baits due to work.

First one of the year for me. Almost missed it. Had my eyes scanning the ground and just happened to look up at the right moment.

Yep I'm guessing last years. I highly doubt someone put it on the tree tho. Not to many people go that far in the bush in the area I'm in.

I have been out three times so far out west to some areas that are just smashed and hornless. I used to have cameras out but ski dooers have since loaded up my cameras. So no photo info to rely

Hope they start dropping soon.

Im surprised they lasted this long to be honest. Have had photos of ski dooers and quaders for last while they never noticed it. Debated taking it down a few times but just wanted to see when bucks started dropping.Bit me in the long run. I have tried it all steel boxes lag bolted in with locks to you name it.

Im heading out west this evening to work by cynthia,going to shed hunt my way in tmrw.

Was out today checking the cameras antlers still intact, some of the bigger bucks may have moved on, or their camera shy!!

yeah we've tried everything as well. I've had guys cut the tree down and take the tree chunk with the cam on it. I can't afford new cams every year so there has to be a better way. I have a couple smaller cams i hide just to watch my main cam in case its stolen.

If it was still on it would be the third rut, and even then it is a bit late. Mid. January would be the third rut.
