Here's the biggest I've caught so far got a pic of him in velvet in August also:

[B.S. Bait]

Had this guy 50 yards from me in the brush on the 25th. This pic is 15 yards from my stand ! Need to go back and get the cam again to see if he is still coming by. Havent been out there since the 28th.

All that came in to a ribcage in a week's time...

[ozzie]

is that your dog stick? If the time stamp is correct he has been out late standing on point!! HAHA

[mrklean]

i always wanted to do that with the gut piles and stuff put a trail cam on it maybe get a cougar on it

[sticknstring]

I've got a yellow lab at home and he's not allowed on carcasses! We have no idea who this one is. Normally, I'll get some fox and some critters with wings. Pretty disappointed. Hopefully I'll be able to try it out again before the season's over.

I had a bag of stinky fish guts I through in the woods once and put a camera on it. I had coons, cyotes, and I was to surprized to see more deer pics than anything! I think it was something out of the ordinary and really got their curiosity! Fun to try!

Actually deer will eat dead fish and birds and maybe other stuff. They don't hunt for their meat but they are happy to pick up a free meal every now and then.

St Louis County deer. The bucks don't come out to the food plots till after dark.

Is this buck 120 inches? I am guessing not quite...

stick, don't you love it when the neighbors let their dogs run??! NOT!! Yet you'd be the bad guy if something happened to him...

Several times I've had pictures of the neighbors dogs on my trail camera, I printed off pictures and stuck them in their mailbox - the dogs got tied up.

A few years ago I had a rat terrier showing up at my place, didn't know who's dog he was, but he kept showing up. So one day I tied a string of tin cans to his collar. He wouldn't move, so I went into the house, got the shotgun, and shot up in the air several times. He took off across the road - and got caught up in some brush!!! I listened to him bark all afternoon and finally went and cut him loose, but left some rope dragging so the owners would get the idea.

The next time he showed up I just threw him into the back of my truck and took him to the pound. Haven't seen him since.

Moral of the story, keep you dogs tied up or under control or bad things will happen to them!!

Ha! That's funny. Dragging the "tin cans of shame"! It might have been easier to just point the gun in "another" direction....

[Bear55]

totally_addicted he might be close but those tiny browe tines really hurt him.

I'd agree. I'd put him at the 115 mark +/- a few inches. Nice buck regardless of the score.

There's not much worse than having dogs chasing deer on your property but I could never shoot one. Had a filthy one without a collar chase a dandy buck by the stand one year and halfway considered it but never even got the bow up. I've owned dogs my whole life & there's just no way I could do it. It's frustrating though for sure. This one was on a carcass so I can't blame him entirely for straying with those aromas floating through the air. But I agree, keep an eye on your dogs. Some landowners may not be as warm-hearted!

How old do you think he is?

[sticknstring]

Is this a Wright Co. deer? I'd feel pretty confident at putting him at 3 1/2 years old. I spend a fair amount of time in the area and our 2 1/2's typically don't look like that. He's filled out pretty good. Hard to say with one set of pictures and no history.

[totally_addicted]

No this deer is actually a Frazee deer. I go to school in Moorhead so the last few years I have spent most of my deer hunting up in the Detroit Lakes area.

He is going to be close, but probably just shy. He does appear to be big bodied for a rack that small. Rack says 2.5 years old, body says a little older. I'd go by rack size and say hes 2.5.

[slimngrizzly]

2 1/2 year old around 110. Next year will be the big growth year.

[TRice]

Was going through pictures on my phone and came across these from last November.

Must be a monster walking around down there.

2 1/2 year old around 110. Next year will be the big growth year.

That boy has a pretty nice belly on him, I am going to say 3.5.
