Nice buck (everyone post your LIVE buck pics here)

[Steve Foss]

I just upgraded to pro. Seemed like the right thing to do for $25/year.

[Todd Caswell]

Yes, this is what you get when the city meets the woods.

looks like he needs a good brushing with the furminator

[frogtosser]

am i the only one who thinks that deer has cataracts?

[Steve Foss]

If you're talking about Scruffy Butt, I wonder if a flash might have been used, and that's reflection. Just a guess.

Very nice photo's. I love the fawn and the velvet bucks.

[Steve Foss]

As an update, both the backyard bucks pictured early in this thread just visited the mineral/salt/apple block and the corn feeders in the back yard. Too dark for photos, but both racks were intact. I'm hoping they get into the habit of at least coming for the apple block during next year's antler growing season. Food around the edges of town is plentiful and good, so I figured I'd add a few antler-building minerals to the mix, too.

[harvey lee]

Keep feeding them Steve and you could have a trophy for this fall.

[Steve Foss]

My trophy has a lot more to do with the Canon than the cannon.

[harvey lee]

Either way it is a trophy.

Got a few shots of some sparring Bucks today. It looked like they were either just playing around or trying to knock their antlers off.

Cool pics Brooky!

Cool pics Brooky!

Agreed. I've never witnessed bucks sparring. One looks a bit lopsided.

[Steve Foss]

Nice bucks! Really nice spread on those racks.

[DonBo]

Brooky, those are all great shots. Did that one shed his antler right there during that match? Pretty cool if he did. Never heard of anyone actually seeing one lose an antler.

[Jim43]

Caught these 2 a couple years back on the hill out back.

All captured out the window I sit here typing at.

[SkitterPopper]

Cool thread Steve! I am not a professional like some of the guys here, but here arew a few that I shot last winter. It reminds me I have to get out again soon.

[SkitterPopper]

I also have a question for you guys out there. Have you ever seen anything like the two pictures below. This doe walked up to the buck and stood there and massaged her head on his horns. I watched them do this for about 5 minutes. He just stood there and held his horns still and she rubbed away. Kind of strange but very cool.

All nice!

I gotto watch a buck drop oneof his horns a few weeks ago,

was on way into where I was huntingand saw nice buck bedded off road, (the one I was hunting) got him o video and noticed he had dropped on side. AsI was watching him noticed the shed laying next to him, so I ge out walk towards him and he finally gets up as I get close two bouns and the other side pops off!

I had a dandy buck in velvet standing in the ditch today begging for his photograph to be taken. Pulled out the camera and got the 'please replace batteries' message.
