Oh right on right on, thinkin I'm seein the reason for not allowing baited hunts in MN because a muzzy or bow hunter it would be heaven. 9:40 AM and that big guy has no fear of the daylight although he seems concerned lol. Cool pictures. Do you then feed through the winter/spring or do you stop when muzzy and bow are done ?

LOL... if that was MN those deer wouldn't be there at 9:40 in the daylight!

Was happy to see "tumor buck" made it, (on his belly) saw him Saturday of opener but no shot, also broke a few tines since. He should be a stud next year. The small one with what looks like 2 main beams. Here are a few other ones that should be dandies next near...

muskieman, can I ask which wildgame innovations cam you have? Earlier this year i bought the 2 mp for 50 bucks, i didnt expect much, but it wasnt worth 50, night pics i could only see eyes but the pics were black. So i returned it for the 4mp for 80 bucks. we turned the lights off in the house and walked by it a few times at 20 feet, could barely see us in the pics they were so dark, so i also returned that one. yours takes great pics, what model do you have? thanks

If you can swing it spend the $ on the bushnell trophy cams... we run 9 of them and never had a problem with one of them, one was submereged for one week after all that June rain and worked like a champ!

Buddy works at Gander and Wildgame is the most returned camera... FYI

I got them last year for a reasonable price, can't remember exact but under 80 bucks. I looked at properties on picture and it said Wildgame model-W3X, f/2.4, 1/30 sec. I will check next weekend as I don't remember off hand. We run 3 of them and they always turn out good and no issues with them.

A few more from last week, a couple of thee are new bucks that showed up in the last week. Think they are coming in from a ways away as the deer yard up in this area.

[sticknstring]

So that's where all the bucks in my area head to! That would be fun having a late-season spot like that. The deer in my area are like migratory birds, they all pack their bags early December and head for greener pastures.

The "Big Guy" finally made a daytime appearance.

The camera date & time are off.

This was from about 9:00 this morning,

I went to this stand this afternoon and bumped him out of his bed.

I guess that is how they get big.

[umichjesse]

That's a beauty hugonian. I love the white tips on the antlers. Great pic.

[mrklean]

Good lookin buck there

[birdswacker]

Very nice buck!

I've got a tag yet need help!

[muskie dave]

[strait-meat]

nice bucks---velvet on the buck then the same buck without it a few days later--pretty neat!

[certified jumbo]

Thats a dandy. Any encounters with him during the season?? Hope you find his sheds.

[muskie dave]

Didnt see any shooters during the season, and all the pics were at night except a few just days after it closed.

[bigbucks]

Nice bucks guys!

First time I looked at this thread. All I can say is wow, great photos here! Thanks to all for posting.

[laker1]

Awesome pictures,with great clarity. Many times checking your camera is as fun as hunting.

Its a small item of not much importance but I have two Moultres which I like,but the temperature reads about 10 degrees to low on both of them. How does yours read?
