I haven't been able to download the cam pics to the computer yet. Got a nice tall 8 pointer shedding velvet that the girlfriend swung and missed at the next night! grin.gifgrin.gif I guess the velvet hanging from the antlers drew away her patience. hahaha anyways, also got a nice pic with a does nose to eye in a 45 degree angle across the pic. you can count every hair. maybe better luck next download attempt. just so ya all know, i can get them to the computer, just not out of their sent folder.

I'd believe it. The local vet saw a BIG cat with a long, blacked tipped tail last winter around my parents. While pheasant hunting in the area, my dad and I noticed some rather large cat tracks in the dusting of snow, larger than my hand.

Cougars are about the only thing I would be scared to encounter in the woods. "experts" say that if you see a cougar, you are being hunted for the sole purpose of being eaten. Otherwise, you will most likely never even know they are there or close by. Predators by night....scary stuff.

Thanks Shackbash! My favorite is the second one with the fawn nursing. We have a lot of pics of that little buck, he must frequent that area quite a bit. Funny, but I have had almost 300 pics this year and nothing but deer and my uncle. Wouldn't you think I would get a coon, fox or something?

Codydawg,

I just got a full second look at those deer! You have some monters were you are at! You have at least one good mountable deer and some other future nice deer! Nice shots.

Some of the best I have seen. Multiple buck shots!

Thanks for letting me post them!

The only time I hunted Ripley, I had a doe that looked just like that 5 yards from me... I didn't shoot her. I described what I saw to the DNR at the checkpoint and I believe that is what they called it too. They said it would've been safe to eat if I had shot it... I said "I bet bullhead whiskers are safe to eat too, but ain't no way there gonna make their way onto my plate". They got a chuckle out of that. It looks NASTY!!!

Good Luck!

Yep, same info I found. Safe to eat... My BLB butt!!!!

My question would be, is she suffering in anyway long term, and if you shot it, would you get a "kitchen pass" from the DNR so you wouldnt have to burn a tag on it? Not that anyone here would know, but thats what comes to mind.

Pathetic. Ooof. Poor thing.
