all of my 3.5+ deer are showing between 11pm and 3am at night which figures. Anyone else have the same results on trail cameras?
ill post a few of the small ones;) But the flash is not bothering any of the deer now. I have about 20 pics of each buck day after day hitting the scrape and getting their photos taken.
#1 on my hitlist aka(sleepless nights) is visiting around 3am every night. He will be my biggest to date if I can get in front of him.
anyhow, here are some of the smaller ones.
this guy is sleepless nights grandson btw;) Only a 2.5 year old buck!

Good pics!
They are starting the branch licking and sparring here now.
I watched 3 small racked bucks eat, spar, visit an old scrape site and check it out this evening.
Then the best one (small 8 point) got too close to me, and I'm done buck hunting for this year.

I like those pictures!
They will move during the cool days ahead. Good luck!
I'd rather wear out than rust out.

Good buck. I am using a Cuddeback this year and am very impressed with the trigger sensitivity/range and photo quality.
I hunt for memories, the meat's a bonus!

he's nice but he's been a 7pt for the past 2 years. Depending on my year he may or maynot walk if he comes by.
Rich, the heat put a stop to them the past few days. I didnt even go today which is rare since its 88 here
ecoaster, the one reason I use them is because of the images above. I like detail and lots of it. Extremely quick trigger and something is always in the picture. I will say the trigger isnt great when temps are above 80 degrees. Thats the only downfall I can find now.

Great bucks, great shots, good luck on the harvest.
If i'm not hunting i'm fishing, and if i'm not fishing i'm wishing.
