Here's some of mine from 2010: What we try so hard to fool, I laugh every time I see this photo: Genetic aberration, not a result of injury: Wish I could do this with my hind leg:
Have a good day man. In honor of personal freedom and the open squirrel season, I think I'll go put a hole through dinner's head.

This one is from my back yard. There are spikes back there every year eating my fruit but we rarely see a bigger buck. I put the cameras out to see if something bigger came at night. So far, no. This ones cool though.

C'mon man, I posted a humble few of mine. How about some of your own?

Understand. I was poking at the guy posting other's photos.
I held out until a few years ago on the camera deal and then popped for what was a last-year's closeout model that runs off D batteries and has an IR flash. I have an absolute riot with the camera. It is real fun during rut - like the pic of the deformed antlered deer above is one of a sequence where he runs off a smaller guy - for all of about 30 seconds. My "yard" has an L shaped planting of pines that is about 125 yards long on each leg that becomes a huge scrape line with about every tree seeing some activity.
I see deer now that I never knew were around. Unfortunately that is not necessarily a good thing here - there are some horrible spikes around that just escape notice because of how skinny their antlers are. I knew they were here, just not how many.
I have a pic from last year of a "unicorn" buck - he has a regular set of small antlers and about a 6-8" spike right in the middle of his forehead. I'll have to dig that one up this weekend.

Ain't the price... never has been..I'd spend 1000 on one if I wanted one... I"m afraid I'll see what I think I know is around, adn then waste the rest of my life looking for a deer thats probably nocturnal and or comes through once or twice a year..... odds are not good. I have things to do in life, I can't afford a wild deer chase too... grins....

Have them but this is very true, going to run mine before the season and then try to hang them up. Wasted way too much time chasing a fantasy deer the past few seasons

They can be golden. We've taken many good bucks with the use of them. That said, they do cause you to chase ghost once in a while. I chased a 5.5yo 8pt last season I had multiple pics of. You'd have thought he was a ghost until I finally had him at 32yds, but too much brush to get an arrow through. It's nice knowing they are there to me. I get dulled out after seeing no deer for many sits, but having pics of them makes me give it a bit more effort. This little guy was on a small piece of property my family has hunted since deer were introduced to the area many decades ago. Despite all those years of hunting the area has only produced a couple deer over 120 for us. Even though I hunt much better areas for bigger deer, I keep going back to where I tagged along with Papaw and Daddy when I was a little buck. It would mean more to me to put a tag on this guy than a 180 anywhere else in the country: Ya'll have a good one, loder

Don't have a deer cam, but the wife gets good pictures. I titled this one as "I can't see." She is asking for a trial cam now, as she'd like to know what comes through behind our house at night. That's a pretty cheap way for me to get through next Christmas.
