More PA Bucks

Yea looks like the natural deer route is coming towards the cam and feeding and then up the steep hill where I will be sitting. So basically these deer are coming from my left to right and then up the hill to my right. The landowner said the come to/from the farm/corn fields nearby at first light and just before dark.

Hastings is like 10-15min from me. Interesting stuff. Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2

Damn, that sux. I bought for the burst option. Not sure why the daytime pics look like night, but I guess as long as it takes pics I'm happy. Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2

Also, why do most day time pics come out black n white with this cam? This is my first time using this cam. Usually I use wildgame cams. I bought this cam for the shot burst, which works great showing me which the deer are moving. Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2

The one buck appears to have a mark on his body right behind the shoulder?

Today I checked my Connecticut trail cam for the first time ever. This is my first year hunting this private property, about 7 acres. I will be hunting from the ground with the crossbow. The cam is about 20-25 yards from where I plan to sit on rocky ledge. I figured I would either have like 0 pics or a bunch. I put the cam where I thought the deer would travel after walking the land for only about 30 minutes on July 13th. think I did pretty good, I got 135 pics on 3-shot burst, so really about 45 pics. Surprisingly, more bucks than does, and also a black dog lol. No huge bucks, but one of them looks like it will be a 5 or 6 pointer. Hopefully in 3-4 weeks, I will catch a bigger buck on camera. I did have some pics late at night with 3-4 deer in the pic where I couldn't tell what they were, just that they are deer.

How much? What % color phase? What % success rates? Thanks. Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2

I didn't send him an actual letter, just an email. Short version is that I told him I was upset that in CT, PA, and NJ I can hunt with my xbow, but not in my home state of NY. I didn't expect to hear back, but then got a letter a few days later in the mail. Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2

Belo, save your $. Don't buy that rifle, instead use that $ towards a crossbow. Next year you will be able to use it. A good crossbow will outshoot that Savage at 200 yards any day of the week! Haha, sorry. Had to say it.

I don't know anything about Savage, but any gun and scope for less than $600 is a steal. Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2

From what I read once, the lekoskys live in an old barn that was renovated and the majority of the land they hunt, they don't even own. They will be irrelevant in 5 years. Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2

Pretty cool. 11 racoons and 1 doe when I tuned in. Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2

Yea man. My friend live trapped this bobcat in Binghamton a few months ago in a Havahart trap. It was suprisingly calm while my friend released it, but then the bobcat ate him. R.I.P.

I was just joking around. Previously I said 2.5 - 3.5 and about 110

In Putnam County (3N), he is 6.5 years old.

Nice sasquatch mount. Say hello to Borat for me! Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2

Yup, wish they would venture into putnam and my shotgun. Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2

I'm no expert, but I think he's over 100, maybe 110. Age-wise either 2.5 or 3.5

A velvet buck in October? Did you preserve the velvet?

Also depends in the cost of hunt. I give 20% on a $320 fishing trip, but not 20% on a $5K hunt. Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2

I know nothing about planting food plots, but are there seeds that deer would eat? So your planting but baiting at the same time? Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2

Depends on the hunt and what's included (lodging, food, etc.). Anywhere between 5-15% Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2

What if you plant a 100sq ft food plot the night before opening day? Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2
