Kind of cool, looking back through last fall's archived trail cam shots. Back in November, I got a text from a hunting buddy saying a landowner saw a buck standing in the middle of the road in the sunlight, around 10 am. Obviously, in love. Luckily, I had a trail cam on a zip-tied overhanging branch not far away. So I drove there, pulled the card, and sent a photo of the buck to the landowner. He ID'ed it and said it was the buck...5 point, no brow tines, tips of tines broken from fighting already. That buck hit that scrape no more than 10 minutes after it crossed the road. I never got a photo of the buck before or since. To me it shows as the rut progresses, bucks get the urge to move more and more in the daylight and ...late morning is potentially as good as early morning on the stand when they are on their feet. 11.1.16 Buck at zip-tie Rich saw cross road .mov

Hello everyone! This past weekend, I was in the woods doing a little walking around with another hunting buddy, and stumbled upon a Massive Rub. (take a look at the pic). During the early and mid bow season, i snapped about 300 pictures of various 4 pters, 6 ptrs, and 2 really impressive 8 ptrs. (see second pic). So far this gun season, we have taken 3 small bucks (2 spikes, and 1 4 ptr) off the property. (new hunters wanted their first deer, i know i know let em grow....) The other big deer are NO WHERE to be seen. MY guess is that this rub that i found is from the big boy, and he is pushing everything else off the property. The rub is located in a Hard-to-get-to spot deep in the woods overlooking a tight funnel, with a stream about 200 yards away. My question is: How do I go about finding this guy? what are some of your tactics in getting him to show up? I've been in the woods every weekend for the past 8 weeks, and havent confirmed seeing him except on the camera in August. The third pic is right in front of where the rub is. Just passed the first row of trees, is a stream that runs through the border of my property. HELP PLEASE!

Two bucks came into the same zip-tied licking branch this morning, one early in the am and one later in the morning. But what a size difference! No wonder the little guys run like he!!. I cut and pasted the photo to really show the difference in body size as it was taken by the same camera, at the same zip-tied licking branch.

Nice 10 pt. (like the stickers) early this am at the zip-tied overhanging branch...he was one of five bucks (spikes and forks) that hit it this am. Sorry for the poor quality, but there was a dense fog this am here. Later it cleared and a small eight pt. came in.

I was down in a swampy area in the woods behind where I live. I saw one deer track and then a little further up found and log just tore up. Would a buck tear up a log? The wood was shredded up and down the log with large strips on the ground. It looked pretty fresh too. It was not a ripping up that I would expect from a bear but more of a side to side shredding.
