Upstates Good Cam Pulls for 2018

[UpStateRedNeck]

Thought I'd throw a few up, haven't done any trail cam pictures in a while.  This year I tried to lay off camera'ing over hunting, and spooking my spots, which is something I feel like I did last year.

Before I do a bunch though, WTF is up with this buck?  His rack looks weird right?  And doesn't he look small for that much hardware??  This is at my waterfall stand halfway down the side of the hill, either 600 foot hike down from the top, or a 500 foot hike up from the bottom.

A few more good ones I got of daylight bucks, which I'm going to keep track of to optimize my hunting days.  Shocker, all between November 1 and 17.....  Then again I pulled most of my cameras first weekend of gun.

November 7 8:00 am is the dude I single lunged 2 days later, like an idiot.

Still have cameras out but this 7 is loving our little plot next to our yard

First post, is there something weird with his rack or is that just the angle?  Also he looks pretty young?  Maybe 2.5?  Or am I imagining things?

the tree in the way isn't ideal if you're talking about your first picture posted. i've seen very small framed deer look that way that were 2.5 yrs old.  i'm thinking it's 3.5 though based on it doesn't look long and slim. legs appear right size for it's body. chest looks to be getting deeper compared to the waist line. ears aren't bigger like you'd see on a younger deer. neck and chest hard to judge because its head is down. 3.5 yr olds out here are typical over 110" but the buck could be a later bloomer or just smaller racked deer. we've seen that before.
