Great Buck! Congratulations! We open up Saturday morning here for rifle. I plan on hunting a lot next week and weekend. I have to run the video camera Saturday thru Tuesday.

That is a nice buck, but I think he is more in the upper teens to 125 range. I think his narrow spread keeps him from being a solid 120 class. Regardless or score... he is a great buck to shoot!!

I have always used moultrie cams since the 35mm cams and i have a handful of the last two years digital models, but I think the 08 digital has noticeably less quality? I am not sure if it is a lesser camera or what. The only real difference is that this years model takes D batteries and the others take 6 Volts. I have a few friends that have noticed the same thing. I bought a Bushnell cam yesterday and am going to get it out in the woods this week to try something else. I have always liked moultrie and used them for game cams and feeders because they are so good about sending things back and fixing them, etc.. Does anyone have any suggestions besides buying a expensive cuddeback? Is there some new setting that I am not doing correctly? Thanks!

Hi, I have heard from people and the Game and Fish about wrapping chicken wire around troughs to catch the sheds. Supposedly the horns get caught and when the buck pulls his head out, the horn will just stay in the wire if it is loose??? I dont know exactly how or when to start. I built some troughs and plan on building a couple more and feeding the deer out of them and try the wire thing whenit is time. Does anyone have any suggestions at all for me? Thanks!

Congrats! That is a great deer!

I have used MOultrie cams since the big black 35 mm game cam II's. I now have several digitals. I love them and moultrie has always been great about fixing game cams and feeders for me. I really like the price for what you get with the moultrei cams. There are a few things that I have learned that help get better pics and now I get hundreds of good pics every week when the cams are out in the field.

I have several of the moultries. I have a couple of last years models with the 6 volt and a couple of the new ones that take D batteries. I dont think the quality is a good as the cuddebacks or other high dollar cams, but for the price I woul drather have two or three moultries out there instead of one high dollar cam. I really like mine. I have hundreds of pics and I can see tines etc... just fine. The only time I am not satisfied with pics is when the sun is shinning right on the cam and it looks whiteish or at really low light when the flash doesnt go off. I think you will be happy with it. Moultrie is also very good about their warranty work. Good luck getting some great pics!

Deer for yall to look at Hey team, I posted a thread in the deer huntin forum with a buck that I have been watching for a few years. A good friend and I are going out Saturday when Muzzleloading opens and hunting the feeder from the pic to try to kill this deer on video. I was wondering what yall thought he might score and how old he is. Thanks, and good hunting this week!

We have gotten pics and videoed this deer several times over the past 3 years and I think he was 2 1/2 when we first started seeing him. I think he is 5 1/2 - 6 1/2 and will get in the 140's this year. He was almost yhis big last year but he didnt have much of brow tines and was too young. I have videoed this deer over 10 times on flood plots and electric feeders.

Congrats!

I think he will definitetly net in the 130's but I would guess 2.5 because of his body. A deer that size on our farm would be 2.5, but that is not true everywhere. I would look for more mass in the antlers and body if it were 3.5, but I coul dbe wrong? He is a great buck no matter how old he is. Good luck hunting him!

Sounds like a winner! Is anyone on the team hunting this weekend? It is too hot here and the deer are very nocturnal except for the first 30 min and the last 30 min. We are going to rest the woods until Muzzleloader starts next weekend. Good luck yo everyone that is hunting!

I like them both!

I like the name White "Tales". Sounds great.

Hi everyone. Glad we got I got on a team and hopefully we can give everyone a run for the title! We opened here in Arkansas on Monday and I videoed my brother and a friend hunt MOnday and Tuesday. They both got does on the evening hunts and got one really good bow kill on video. I will try to get my does and bucks later in the season after I video a few more kills. I will make sure and hold up my end of the points for you guys. Great luck and good hunting!!!

I have a couple different plots of different sizes and and have been planting them differently for the last 3 or 4 years and I am not sure which seed draws the most deer. I usually plant wheat, oats, full draw, green patch plus, and No- Plow. All of them usually grow in tall and green and when we get a frost, they all get eaten down and stay eaten down til spring. If I had to guess I would say that the bio logic does the worst with my prep work. I might see a little more various wildlife (bobcats, coyotes, rabbits, etc.) on the no plow. What is everyone else planting? What are some suggestions for some things to try? Most of my plots are 1/4 to 1/2 acre and one is a 300 yard lane about two cars wide through a crp like field.

I use lots of Buckjam in various flavors and Stump licker. I pour them on salt blocks, stumps, and my ground licks. I think that the deer will eat whatever you pour them on and they really work well at first. I have a stump or ground mineral lick site on every stand and so I just mix it all up. I have not used acorn rage yet, but I plan on putting it in my troughs and electric feeders in about a week when I bait everything up for the first of bow season.

We had several flocks fly around for the first 30 min and then it was over. Ended up turning into a teal/dove hunt. I am going to try them again in a few days. Central Arkansas on the Arkansas River.

I hope his twisted #@! forgot to put on his "non-fitting" gloves this time and he gets what he has coming!

We have several fields with a dozen or so on them, but no certain field that looks better than the others. We open tommarrow and I still do not know what to do?? I am going down to watch the fields this evening and make a decision. Good luck killing them and send a few my way!

We have a few marsh like fields that flood out from cypress resevoirs all year long and there is lots of vegitation in them. They all seem to have a dozen or more teal on them at any given time. What are some ways to pinpoint certain fields or tactics to kill more teal as opposed to just setting up in my normal duck blinds?????? Thanks!

Great Hunt! That is truley a giant of a lifetime!
