Season is over and I did a little scouting the other day. I came across these two rubs. (within shooting distance from my tower on the opposite side of the tree) I got home and told my wife I may have shot the wrong buck. The one I shot was very nice and maybe he made these but I wonder. I try to stay out of the woods before season or maybe I would have seen these earlier. Also I think there are less hunters this year. Last year I know there were 3 guys on the 80 next door but nobody this year. Less hunters every year. Those 3 guys probably would have taken 4 or 5 of the bucks named below out of inventory.
My son gave me a trail cam for Christmas. I sat in the chair to read directions and set it up. Sunday I put the trail cam out with 50 Lb of corn to see if I could determine if there were any surviving bucks after season. 48 hours and 4600 pictures later, yep 4600, I sat at the computer and was enlightened. I thought there would be a few bucks show up. In that 48 hours I find 3 spikes, 4 four points, 3 six points, 1 eight point (pictured), and a 10 point (pictured). I have a lot to look forward to next year. I think the bruiser 10 point may have made the rubs. It seems his horn configuration would make it difficult to rub. There may be another bigger deer out there. Im going to set up my camera for another photo session. See if new horns show up.
Never had a trail cam before but think Im going to like it.
