Trail cam pics - 12/2 thru 12/15 - Bucket Stand

Based on the recent trail camera pictures from my Bushnell Trophy Cam (see here), the deer have gone nocturnal due to the pressure of gun season. Now that the gun season is over, I put out some bait in the hopes of drawing them back in during daylight hours. Below are a few of the pictures from the trail camera. (Note: Unfortunately, the memory card filled up on 12/15 and didn't capture anything the last 8 days. It appears that the camera triggers more easily when there is snow on the ground. I will need to turn the sensitivity down.)

Trail cam pics - 11/24 thru 12/2 - Bucket Stand

Last week, I moved the trail camera to another one of our stands (nicknamed the bucket stand). Below, I've posted some of the pictures, including some showing a couple 8 point bucks. One of them has a tall narrow rack and is missing a back hoof. I saw him earlier this year (rattled him in) at at the carpet stand. The other has a typical rack. Most of the deer activity over the last week at the bucket stand is at night, with some at sunrise, noon and sunset.
