Backyard Fight

[Schu72]

I have had this target up since early summer. I woke up this morining and look out into the backyard to see it destroyed! I have to assume this was a deer attack. Anyone else ever have this happen?

Oh, he left without eating the corn that was about 10 yards away.:smiley_baby:

Had that happen to mine the middle of November this season.

That's pretty crazy! It wouldn't surprise me though.

Maybe stick a trail camera out there and see if he comes back tonight for a second round.

I had a decoy atacked in late Oct several years back

While I sat in the tree stand trying for a shot


But this time of the year is strange

Wonder if yotes or kids could be involved ?

Might have been fighting for the corn. I've had several pics of that going on now.

Anti hunter doesn't want you practicing.

I've got a series of 20+ photos of two big bucks going at it the day after Christmas. Not just sparring either, they were rolling each other. If there are still does coming in in your area, then the bucks will still be stand-offish.

Should be getting close to the 2nd rut. Might be a feller in the area looking to dominate his zone .

Did a little more investigation....There are marks on the ground where the deer was stomping and pawing the ground. I'm sure it was a deer.

Poor thing...

I watched 26 deer come out of a state park last Thursday into a field. 2 bucks were fighting and pushing each other around the whole time. Another couple bucks were running over to check it out and they ended up getting in a fight... So yeah.. They're still going at it.

Same thing happened to my uncles deer target in his back yard last fall......the thing was broken into several pieces and there were large tracks all around it! He even lives on the edge of town.

 

[Schu72]

Just had a small 6 in the backyard. I wonder if he was one who attacked my target?

I thought this thread was going to be about treemonkey and his wife.lol

I've had it happen to my target twice. Each time you could see antler gouge marks in the side and back end. Just like a decoy. Last time it was pretty severely damaged.
