Hey, TX! Yeah, he really started to pack on the mass with some new stickers this year, but starting to show his age too. Hope he continues
to stay healthy and sticks around this time, or this year. We'll see...Thanks again, and you've got some 'Beasts' too! Keep it up

I'm going out tomorrow and hang some cameras at four wicking ropes I've had hanging a few years. The local does and Young bucks use them a lot with mature bucks coming to them once a month it seems this time of year. Activity will pick up to once a week or more starting in September.
Latest of 'Junior' this morning with the most recent group (attached gif) that showed up moments ago. The apples I laid out yesterday late afternoon didn't even make it til-midnight

Hoping he sticks around, like too see what he looks like up close and personal!
It's been a week since I shared him last on here, Here's the last two daylight pix from the main feedsite tonight, 'THUNDER', of course, and "NINER' too, who really became a 10 point last year, so I think I'm gonna have to give him a different name. He's been with us for the last (3) three years in a row. Can't really say how old he is, but no doubt he's a mature deer. Attached gif file of the group that was with them also.

Can we call him "Levi's"?
You betcha we can! Whatever he cares to call him, especially after he shoots him dead.

Here you go. Have him chew on some of these from a little bit ago and see if any of them get his goat? He needs a new name this year for sure, no longer a nine, which the other antlers are still on their way in due time. Attached the gif that goes with these as well.
Now these are going to have to last him for a while until we get together. Until then, let his imagination go wild.
Have a good one, Dave!

Hit the back roads and saw a dandy 8 about 1.5 miles as the crow flies from the house. I was able to stop behind some brush and watch him from the road for almost 5 minutes. Solid mid-30s frame by the time he's done and just a beautiful example of a big old mature 8-point.

I haven't been on here much but finally got a few cams up Sunday when we got back from vacation. And it didn't take long to find a cpuple familiar faces. I did turn a couple cell cams on I didn't plan on it. But it will save me some time having to go check them since they are the farthest from the house.

Took a backroad ride myself tonight. And now I won’t sleep haha
About the best I can come up with from the main feedsite today in daylight.
'Junior' with a couple of the others. Attached gif file showing his time spent there so far for today.
Did not check other cams because I was on the mower all day so, I'll take it considering all the comotion I created while they fed,
