Went down to camp to fill the feeders and cut a couple of saplings. Pulled the cards and see that the bucks are all shed. These young bucks seem to have moved into the area. They need a couple of years but look like they have potential. Also got a good picture of a very little fawn. He better hope it is a mild winter. Can't wait for October to get here and hopefully that brings some bigger buck into the area. Haven't got any pics of any shooters yet.

I've got a few of those spotted little fellas walkin around as well... Most the spots are barely noticeable...
Nothing I am aware of. It isn't just the last couple weeks either. I'm talking all summer. This is a 150acre parcel. Outside of the farmers (which they see every year), I am seeing no new intrusions. I have another property down the road with roughly 15-20 acres of woods and another 50-75 tillable acres. Parcel south of it allows no hunting with another 20 acres of woods and estimated 40-60 acres tillable land. They are in beans this year too. I always see deer in these beans. I have seen them once or twice all summer. Starting to think I really need to get a camera over there for inventory. I never worried about it because it has only produced does and small bucks annually until roughly mid to late October. Guess I need to put an inventory camera out there to see where they are or if they are in there.
Twireman, that is TOO GOOD the Owl decoy worked for you. We have one down at the farm in the barn so it's good to know.

Lots of fun stuff around here! I started 3 mock scrapes yesterday with my first ever use of Johnson Valley Scents Wall Hanger gel. Hoping for good results cause that stuff sure was stank!
Around a 150 lbs of apples, final weed whacking a few areas and made a couple ground blinds on some travel routes I've had my eye on over the years...
See what the net is off of this....
Jesse I'm goi g to finally order some of it and give it a whirl, haven't really ever messed with that type of hunting with attractants but hell don't have many wall hangers not trying it either lol....

Supposed to get some heavy rain tonight and tomorrow so I sowed some clover on the west side of the farm on a main N-S trail.
Put a camera on the trail yesterday. Last year a got one picture of a nice buck on that trail. Plus it's only 100 yds from the house in a heavy brush area.

J James Valley Scents is good stuff,i been using it since the late 80s.
And dont over do it,just takes a small amount as it is strong,i would recommend using the gel.
