The wife says no hunting around the house. Plus they are fun to just watch. Plan on trying a small food plot next year

I keep a cam up in my back yard and have a doe and yearling that frequent and bed in my yard, but i also have a yote that comes around too.  I wouldn't shoot anything in the yard, too close to neighbors, only half acre lots here.  Would shoot that yote though.

VO2Max, do you really think you could shoot a deer in MIL's yard?  You would be in the doghouse until Easter at least.

We are seeing way more deer in the yard this year. I wonder of their usual groceries are dried up already and they want the juicy food that gets watered.

Mother in law would be less than pleased but yet she sends me pics of this and other bucks near his size weekly! Theoretically I could set up a blind in the woods behind her home and whack one... But, I'd also never be invited to dinner again!

Nice bucks everyone!

I got a vid of a little spike that came into the yard few nights ago.  The very first buck i've seen back there, and it was right after i put a 3d archery target deer up, haha.

Crazy! Bachelor groups hangin' in your back yard. 

I haven't even seen a deer in my yard this year.  Usually, it is a weekly or bi-weekly occurance.  Nothing!   My tomatoes and apple trees are evidence of their presence.  They've been nocturnal since late last winter.
