WOW! Do blacktail rut early?  The whitetail rut won't be in full swing for another month.

Cool pics!

Nice pics! Are you using any bait, or just a high traffic area?

I had been dropping a few roadside ditch apples in September.  They are pretty well gone so I'm set up one a trail crossing.  They are on one trail; the other one is in the direction of the camera.  Once that rub showed up I figured the buck(s) would be moving through.

I'd like to get that buck out of the Trailcam Forum and put him in the Deer Hunting Forum, if you know what I mean!  :chuckle:
