Been doing homework on these deer longer than I care to admit but I try to take notes and learn from season to season how to sharpen my game.  Trailcams have been both fun and eye opening  :o considering I've never seen any of the deer I'm hunting - ever.  I am hunting them on faith.  Makes me wonder how many good areas I stumble through and never give it second thought, just because I'm not seeing anything.  If the sign is there, they are there - somewhere...

Its always nice to get a picture of a buck on the hoof and on the ground, it doesnt happen very often.
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

This is one of my favorite photos of my buck.  I love the look of wet blacktail antlers.  This was taken on September 5th.  Oh, and this was just over a mile from where I killed him.
