Neighborhood Blacktails part 2
« on: May 22, 2010, 04:53:23 PM »
Once again I just got some great pictures of my neighborhood bucks.  :rockin: I was pretty sure I had at least 3 bucks on my first camera setup.  I thought I lowered it enough to get a better view of the bucks, but once again It seemed to miss them and get just ears and some of the racks  :bash:.

Since then I added another camera, sitting on a saltlick covered with a block topper.  It worked well and I got some nice pictures. I now have confirmed 4 bucks visiting my setup.  One small buck and the other three bucks look to have good potential.  I get happy when I see big blacktails! :IBCOOL:  The one with good eyeguards definetly has my attention. :drool: I also got pictures of 1 opossum and raccoon visiting my saltlick setup. 

The trail camera addiction is in full swing.  :tup: Thanks for looking. 




 PLEASE DISREGARD THE DATE, SORRY, I KNOW ITS NOT 2011! :bash:

It's not the size of the trophy that make's it a trophy.

Ridgefire, Here is the link that has information about block topper. 
http://store.evolved.com/home/products/habitat/attractants/Itemnumbertwo.aspx

I don't know if this is best for blacktails.  :dunno: I have heard many things that work best and from my conversations with people that seem to know what they are talking about.  Apples seem to be the best attractant.  I haven't used apples before, but I will put some out next time I check my cameras.  I actually ordered the block topper for whitetails when I lived in Pullman, but I never got a chance to try it out.  Basically, you put out a saltlick of any kind and cover it with block topper and it makes like a candy coat over the saltlick.  Seems to be a good idea and as far as my pictures show the deer came in to check it out.  :twocents:

The block/saltlick I used was an apple flavored saltlick made by evolved habitat.  I figured that since I didn't have apples I might as well use apple flavor.   :twocents:

Let me know what works for you?

Hitman...I wish I had room for you to help take out some deer but I think this will be my honey hole for now.  What awesome spot do you have to share with me?  I might be willing to trade spots...whatcha got for elk problems that I can help you with :bumpin:


Ben, get those pictures...Are you hunting muzzy for both seasons this year?

Mike already posted the pictures from today. Looks like we got a dink and one with some hope. As far as hunting this year, Yep strictly muzzy for me. I just ordered some deer cane and some rack-up mineral. We will have to see how it all works out. Definitely bit by the bug  :chuckle:
It's not the size of the trophy that make's it a trophy.
