The next photo is of a nice 4x4 sparring with a scrappy 3x2 who only moments earlier made that rub in the background. I have 32 photos of him working that tree over!
The third photo is that same big 4x4 dogging a hot doe past one of my cams. This is one of my favorite trailcam photos of my entire collection.
6/21 EDIT - I liked the bat photo I just got off one of my cams, so I swapped out the 4x5 buck with this one. ;)

I'll be setting my camera's up tomorrow. I just spent about 2 hours slashing a trail through some blackberry bushes. It finally popped out in the timber, in there for about 5 minutes when I ran into my first deer. I didn't get to look around much because I had to get back home, but my friend and I will be in there tomorrow for sure!

Hey bow4elk I like that fist pic of that big blacktail.......isn't that deer dead now? :chuckle: And did you ever find the sheds to that big nontypical? :o
Yes, I tagged that velvet buck and no, I've not found any sheds from the 4x5 since '07. There are two sets out there somewhere other than where I've looked :bash:
