Title: Backyard Bucks
Post by: flashover52 on October 11, 2010, 12:05:21 AM: These two suddenly appeared ....... they only show up late at night.

Anyone have any ideas on how I can get them to start coming around in daylight? ;)

The middle picture seems to show a buck with one longer point on the left side -- which is longer than the fella standing tall in the first picture.

I guess I was assuming the loner was one from the first pic running solo or with his buddy off the camera.

I hope that increases my odds......

I agree. Looks like 3 different bucks. The one with it's head down in the first pic has some odd brow tines or it's a fork horn but it looks like it forks right on top of his head.. Interesting Pics! As for getting them out in the daylight.. Good Luck.

Getting them to come out in the day time is a hard one, I would think that if you can attract some does to your bait the bucks would follow but I have no experience in that area, Good Luck getting one !!!
