Title: Whidbey pics-first set
Post by: patton1 on October 13, 2010, 10:30:24 AM: First time for the trail cam this year. Left it out for 6 days and ended up with 345 pics. Mostly does and these 2 little bucks. My 9 year old son gets to hunt this year and that little 2x3 would be a perfect 1st deer. We're are only going to be able to hunt it this year because the guy who owns the property is getting rid of it around the 1st of the year. I'm hoping something a little bigger will pop up but I know he will be more than happy with this buck. We are both really excited for late muzzleloader.

Only a week. I just wanted to see if there was anything even in this area before I wasted any time with it. I still have the trailcam out there so I'm hoping something for me might pop up but either of those 2 bucks would be great for my son's first deer.

Good luck to you and your son!

I know it looks a little ridiculous. I put a bunch out there because I didn't think I would get back out to check it for a couple of weeks and I wanted to see what would come in.
