Caught this guy several times now on film. This is the best one to share. He's been around a few years, so I'm hoping my son will get him next weekend on his last youth hunt.

Jim, are you hunting public land or a pressured area? I have problem with high pressure and all mature deer tend to go nocturnal towards November. However I agree with lovedr79. Just keep hunting, love makes them do dumb things and they will make a mistake. Also attempt to find bedding areas, as bucks will locate themselves to monitor the path to female bedding areas.

That's tough! Have you tried mock scrapes or buck bombs when you get in stand? Do you know the rut prediction for this year in area? I love getting in right before rifle (week before) which usually leads to day time bucks.

around here mid november the bucks start running does, i mean running them. day and night. grunt, rattle, scent seems to work for me. heck i had the biggest buck under my stand two years ago. i got in a little late, just barely light. as i was getting situated there he was. i hadnt even pulled my crossbow up much less quiver and bolts. and off he went..........

Ha! I know this scenario all too well! I've even met them at the base of my stand in the dark which will surprise the hell outta when they start blowing and yelling in you face.lovedr79 said:

yes. especially does. blowing, stomping, tails in the air. one spot at my buddys place is way up on top of a wooded ridge. i have killed many deer from this stand, but depending on the weather they sometimes will come over the ridge to bed or start foraging early. i have been scared more than once at that stand when the woods came to life while it was still dark.

My son and I ran into this fella in the dark walking back to the cabin Saturday Youth hunt. He was huge and made a great memory. We passed on several small deer waiting for the big ones, his choice.

Did you like that? I couldn't stop laughing. It just looks so happy to be free! Neighbor had a still of it on his cam, and he thought he had a rare piebald deer. LOL

Hey Pan. What camera do you have? Wondering how much space on the SD card the videos take up? Also how hard on the batteries is it taking videos compared to still pictures? I'd like to set my Dad's up to take videos and am just curios if they will quickly fill up the memory card (32gb) and/or run the batteries dead quickly.

I have a wild game innovations $40 special. I would love better but I can't guarantee it will still be there. I use video mode (30sec) and only have a 2gb card. I get about 80-100 videos depending on day vs night. And I change batteries once a month minimum given the activity level. I am thinking I have seen it go a good 2-3 mos before changing sometimes.BigTerp said:

Cool. We haven't changed the batteries on my Dad's yet and it was still at 70% battery life over the weekend. That's about 2 months of it being up and running taking 3 photos every 3 minutes when triggered. I'm going to switch it over to video the next time I'm up there. I think the videos are neat.
