I am not good at guessing a score from trail cam pics...... Any help?

Had these on the camera I picked up tonight. Doe, followed by 2 decent bucks just before 6 PM. If only I had been in my stand!

They were blowing a good 25 or so and had my tree rocking pretty good. And they were not particularly favorable for the stand I was sitting in, but I had to get out. Interestingly enough, most of the deer came from dead down wind and I never got busted. I had an acorn rage buck bomb and...

Finally got back out tonight after having been sick for a week. Got to my stand and in a weeks time the woods have exploded. Within 100 yards of my stand there were 12-15 freshly rubbed trees and several really fresh scrapes. Got in the stand at 3 and saw the first deer at 430. At about...

If folks are looking for advice on tree plantings I suggest you contact your local district forester. They can look up the soils and site conditions and help you pick the right species for the planting area. They also can look at your property and write a stewardship plan. The plan will give...

There were approximately 275 people at the Yellow River State Forest meeting last week. There were over an hour's worth of comments made. The majority were in favor, but there were definitely some that were not. Anyone making comments: please make sure they are coherent and well thought out...

I urge each and every one of you to at least attend one of these meetings before spouting off for 1 side or another. The information presented (I have attended) is very informational and will at least let you form an educated opinion. My opinion is that the benefits of forested land far...
