I agree, this sucks for you, but you can learn from this. I experienced what you are going through. My advise is to buy some property. If you're not wealthy enough to purchase on your own, then collaborate with friends or relatives. The joy of ownership makes managing property so much more...

This guy was the one we had hoped to see last year, but never did. I think this is the same deer again this year, although it's somewhat hard to tell due to the lack of detail in last year's pics. But the bladed G2 is what makes me think it's the same deer.

Lots of good points. The big question I would ask is do you have any pictures of him from previous years? IF you've been hunting this property, and IF you have had cameras out an not gotten any pics that clearly are him from the year before, then I'd maybe take a chance and pass him. What's...

On the baiting subject, seems to me video evidence would be pretty damning. Next time you know they are there, simply video them and their bait site, make sure you get good footage. I'd advise talking to them too, but in the last few years there have been incidents where bad things happened, so...

Just to make sure I understand..... You used to hunt a piece of city owned property. The city purchased a small chunk of acreage adjacent to the piece you hunted. As part of the sale price, the owner selling the small adjacent acreage negotiated for himself exclusive hunting rights to the...

Our first card pull. I think we've got 2 pics of the same deer at different scrapes. Here's the first. Then here is the second And I think this is him last year. My Dad let one go last year that he thinks could be this one, thinking he could get better this year. But if he's...

A landowners perspective This issue doesn't only come up in Iowa, it's everywhere I think. When I was a boy who couldn't sleep the whole week before opener of deer season in Wisconsin, my dad, a few of his brothers and brothers-in-law had almost 1000 acres available to hunt. Slowly, as farmers...

Archery95, you are right, the property is anything but flat. I know it's hard to tell much without elevations. I'll try to post a topo of the area as well. The stand you identified is actually in the valley, where two major draws come together as one and head north. It has made for a very good...

First of all, thanks to LC. The obvious question is how did you do that. :) I'll have to play around some more. The farm is located right across the river, in the bluff country on the Wisconsin side. The patch of timber on the East side is two hillsides facing each other, with no real valley...

I'll see what I can do. The photo was taken from google maps, so I'm not sure if there's a way to get a higher resolution or larger picture, but it's worth a shot.

Hi all, new to the site. Not new to the sport, but looking forward to becoming a better hunter through this site. I've attached a photo of my farm, which to date hasn't really seen much for management other than 3 years of watching little bucks walk by. Last year I was fortunate enough to shoot...

Yes you can What you are talking about doing is possible, but not as simple as you think. There are circuits within the cameras that run on less than 6V, so the trick is to have 4 C batteries in the camera, even while it's hooked up to your external home brew battery extension. As long as your...
