New Bucks

[SWBUCKHNTR]

I have never had cameras out in late season before and I am learning that there are new deer that winter on our farms. I think that is what it is because I dont have any pictures of these deer all year long, from spring thru rut, and now they are showing up and I am getting mutiple pictures of them. Do any of you guys notice this and what are your best ideas to keep them around? I will get pictures of the new ones on here as soon as I can.

This happpens during a cold snowy winter. Seems with more food plots they tend to remember who put the food out on the table and just show up !

I'll second that! Late season hunting can be good if you have late season feed... /forum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif

It might be the only place from December thru the end of the season that doesn't get gun pressure. They find those places where they are safe and they always remember where those places are. Thats what I have found. When I late muzzy hunt I try to look for places where deer are getting pushed out of and where a safe zone might be for them, with some food near by. Most of the time it is successful but not always. Food is a big part of the reason in my opinion. It is just fine with me if they drop their sheds where I can pick them up. Take what you can get, since we can't control where they go.

Sorry it took so long to get the pictures on here but these are the three nicer bucks I have never seen untill I got corn out for them.

This is a nice eight I am real excited about.

I love the split g2 on this guy.

This one just has some pretty nice g2s hopefully puts a little more width and mass on for next year. I have clover, corn, and beans, mixed with switchgrass and timber so hopefully I can keep them through the winter, spring, and summer

Another thing to think about...and it's reiterated with the age class of these bucks, is that this time of the year the 2.5 & 3.5 year olds that made it through are going to become serious about where they call home.

If a big bad a$$ 4.5 year old got taken out, you can bet there will be some competition on who gets to take over his territory.

The food source draws them into view, but the curiosity to have a place of their own is what really brought them to the farm.
