    Attractant for Camera survey

    I've had luck with it in Louisiana and Kentucky.

    This acidic soil type is in my crop field and old pasture, or do you mean that it was forested historically? That buck in the background needs some tine length. And, that spot there is a mixture of all kinds of bad stuff. It was an old store site or something. I've killed tree of heaven and...

    This one hasn't had an antler on that side for the last 2 years. This year, he's growing out something, but not sure if he'll always be behind on that one. I agree it's probably from being damaged. At his age, and with his history, we may decide to take him. I don't believe it's genetic on this...

    Sweet tooth is making me want to pass up a 5 year old buck now that he's starting to grow out that other side. Not sure what he'll do when he gets to be 6 or older. Not sure my kids or myself will want to pass him this year though. It really is a cool rack.

    Rice bran, if you can get it, works good for camera surveys.

    That wide boy in the background is no slouch either.

    That's a tough one Steve. You have an awesome setup, and it's hard to mess with success like you've had. It seems like what you have now is a hunting setup where you can take advantage of a reliable bed to food transition. I don't know for certain, but it seems like you're in an area that's more...

    First fawn on camera for my place. Judging by its size and previous doe pics, it should be less than a week old. That would put her being bred the first couple days of November.

    Cameras for absentee landowner

    Mine are 10.5 hours away. If there's a problem, I can't just run up and fix it. The main thing I've found is making sure the cameras are setup for changing conditions. Make sure there's not a lot of weeds that will grow up to trigger it. Facing them down or towards a backstop instead of across a...

    Thanks. It's pretty cool to learn about what was here before. I know a geologist who sent me a good bit of info on those, and y'all are in complete agreement. He sent this link about the corral: https://www.uky.edu/KGS/fossils/fossil-month-Acrocyathus.php Also, he sent me a map of my property...

    We have tons of fossils and rocks the kids have brought home. This was a cool piece of fossilized coral my daughter found in the food plot on the last trip. I tell my wife I bought her beachfront property, we were just a little late.

    Looks like the 5 year old one antlered buck we call Sweet tooth may put on some antler growth on that bad side this year.

    One thing I forgot to post was a problem tree I took down. This was a fairly large buckeye tree. I removed it for two reasons. It was producing a ton of shade in an area I wanted more browse production, and it was producing lots of babies that were coming up everywhere in the adjacent edge...

    One of the trees I had killed by basal spraying became a home for a hive of bees.

    This one will be fun to keep up with. The first 2 pictures are from last year. I estimated him to be 2.5 at that time. The second 2 pictures are from this year. Judging from his mass at the bases, he doesn't seem like he'll add much mass this year.
