Big fox squirrel in its mouth I would say. Maybe in the melanistic phase as well

Also, forgot to mention. The camera there is only about 125 yards from father in law’s house in the woods. So I bet those bucks are use to noises & many smells. They may afford some trial & error. Just thinking out loud. I haven’t hunted there this year but will here next few days. Yes, though I...

Good advice. Yes prime rut for this area of the state is in January apparently so I will give it a go. This buck has come out every night I’ve had the camera at this location between 10PM & 1:30AM. I’m hoping like you say that his bedding area cannot be far if he is coming out every single night.

Ya I read that. How it used to be better. Times change for sure

This is in East Feliciana. I've never had a buck on camera this big. Not in Union Parish either. This is the first night I had the camera out too haha. This is on my father in laws land. Been hunting Union parish for 27 years & never seen one that big. I guess bc East Feliciana is closer to the...

That's a nice chunky one there. Yes, I have seen more this year in Union than I have in a long time.

Nice. I hunt East Feliciana by you as well as Union Parish. Only been in East Feliciana starting this season. So far it seems like the deer are a lot bigger down here than in Union Parish.

I have one. My dad bought it for me Christmas 1999. It’s my favorite gun. I’ve had many successful hunts & memories with it. My 9 year old boy loves shooting it too. I have an inexpensive Simmons scope on it. Works just fine for it.

I think he was implying that you were trying to help someone if the buck mostly shows at night how to best get them during the day, not that you were encouraging them to hunt them at night. Sometimes words can be misconstrued when written. As I tell my wife if she has an issue tell me on the...

You’re welcome. Let me know how it goes & what questions you might have.

I can set the settings to taking pictures instantly, 1 min, 3 mins, 5 min, 10 min, 15 or 30 min. I can set sensitivity to low, medium or high. I can set it differently for each camera. Depending on how many deer are walking by a particular area is how I will adjust settings. So if I run out of...

Yes, I keep mine out at all times so that could take some life off of them. There are no storage issues. It automatically deletes photos after 30 days. So if I have a picture I really want to keep I just save it to my phone. Honestly I’m going to stay with spypoint for various reasons. #1 price...

I have purchased 9 spypoint cameras since May 2021. I’m down to 4 that now work. Yes, the price point is great but there has got to be some others out there that can last me more than a year & be more dependable for me. The app is easy to use, pics are good enough quality. They give you 100...

I have purchased 6 spypoint cameras since May 2021. I’m down to 2 that now work. Yes, the price point is great but there has got to be some others out there that can last me more than a year & be more dependable for me. When these 2 go kaput I’m probably going to look at a different brand. The...

Hey Drycreek. Ya good points you bring up. Hoof aging is a lot what we do. So this is what peeked my curiosity. This deer was a 3 point, broke off one side. He weighed 135 pounds. Looked older in the face than a 1.5 yo. We mainly meat hunt where I am. No spikes is pretty much the only rule. We...
