Sheds 2020

[THE LLC]

This is pretty cool. Let me put a plug in here for my Spartan Go Cams. I love these things. This is a picture of a young 10 pointer that I've been watching for 2 years. He was an 8 last season. Not a monster, but easily identified. This is a picture of him at my feeder box on Wednesday morning with both sides.

Then yesterday morning he showed up with none. He cracks me up how he always eats from the same end of the box and how he always looks like he is trying to stay as far away as he can and yet stretch over to the feed. Got LOTS of pictures of him doing this for two years. I have a large wheat/clover plot just to the right of the camera that he lived in this past fall.

So, I bought a farm house up close to the property and had to close yesterday, so I rode over early to go check the wheat plot to see if I could find the sheds real quick.

They were laying there, pretty as you please, just about 60 feet from each other. Love being able to get real-time intelligence from those cameras. LOL.

Sweet that's awesome. I have a lot of bucks, more than most I know except David and 1 or two more here in Georgia and it is crazy I don't ever find that many.

Some years we find quite a few and some years we don’t. My wife and I rode down last weekend to pull some cameras I still had out and found the first 2 of the year.

Not sure how to turn those pics, the turn arrows didn’t do anything.

I agree this is totally awesome for ethical hunters.

It is also, if I'm a game manager or warden, my worst nightmare.

I think the idea of cameras that are setup to cell network is amazing, but if it's pumping realtime pictures to a phone, it is such a potential for unethical hunting practices that I foresee legislation in the future.

Knowing a live deer is there, and getting in on him, are two different things though. But I agree.

Thanks Drycreek!!

Yeah, I wasn't saying it's going to be an issue for 95% of the hunting public. It's only going to be people that probably already have borderline ethical practices in place that pose an issue.

I agree. I have one cell camera out of 10/12 cameras that I own. If I could afford to buy and run them I’d have more, but not for deer hunting. I have the one on a hog trap and if I had more, I’d probably use them to kill hogs. I will use any legal means to kill hogs, but I have no use for a cell camera for deer hunting.

I use the one on the hog trap just to see if the gate is tripped. That way I know if I need to pay it a visit !

We’ve done that for years. Sure saves a lot of gas money.
