It got dry enough to mow some of my walk in roads and trails. I found i can get to stand quieter and get a lot less ticks by mowing..another thing I used to do was to lime and fertilize these mowed roads..the deer love the sweeter more tender grass. This area was logged last year..used to be a nice shady walk to and from tree stand.The timber company will replant with pine trees around December or January. They will push over and burn all the oak trees, ��

there is a ladder stand 30 yards to the right in a small oak hammock. I have taken a few bucks and hogs there before they clear cut around it. There are some good bucks walking in and out of short pines on the left..lots of does to so I may have a good chance at a decent buck in archery season. I mowed here yesterday, there is a road in front of truck..I mowed it down to 2 inches yesterday with zero turn.. I started at 10am and was done by 2pm.. had a couple shooter bucks walk by camera before 8pm. Rained last night and today so newly exposed grass will benefit and provide browse for the deer. For some reason I have not got a hog picture in the last 3 weeks..I'm pretty sure I will get covered up with them shortly..

Put this camera up yesterday. I got a good for our area buck here first afternoon of archery season last year. We have been seeing a big bodied 6 point the last 3 years. For some reason we don't think he has never had more than 6 points. I'm thinking this is him, could be a different buck. Glad to see he made it thru last years season.

Good looking property.

Shame that the logging company will cut and burn the oaks.

Nice buck

This big 6 or one similar has been close enough to me for a shot...But I already filled my 6 point "tag" and let him walk 5 yards from me..We have rules at our hunt Club. One rule is first buck has to be at least a 6 point, second buck needs to have at least 4 points on one side(prefer it to be an 8 point or better)..3rd and final buck has to score at least 100 inches. A 100 inch plus buck is pretty rare on our place. I can only remember one being taken in the last 9 years.
