New Land, First camera pics!

Hey guys,
I just wanted to share my first trail cam pics with ya’ll. We just formed a small club on 300 acres here in the deer poor area of South Carolina. I hear guys say all the time that the deer around here just can’t get big. Well, after a quick scouting session on our new lease,I put out some corn and my new camera in what I thought would be a good spot. It is a hardwood bottom that is up against a HUGE cut-down. After a week I went back to find all the corn gone and 5 pics on the camera. They were all headshots of a couple of does. Lesson one, put the camera low! I moved the camera closer to the trail and put out some more corn. I eased in yesterday just to check it out. The counter said 27 pics after just 2 days. I normally wouldn’t go in there that soon, but I was there helping a friend with his stand. After much kidding from my pal about taking pictures of rabbits, I went home to see what I had. Wow, it was all deer!!! And even a decent one in the bunch! I had 10 pics of this one deer in that 2 day period. I would love to let this guy grow one more year, but I don’t know if I can stand it. Check him out and let me know what you think.
Sorry for writing a book but I am pumped! The bow opener is Friday!!!
