Well, it wasn't the big boy, but a really high racked 8 point with super long tines showed up last night about 8:00. He only had about a 17-18 inch spread but probably 10 inch tines. I flipped on the light and he got nervous. I turned it off, got the camera ready and cracked the door, flipped on the light and he stepped behind this tree. I could still see his head. I tried to get a picture at 23 yards with zoom and flash, but it just didn't take. I took one without flash too. He was right on the edge of the flood lights and all I can see is his rump. I took 2 before he left. I tried lightening the picture the MAX amount with my imagining software but still no dice. I got to get a brighter flood. I may hook up my work lights on the patio or maybe use my hand held spot light in one hand and the camera in the other. I'm not paying several hundred dollars for a trail cam to take a picture of a deer I can't hunt. I'll keep trying. I may just climb up in the tree one night about 10 yards away and tie a string to some kind of paddle to activate the motion detector on the floods when he shows. My wife will think I'm NUTS..... but we all know better. Don't we?<img src=icon_smile_clown.gif border=0 align=middle>
