Default It's nice to see one made it through.

I know alot of folks are opposed to using feeders, but I like to use them to attract deer to and keep them on my property. I don't hunt over them, but Ilike to use them to centralize the deer so I can get pics of them and see what kind of deer arearound and what deermade it through the season. Here are a few pics of one nice buck that's frequenting one of my feeding stations and primarily during the daytime. I saw him a couple of times in early bow season, buthe never came in bow range.Hopefully, I'll see him up closenext year.



This pic was taken in early December. Notice how swelled his neck was.



These were taken over the last couple of weeks. His neck has shrunk down alot.

Cool pics John. I hope you didn't feel you had to explain yourself with the feeder. It is your land and legal; period. Nobody elses business. Anxious to see him next year.

That is a good one JD Iwill have to tell my father inlaw to put taller legs on his like yours, the deer like to chew on the slinger wheeltrying to get the corn. The only thing i can get at my feeder is large Toms with beards dragging the ground.

I see why they say Oklahoma is OK. Nice setup and sounds like a good plan to me.
