What is the white pvc strapped to the tree?

LOL good one

for photo opts only

Heres a couple more..

The funny looking 6 with 2 on one side. I believe I watched last, year he wasprettytall for only a 4 pt.. He visited me quite often on stand. No brows what so ever. The last pic of the normal 6 is void of brow tines too. For some reason it's not uncommon here.

Nice Pics!

GR8:

What happens to these deer from year to year? Does your area recieve a lot of pressure? Reason I ask.....that little 4x2 has some neat characteristics that'll make him pretty special, one day.

GREAT photos!

Jeff. There is a large tract of land and swamp just acrossed the "road" that is posted. While my area holds a nice smaller bedding zone when acorns fall most of the deer go into that postedarea. This area is one of those areas where the land-owner lives in Florida..probably inherited it and rarely, if ever, comes here. I'm trying through a 3rd party to gain some permission. I know people hunt there or have..I see old wooden treestands and such, on some of the fringes.

Also adjacent to this large tract is a smaller over grown nasty field type area of 124 acres. Which just sold in the last 3 weeks. The new guy is nice but won't let me hunt or ride an ATV on it anymore (were always allowed before). But he has Brush-hogged everything..looks like he may try and sell the lots off for homes. So I don't know what's gonna happen now. That brushy - field-tangled - mess, held alot of deer. Could help me?? Dunno
