Trail Cam Pix
 

Here are a couple pix from one of our Trail Cams out in JoDaviess County, IL.

I' m pretty sure this is the same buck, but you never know. The side profile was taken 11-04-03 and the closeup was taken this past Sunda 11-09-03. The head-on shot was on a trail not more than 60 yards from our campsite where our trucks were parked. Obviously this big boy didn' t seem to mind. Judging by stand sightnings and angle of the sun I' m guessing it was taken sometime between 10:30 and 11:30 am. The one hour when he left camp to get some food before returning to our stands around 12:30. doh!

I think he' s poseing so you can tell if he' ll fit on your wall.:D

RE: Trail Cam Pix
 

I don' t think I' ll have a problem making room for him. :D

If you notice in the closeup picture, he' s got a faint double throat patch. That would like pretty nice hanging over my fireplace.

RE: Trail Cam Pix
 

I know where I would be hunting!!!!

If you could get the sun " dimmed" a bit in the first shot then I would be willing to bet that you could see some money or that first shot. It is unsual in terms of angle, distance to deer, clarity, etc... to say the least. Very impressive deer and pics.

That first picture is awesome! It looks as if he has a ton of " majesty" with the light behind him! LOL! I sure hope your huntin that guy!

Good luck,

Yeah, the first picture is pretty neat that' s for sure. The funny thing is that my dad set the camera up in that spot on Saturday afternoon just for kicks. The picture was taken Sunday morning. On Sunday afternoon he decided to change the film out before we left to come home, just to see what kind of pictures were on it. I walked with him to the camera and I said " Man, that thing looks like it' s awful close to the trail. If you get any pictures they' re just gonna be eyes and noses." And sure enough, this one was on there.
